Bizarre moment a model takes on family-sized food challenge and eats 7,000-calorie KFC meal in just 20 minutes

  • A New Zealand model has polished off a 7,000 calorie KFC feast in 19 minutes 
  • Nala Zisser, also a medical student, has been doing eating contests for five years
  • The 26-year-old said she was 'stoked' at the feat shared on her YouTube account

An ex-model has made an unlikely name for herself as a competitive eater, gauging on a full KFC Family Feast in under 20 minutes in a recent video. 

Nala Zisser, 26, from New Zealand, has been trying her hand at eating competitions for about five years - claiming she has munched her way through tonnes of food. 

The video uploaded to her YouTube channel last Thursday shows Ms Zisser seated at a table in front of the pile of food which contains ten chicken pieces, a large plain gravy, large fries, a large coleslaw, and a two-litre Fanta soda.

The feast weighs in at a whopping 7,141 calories and is enough to feed a family of six, Ms Zisser - at 170cm tall and 55kg - said. 

'I can't wait to eat it, my game plan is to finish as quickly as possible. I'm going to start with a piece of chicken,' the model says before chomping on a chicken drumstick. 

She then moves onto the chips 'while they're still hot' but let's viewers in on one of the tricks of the trade. 

'I'm just going to put the chips in my mouth and then drink some gravy,' she says as she sips from the huge gravy container. 

She explains the sauce is thinner than usual because she left out the 'fake' potato which she is no a fan of. 

At the five minute mark she had polished off the chips and is onto her fourth piece of chicken saying her progress is good despite her talking.

She then moves onto the coleslaw - which she strangely chooses to eat with the tiny included plastic spoon - and the full sugar Fanta.

At just over 19 minutes she polishes off the last of the chicken and gulps down the final remnants of Fanta - with almost a minute to spare for the challenge. 

'I'm stoked. That was a lot of food. I can't move,' she says with a burp. 

 The video has been viewed by more than 30,800 people with the vast majority impressed by the feat.

'Under 20min is absolutely crazy. Awesome, I need to get some KFC now,' on person said.

'When you burp - so funny, yet necessary. Great job,' another said. 

'Amazing. I'm a big lad but wow. Ten pieces, sides and a drink. Where do you put it?' added a third. 

Ms Zisser won the Miss Earth New Zealand competition in 2013. 

She was schedule to compete in the Miss Earth 2013 finals in the Philippines that year but had to miss the event because of food poisoning. 

That has not deterred the medical student from her competitive eating hobby which was prompted by her mother who suggested she'd do well in a local pizza eating competition. 

To her surprise she beat '19 big dudes' in the contest and has been entering the events consistently for the last five years. 

Zisser's YouTube account chronicles such food feats as wolfing down 10 Burger King Whoppers in 17 minutes, devouring a 1kg burrito in just under 100 seconds, and consuming a 2.2-pound jar of Nutella in under four minutes.
