                                According to the Big Texan Steak Ranch, nearly 4,800 people have successfully consumed the entire 72 oz steak meal since its inception in 1962, proving it is possible, though difficult, to eat a 72 oz steak. This feat of gluttony challenges the limits of the human digestive system and requires significant mental and physical fortitude to complete within the one-hour time limit.
