Tiny hamster takes on competitive eater Takeru Kobayashi in hotdog eating contest

This adorable viral video from HelloDenizen is answering a long-unanswered question: Could a hamster beat competitive eater Takeru Kobayashi in a hotdog-eating contest?

The stage was set. The tiny hamster sat before a table, ready for his handler to hand him one tiny hotdog — made of grapes, dates and carrots — at a time, while Kobayashi prepared to inhale the stack of regular hotdogs before him.

After consuming a few hotdogs, however, it became clear that Kobayashi was intimidated by his pint-size opponent.

Never underestimate the rodent.

Earlier this year, HelloDenizen uploaded an equally adorable video of tiny hamsters eating burritos.

They also held a birthday party for a hedgehog.

Sometimes love is best expressed through tiny food,” HelloDenizen wrote on YouTube.

We’d have to agree.
