DEATH by egg. It isn't the most glamourous way to shuffle off this mortal coil but that's how it ended for one man after he ate 28 of them - raw.

The young Tunisian man has reportedly died after winning a bet to eat 28 raw eggs in one go.

Dhaou Fatnassi, 20, from the town of Kairouan, swallowed the eggs after his friends challenged him to do so for an undisclosed sum of money.

The young man then experienced stomach pains and was taken to hospital but was pronounced dead on arrival, Shems FM reported.

Are they sure it was from eating the eggs?

[MDboyz]

I bet that one or more of the eggs contain some deadly viruses. Normally, they die from boiling or well cook. I guess not good to eat eggs raw.

I prefer pickled.

I used to put raw eggs into homemade milkshakes when I was young, never did me any harm, but never tried 28 at once

If it were a virus, it wouldn't kill the person in that short amount of time.

Unless it was the T-Virus

You know what this means? We need to ban people. He killed 28 eggs in one sitting.

yes you are... eggs are eaten raw by 1000s of species ... they should not have harmed him to the point of death ... I suspect something else was the cause

While I don't necessarily agree or disagree, what could/would have caused him to die then?

Bloody idiot if you ask me ...

Ask the coroner.

It's not impossible for something to do with the eggs to have killed him; but it wouldn't have been anything to do with any kind of pathogen in them. He died too quickly for that.

Possibly one was poisoned, or more likely, he had some kind of allergic reaction.

Oh Allergic reaction, that would do it. Maybe there was something else in the mix, a drink, some other food or something? A bet this crazy I bet they were at a bar or something.
