American hero and competitive eater Joey Chestnut just won Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest for the 10th time by scarfing down 72 (!) hot dogs.

The annual event, held on Coney Island, N.Y., requires participants to eat as many hot dogs as possible in a 10-minute period.*

He's done it! @joeyjaws wins the #NathansHotDogEatingContest with an u**fficial 72 hot dogs and buns. What a legend.
