Cooking For The World’s Heaviest Sumo Wrestler (600 LBS)
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 05. 2024
- Ever had a 10,000 calorie lunch? Yama is the heaviest sumo wrestler in the world and heaviest Japanese person ever. He challenged me to see if I could cook enough wagyu, sushi, mochi, and other foods for his lunch.

We almost got 7 million beaches
u gotta be kidding me. 3 of them already, now it's becoming 4!
CAN'T WAIT
Let’s go Nick
Thank you so much Nick! The food was amazing!! I had so much fun!
Woah, didn't expect to come across you while watching random comments.
Hello dude
Yummy food am i right, hehehehaw
I was having a poor day, but seeing your contagious laughs, smiles, and take on life cheered me up a little. Thank you, Yama!
W yama
Yama seems like such a friendly guy. Despite his little knowledge of English, he sounded so happy and chill when he interacted with Nick. He seems like a gentle giant
@Trick or Treat bruh shut up how are you gonna live if you don't breath oxygen
Lol that's rude
Except when he gets in the ring, that's when he becomes a beast.
Or what?
You expect that he's gonna walk over Nick since he's a sumo wrestler
Dude was drinking a lot of sake. Of course he was happy and chill!
I love how Yama is so positive he’s always giggling and laughing😂. I love the end part “HEY DON”T TOUCH MY MOCHI” so iconic
They're often very nice! They have a festival once a year where they bless children and interact a lot with families, and they're expected to be upstanding in public.
@@HulklingsBoyfriendThe one thing that sets Yama apart from a number of high ranking sumo I've been exposed to is how well he has adapted to the more "carefree" views of the USA while here. I know that comes from the time he has spent outside of Japan, but it still shows how much effort he has put in to show respect for his hosts be they individuals or nations.
I love when he pulls out the mochi pounding hammer
The question is where did he got that mochi hammer
i read giggling as jiggling lolll
Wow i’m so impressed! I’m Japanese and I’ve seen many ‘Americanized’ Japanese dishes saying authentic japanese cuisine which is disappointing tho. But you Nick, seem to have respect for traditional cuisine and make quality dishes! So satisfying and thanks for your beautiful dishes and interesting video!!! Love from Japan
I want to know where he learned to cook Japanese dishes like that. If he had a teacher they deserve some respect for teaching him right, if he didn't have a teacher I find it all the more impressive.
Gordon thought him
@@truekurayami Probably a combination of the internet, friends/acquaintances , and practice.
I’ve never seen a sumo wrestler without a kind soul. They’re just so friendly.
They eat like kings and get lots of sleep. Low stress life
have you ever seen a sumo wrestler??? not saying they are mean but how many have you truly seen???
Yeah, sumo wrestlers outside of Japan are kind and friendly... but in Japan... oof, that's a different story. Especially when it comes to relationships between higher ranked rikishi and lower ranked rikishi in the stable.
Search for Koji Kitao and how he treated his "servants" who were lower ranked rikishi from his stable. He's the only Yokozuna who never won a tournament. And there's a reason why it happened. He was young and he was close to winning a couple of times before he was promoted to the highest rank... but when he was promoted, he started to feel pressure and he was treating his "servants" wrong and he even had an altercation with his stablemaster that ended in him being thrown out from sumo.
wouldnt want to be in the circle with them tho
my dad actually flew a plane full of a team of sumo wrestlers from japan. he was telling me how huge and nice they were 😂
Yama is so wholesome. Him and nick get along so well
Bots are taking over CZcams
I was about to say this, this video is so wholesome
Mf bound to die from a heart attack
@@chrome1018 American footballers and boxers get dementia and alzheimers, ronny Coleman can barely move now. sometimes ill health can be a result of being the top of a field, doesn't change OPs point about him being a nice and wholesome dude.
Nick dosent seem to have another option
yama seems so nice, the way he laughs is adorable
I cant bro this whole video was so sweet and cute😭😭 when yama got served the food, the cute laughs and smiles and how he expressed himself during it in a different language i found adorable bless his heart bro😇💗
The best thing about Nick is that he feels joy in feeding others which is rare and his expressions are not fake. He truly depicts the fact that for a chef the satisfaction of the person eating is the most important. It wasn't a comedy or skit but the video was so fulfilling that I was all smiles. Nick was happy cooking and so was Yama when he was eating. I'm not a sumo wrestler or an actor but I hope ill be able to eat nick's full course meal one day.
Typical npc comment
Don't most passionate chefs love feeding others tho
@@nhatquangpham476 they mostly feed their own fam or friends but Nick invites all kinds of people from all over the world and cooks for them. It's not as simple as feeding. I think so it's just my opinion

Can we appreciate this wholesome man's flexibility? Like I'm assuming that many people can't do a split. That's impressive!
i appreciate truly impresive
some fat people like him actually have a lot of muscle underneath
Yes, cause they may look only fat. But in reality the fat % in their body isn't that high. The muscle they have under that fat is impressive. They need to be fat to have a lower gravity point
@@manuelzumbo9259 You're confusing something. They do have high fat percentage but not visceral fat
@@nhatquangpham476 yup..they have almost none of visceral fat,which is amazing,considering their appearance..all of their fat is subcutaneous fat...
That's also means that they r very healthy..
Man, I just *love* this guy's personality! Just pure gold.
8:43 that face on the meat😂😊. Props to the editors ❤
Wow. Yama has the wholesome personality. He even amazed with Nick's cooking skill and the wagyu beef's certificate. And also, dang it Manny. Let Yama finish his food.

Next time he’ll cook under gunpoint.
@@beyondwilline3634 probably
@@beyondwilline3634 What's he gonna be cooking?? Mushroom stew simmered in beef broth?? Chocolate smoothie mixed with coconut flesh??
Its crazzy how many times Yama said "thank you"!🤣 So Loyal and kindhearted😇
The noises he made while eating helped you authenticate the quality of food Nick serves
I love Nick nodding to what Yama is saying in Japanese as if he understood everything
man why so much bots
Well, he probably knows most if not all of the food terms. Like if I asked someone what kinda pizza they like and I heard "niku" I would assume it's meat lovers.
i think it's common courtesy to do so. even if he didn't hear the interpreter yet, Nick knows he'll hear a translation right after. nodding is respectful to yama so he knows nick is, at least in some way, listening
FR
He was good!
As a Japanese national, it has always been a delight to see how Nick respects Japanese dishes. Even though he is still a learner, a real quick learner for that matter, he never imposes a western modified version of our food and that alone is a testament to his humble personality. Big fan.
i am a big fan of japanese dishes hope i get to eat in japan one day, i heard brazil has one of the best japanese cuisine outside of well... Japan of course but as a brazilian i am saddened on how much we modify it idk if it is worldwide bit we deepfry sushi not that it is bad it tastes gre.
@@Brunothechillman that's because Brazil is the country with the most Japanese/Japanese descendants. (except Japan of course)
@@JakeGittes84 yes i forgot that part thanks for mentioning it :D
@@Brunothechillman There is nothing wrong with modifying food, in a lot of ways the blend of culture and cuisine needed to make it happen is extraordinary. Of course tasting truly authentic food is a completely different experience as well, for that I like to go to local message boards and restaurant websites because it generally outlines the experience and the ingredient sourcing and such, hope this helps!
@@PawsitivelyQuestionable yeah i know man like i love them hotrolls also known as deep fried sushi
He looks dangerous but actually has a funny, sweet and cute personality 😭😭
I was meant to watch a walkthrough on Subnautica below zero, but ended up watching this! Love Japanese cooking, and nice to see a interesting things about Sumo wrestlers!
The fact that he eats so neatly unlike other people
*cough cough* _nikocado avocado_
@@UltimateTroubleOfficial 😳
@@UltimateTroubleOfficial yeah nikocado is probably a similar size to yama exept yama eats neatly and doesnt make a mess with takis and hot noodles
@@copysquid Nikocado and Yama are very different. Nikocado avocado ways less than Yama but Nikocado avocado is very out of shape. Yama may seem huge (because he is) but he is very athletic and very strong. Also, Yama is considered pretty healthy because he eats pretty healthy foods (even if it is a large quantity) and he exercises a lot and when I say a lot I mean a LOT.
@@henjajohn9031 how long will it takes to make him a small man?
山さん is very popular here in JP and he is known for being kind and gentle besides the first impression of the giant scary dude.
If you understand Japanese and the culture, you can pick up some feedback from Yama san that the translations aren’t capable of express. From the choice of words to the facial expressions you can see that he really liked all of the food but some truly impressed him. That comes from a person that’s used to have high quality food all the time.
The colab was awesome and thanks to the good work Nick does those kinds of special moments are possible. Keep it up!
great comment thank you for the insight
are u japanese ..??
im Japanese.but I've never know and seen him haha

Sake might have something to do with it lol
DONT TOUCH MY MOCHI!!!!
@@Someone-ji6xn sorry baby Yama 🥵
@@yummyapplestroodle LMAO
Probably cause he can't understand English all that well
Yama genuinely just seems so nice. He must be a great person to have around
That's what I thought too, would love to hang out with him
jesse james west did a youtube video with yama too, its a great video as well they spend a whole day together. Id recommend it if you liked yama
@@kashmoneywii .
Not if your a bad cook
I thought so to, he seems so cool.
Watching Yama enjoying his food makes him appreciative of food.
Thank you Nick, that’s was so entertaining to watch!
Seeing how happy Yama was while being presented the waguy certificates was really wholesome. He seems like such a friendly giant.

@@Never_gonna_give_you_up789 They really need an auto ban flag on accounts with text or telegram in the name

Dude this was my first video I randomly watched and Nick is now my favorite CZcamsr 😅
''Hey Don't touch my mochi!'' was really funny at the end and Yama is such a nice and friendly guy
Honestly love Yama-San, He’s everywhere in many movies I watch and some songs I know, but who knew I’d see Nick cook for him
Such a kind guy!
@You're welcome BREATHH AIRRR
I do too. He's so wholesome, he really brings a fun happy vibe to the video and just overall
Thank you
@@YAMAlivinglife No way you just commented!!! Honestly you made the video really funny and gave it a happy vibe, you seem so kind
yama seems such a great and calm guy
All the food Nick cooks looks tasty and it looks very satisfying!!! 😍
"DON'T TOUCH MY MOCHI!" that man is the true definition of fear and just "Sumo" in general.
Very very true
Yep
That is how much he likes eating 🥣 👍🏼
@isabellafaller8916 r/woooosh
Ik right
Yama is so down to earth. He's a wonderful human being. I wish there were more people like him. Watch more of Yama. He's awesome!
So you're the guy with all the cool gadgets shoved up his... you know what lol
@@teratism_ cringe🤡
@@teratism_ Hahaha, yeah, pretty much.
@@teratism_this is why you have no subs boy
Until you touch his mochi.
The last thank you melted my heart ❤
I love how he go's "thank youuuuuu"
I can't tell who seemed more delighted by this experience: Nick or Yama. Nick was so excited to talk and learn from Yama, and Yama seemed so happy to share the information! And the look he gave over those certificates! You made a core memory for this guy!
Yama seems so kind and the amount of food is crazy, that could feed my whole family of four for like 3-4 days
definitely not :P .... 10k calories is like 4 grown persons daily nutrition
@@danielminister8414I be eating like 1-2k calories a day so it could probably feed me for about 8 days

@@Ricky-gx3ns yeah that definitely real!
@@Ricky-gx3ns he has a lots of subscribers!

It’s hard to come by someone with as much respect for who your cooking for as you. As a culinary artist you cook and treat those you cook for as family. Massive respect to you keep doing what you do!
おもてなし
Yama seems like a good guy, nick keep up the good work
Nick and Yama doing a video together great! In my opinion the part when manny says: here let me take that last piece of your sushi, and then Yama says oh no no no
Yama makes me feel so good just watching him eat and speak... For someone so important, he seems so down to earth! What a pleasure this video has been! Yama was the VIP and he made his VIP presence felt, even though Nick's video is always about the food, Yama took the spotlight with absolutely no effort! Really, What a joy to watch... Thrice!

Nick is like the youtuber version of gordon and he sounds like he is so happy all the time and he seems like he is a really nice person.
Its crazy how sumo wrestlers bodies' work. They can remain incredibly flexible while being so incredibly big. Most people are either fat and can barely move, or they are thin and flexible. Also props to Yama for bein such a chill guy with Nick
I’d deem myself ‘thin’ I can’t touch my toes or bend much because I will pull something.
@@ahuman1729that’s just a skill issue

I can't stand people saying sumo wrestlers are out of shape. This 600 pound man did a full split. That's unbelievable.
Couple tips from a sushi chef:
Your rice won’t stick if you wipe the hangiri (wooden tub/barrel) with a wet cloth before use. Second tip is you don’t have to gently pour the rice vinegar mixture and fan it over the rice. You can just pour it over normally, it does the exact same thing and is much faster.

BRO Respect 💪
actually, the story of salmon sushi not being prominent in japan is really cool. Pacific Salmon, the salmon near japan, is full of parasites, so a norwegian man, with Atlantic salmon, tries bringing it to japanese cuisine. It took about 10 years to get Japanese chefs and businessmen to even try the salmon because they didnt believe they wouldnt get parasites. Still to this day its not super common
Not sure how it's not super common, when you can get salmon nigiri in basically every sushi/sashimi place in Japan o.o
So pacific salmon is bad? Thats not true ive tried chilean salmon and is very good

People usually stereotype Sumo Wrestlers as big overweight men, but they train more than most of the people saying that. They work really hard, and it is a real sport. It's not a joke. Eating is just a part of it, that is needed to support the sport they compete in.
