The gallon of milk challenge

When I first met Zach Schumacher, I happened to mention a challenge that a housemate and myself had once set each other. It was to drink two pints of ice-cold milk straight out of the fridge without stopping. After 2 days preperation he announced that he was ready and delivered an incredible performance, drinking both pints in under a minute. See the incredible video here:



That was 2003. A year later and we met again, but this time the stakes were higher. Encouraged by his relatively easy victory over the UK two pint challenge, Zach was ready for the legendary US gallon of milk in one hour challenge. See the image below to watch the highlights...
