When spicy chicken experts set up shop in the eastern part of Singapore on Nov. 21, they knew what they were doing.
There are tons of buffalo wings fans in the city.
To prove this and to kick off the opening of Wings World Singapore in style, the restaurant hosted two buffalo wing eating competitions — one required participants to finish 30 buffalo wings in the fastest time possible, while the other challenged them to 10 of Wings World’s spiciest offerings, the Scorpion chilli pepper wings.

32-year-old sales executive Sean Lee won the first one, beating the others with a timing of four minutes and 26 seconds.

The second challenge was won by someone else from the sales industry, Chenxu Weitian, who completed the attempt in an impressive 52 seconds.
And it’s no wonder — both winners are eating contest regulars.
