With the rise of social media and online livestreaming platforms in recent times, many Mukbang YouTubers have emerged. Essentially, executing this type of content is not difficult, as all you have to do is sit and eat on camera, creating an appetizing experience for the thousands of viewers watching. However, despite its simplicity, the negative impact on health is certainly something that cannot be overlooked, as exemplified by the case of Wang Tongtong – a YouTuber who has been making waves on social media recently.
She may appear somewhat older, but in reality, this YouTuber named Wang is only 20 years old, standing at 1.60 meters tall and weighing 40 kg. This raises a lot of questions about how someone who indulges so much in Mukbang clips can weigh only 40 kg. She has explained this with a somewhat forced reason: genetics. Specifically, according to Wang, her family is very thin, and no matter how much they eat, they just can’t gain weight. She even went to the hospital for a check-up, but everything regarding her digestive system was normal. The YouTuber claims that she is always in a state of hunger and eats a variety of foods. This is also why her livestream channel has garnered over 4 million followers in a short time.
However, there are quite a few rumors surrounding her. Specifically, many people claim that several times during her streams, Wang has left the table and some even reported hearing sounds resembling vomiting. Some believe that Wang vomits all the food beforehand to continue eating for her viewers, evidenced by the times her teeth suddenly appear shiny, quite different from after she leaves the livestream seat.
In response to these rumors, Wang even intensified her menu during a livestream. However, just minutes after going live, the female YouTuber suddenly started eating slowly, her complexion turning pale. Although she was still trying to stuff food into her mouth, she ultimately couldn’t hold on any longer. As she was about to get up and leave, she unexpectedly fainted live on air, leaving viewers terrified. Fortunately, nothing serious happened in the end.
However, it seems that this incident is not enough to deter Wang. Evidence of this is that she has recently returned to streaming with more Mukbang content. In her latest stream, the female YouTuber even dedicated a full 3 hours to eating a buffet – an act that has garnered a lot of respect from the online community.
