Japanese Giant Pumpkin
The 23rd annual Giant Pumpkin Contest was held on the weekend in Kagawa-ken. This years winner is shown in the video. the pumpkin weighed 508.4 kilograms. That's a lot of pumpkin.
I wonder what they were feeding the soil to make one that big.
The winner of the even is planning to enter his giant pumpkin in the US contest this October in Orange County.
... and after that they'll probably make some pumpkin soup.
What is the biggest pumpkin you have ever seen?

Wow that's one huge pumpkin! I'm guessing they're feeding them with some kind of pumpkin steroids...

definitely need to have that pumpkin tested for all banned substances ^_^. Good job it is not running the 100 metres race.
