THE Central Coast’s own human vacuum Isaac Harding-Davis has smashed his own record time by devouring a 1.8kg sushi platter for six people in less than two minutes­.

The 19-year-old from ­Ourimbah won return flights to Japan after he set a new mark in Niji Sushi Bar’s sixth annual eating competition in Kingsford last week.

Mr Harding-Davis set the record last year when he polished off the monster platter in 2:24 minutes — almost three times faster than the previous record of 7:50 minutes­.

The competitive eater went one better this year finishing a dash under two minutes at 1:59.

Of the 30 competitors who took part, Mr Harding-Davis said just five managed to finish within 15 minutes to have their $50 entry fee refunded­.

The keen rugby player — who held the record in 2014 for eating 10 cheeseburgers in the shortest time — said he was looking forward to flying to Tokyo to watch the NSW Waratahs take on the Japanese Sunwolves in the Super Rugby on July 2 before trying to eat his way across the country.

“There are a number of ­famous eating challenges in Japan which many have cash prizes for,” he said.

Despite finishing a minute and a half quicker than the next person Mr Harding-Davis described the competition at last week’s sushi challenge as “tight”.

“My fellow competitive eater friend Rhys ‘the Beast’ Hocking came up from ­Wollongong to compete,” he said.

“He has competed internationally alongside me in America and is a competent foe.

“He came in second with a time of 3:30 (minutes) with everyone else quite behind that.”

While he doesn’t actually chew the food Mr Harding-Davis said the sushi still tasted “delicious”.

“The advice I gave to fellow competitors was to chew as little as possible and to try and eat at a constant pace,” Mr Harding-Davis said.

“On the day I didn’t eat much and drank lots of fluids to help stretch my stomach earlier in the day to prepare.”
