LAS VEGAS (AP) — Menu warnings nearly proved true for a man at a downtown Las Vegas restaurant that offers "Bypass" burgers, "Flatliner" fries and free meals to people over 350 pounds.

Amateur video shows a man being wheeled out of the Heart Attack Grill on a stretcher after a medical episode that restaurant employees say looked like, well, a heart attack.

Eatery owner Jon Basso tells KVVU-TV FOX5 he thought it was a joke when a waitress told him a customer eating a Triple Bypass burger was sweating and shaking.

A Las Vegas fire spokesman tells The Associated Press paramedics were summoned Saturday evening and a man was indeed hospitalized.

Basso says he heard the man is recuperating. His name and the medical condition he suffered weren't released.

Heart Attack Grill...Triple Bypass burger...guy has heart attack. real life is pretty funny sometimes.

Yo dawg, I heard you like heart-attacks, so we put a heart-attack inside your heart-attack burger so you can die while you die.

I'm wondering if the US has more fast-food restaurants (per capita) then any other nation, because looking from the outside it seems to be the case on the surface?

I was laughing before I even clicked the thread!

 

[Dennis]

How could he have known?

 

[Keavy_Rain]

All I can think of now is Al Bundy talking about how he wants to die with a greasy slice in one hand and a greasy hooter in the other.

I feel like this man was in Vegas trying to make Al's dream come true. Sort of like "Leaving Las Vegas" but for morbidly obese perverts with nothing left to live for.

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

I fucking love America

 

[Kaako]

And not a single fuck was given.

Not going to happen, he needs a hand to be in his pants.

 

[Mindlog]

Truth in advertising. Refreshing.

 

[RoboPlato]

I've been waiting for this to happen ever since that place opened.

I can't fathom how anyone in their right mind could eat such a nasty thing. Look at that burger. Holy shit its disgusting.

This isn't a fast food restaurant. This seems like a sit down restaurant that just has fucking bizarro burgers.

 

[Tunic]

Obviously the guy knew what he was getting himself into. There are signs and warnings posted all over the place in there. I love burgers and everything but this place really goes above and beyond.

I was actually in Vegas last month. Lo and behold, my friends wanted to eat at the Heart Attack Grill. Since I'm a health freak, I opted to split one of their Bypass Burgers with a buddy. That was more than enough for me. Two of my other friends decided to have a Triple Bypass EACH! They finished it, but they looked terrible afterwards. The food there is just ok, it's all about the atmosphere and experience. Safe to say that I will never eat there again.
