His channel was dedicated to have videos showing all of his crazy eating stunts and eating challenges. His videos feature a very excessive amount of food, fast food challenges and restaurant challenges. In most videos, Erik is usually shown eating over 10,000+ calories. These challenges usually include creative ways of reviewing food, such as shouting "W.O.W" when he eats something he likes, or holding his hand out and showing the food is "fire". Erik also usually makes jokes regarding the food he eats (for example pouring Ranch sauce over a donut). Challenges can also consist of consuming an even higher number of calories, an example video being an 50,000 calorie video. His videos also include unique random facts that appear to the side while eating to interest the viewer. He also shows the exercise he does in-between meals if the calorie challenge is throughout the day.
In his second channel where he covers the health effects in the long term the insane calorie challenges toll up, he usually describes the aftermath of his occasional extreme calorie challenges. In his videos, he also sometimes includes "Stomach capacity meters" showing how full he is to eat more food.
== History ==
He discovered his ability to eat large amounts of food and then founded this channel in August 2013 to share his ability with the world. Ever since then, his channel was dedicated to have videos showing all of his crazy eating stunts and eating challenges. He has gained lots of subscribers and views since then, currently owning 1,680,000 suscribers. 
His old content usually was livestreams regarding keeping fit and healthy.
In October 2021, he officially became an Ironman (an athelete that does extremely tough exercise sessions throughout a period of time). This shows that he is always keeping healthy even though he consumes extreme amounts of calories every video.
