The Big Bird, The Bird, Prenzlauerberg, Berlin

Thanks to Ramsay for sending this one in via the forums! What is the Big Bird you may ask? No, it isn't a guy in an oversized yellow bird costume, but rather one of Berlin's biggest burgers! It's the Big Bird, a 750g meat pattie in a burger, served with fries and all the usual favorites. The challenge: Eat the burger and fries all by yourself in 45 minutes and it's free, otherwise it'll cost you $19. Still searching for pics and stories, but for the time being, check out the video. It's in German, and I've got no idea what they're talking about (translations in the comments very welcome!)

(From the menu) THE BIG BIRD*: You eat this burger, its FREE. 750 grams of beef with the works and a big pile of fries. You eat everything on your plate...by yourself...everything...and you dont pay...If you fail or cheat...19.-

the guy with the beard is telling about how he (an american) has opened this restaurant a year ago because he says that it's very hard to find decent american food in berlin or even restaurants run by amercians. they do everything themselves and only use fresh prodcuts, no frozen stuff und just wanted to bring the american eating and drinking culture to berlin.
he also tells about the bird that is beeing grilled throughout the video which he smacked over the head with a beer bottle when he was drunk one night but i didn't really get that part ;)
