This screenshot does not do the actual cheese eating justice. They basically put cones on the contestants (like the ones that you put on your cat/dog to keep them from licking after surgery), then grated Parmesan directly into their mouths for a minute to see how much they could eat. And they were competing against their previous best, which had competed against their previous best. It was chaos. Game Changer is an amazing show

I mean, fuck Boeing and the death still seems suspicious. But to claim that there was no police investigation is just lying. Suspect a cover-up or frame or whatever if you want, but seems like there was a pretty thorough investigation: https://www.wdbj7.com/2024/05/18/police-release-investigation-report-boeing-whistleblower-death/

Fantastic movie, one of the underrated Ghibli ones! Great animation and storytelling! Also, I love that while there's some vague "oh it's because he was disillusioned with stuff" in outside documents, they basically never say in the movie why he's a pig. Everyone just kind of accepts it.
