Did you know, that when they dug the rescue hole for the Chilean miners, it took them a long time to start drilling because before they could drill they had a team of people eating weetabix. Using special bowls which fit over the drill head, they each added in 3 weetabix a day, with cold milk. They then eat the weetabix, but leave the sloshy leftover bit in the bottom. Then, crucially - they forget to put the bowl in the dishwasher until the next day.

Thus they were able to manufacture a drill head tipped with the hardest substance in the known universe, which is 24hr dried on weetabix/milk mix.

Thus ensuring the safe rescue of the miners.
every days a school day!

...However if its competitive eating we are talking about: Timed, Jacobs cracker eating is where its at!.. no butter - just dry. Causes serious face ache.

You are all doing it wrong. Weetabix sarnies are the only way to go. Take a weetabix, spread with butter and jam. Eat. Fan bloody tastic. Must be strawberry jam.

Yeah, not really a favourite though. Just turns into a big bowl of mush.

You're not eating them quickly enough, if you use milk, yoghurt honey & sugar, the honey and yoghurt delay the mush stage.

I can stack 4 side on in one large desert bowl with 2 laid flat on top add supplementaries and then brim with semi skimmed and I'm set for the day.

Strange - I never have milk on them. Just a bit of marg and can eat about 6 if im reasonably hungry at night to fill the gap.

Perhaps we should have a world record attempt but please no milk.
I've eaten Weetabix, butter and cheese for as long as I can remember. People always think it's odd until they try it.
With milk it's six in a pyrex bowl, add milk and stir to a consistent slop, then add another six broken up to maintain some crunch.

As an obvious test of our manhood at 15, me and a couple of mates had a weetabix (weet-bix in Australia) competition on this. As I recall, I maxed out at 15 with the winner downing 16 and the last place 13. Still don't know how I did it and can't imagine my movements were very good for the next 24 hours or so. good times though.

Usually have 2 with warm milk and some sugar, however the most I have ever managed was 6. I quite like adding some cornflakes or rice krispies into the mix as well

I have 6 most mornings. Sometimes when i'm too lazy to cook anything for tea i'll just eat 12 weetabix, don't feel at all full after it so i don't see why 24 would be too difficult.

Edited to add: IIRC there's less than 200 calories in 2 weetabix with semi-skimmed milk, so anyone having just 2 for breakfast must be starving by mid-morning!

Dunno, but when I was about 16 or 17, I used to have a mixing bowl with 9 Weetabix, a desertspoon of sugar and abour three-quarters of a pint of milk, every weekdays morning. I was about 5'10" and no more than 11.5 stone. (Don't know where I used to put it.)
Straight out the other end I should imagine.

Pish! South African Weetbix are where it's at. I reckon they're about 50% bigger than they are here. Much chunkier and thicker, and with none of the rounded edges.

Edit for pic:
