Not even lightning and heavy rain could stop Joey Chestnut on Tuesday.

After a delay of almost two hours for inclement weather, Chestnut continued his dominance at the annual Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest, winning his 16th title in 17 years.

Chestnut ate 62 hot dogs and buns during the 10-minute contest in front of cheering spectators during the Fourth of July spectacle on Coney Island in New York. Runner-up Geoffrey Esper ate 49 hot dogs.

“What a rollercoaster emotionally,'' Chestnut said during ESPN's telecast, referring to the weather delay. "They told us it was canceled. We weren’t sure we were going to eat today, and I’m just happy. It’s the Fourth of July and I got to eat some hot dogs and get a win.’’
