Skyrim + Bacon = BACONBORN!

Kotaku AU

BACONBORN! Fus ro BACON! I don’t know where the inspiration for this came from, and I don’t know why anyone thought this would be a good idea, but you know the iconic Iron Helmet from Skyrim? Harley Morenstein, the brains behind Epic Meal Time, made one in real life. Out of bacon.

The incredible thing about the whole process is that, not only did he make this thing from bacon — which is a massive achievement in itself — he also cooked it. Then he wore it. Make no mistake ladies and gentlemen — this is a functioning Bacon helmet. It’s all too real.

I am the BACONBORN!

Also — want to see how one player got to level 35 on Skyrim without killing a single thing? Head here!

Thanks ShiggyNinty!

        Hm? God no I’m not one of THOSE people. I just thought the image suited better than “But.. why would you do that??!!”

        Don’t worry, I’ll stick to text from now on. I’d hate to give the wrong impression.

    Harley Morenstein? I remember this. Sure I do. The $50,000, the Polo Lounge, on the boulevard. Morenstein was in the white Chevy convertible. This is really something.
    I’m sure it doesn’t add up to anything in particulars. Just a line of inquiry. Much obliged. One more thing – what about the meat? What does that mean?? How does that translate? Maybe I’m not looking at this the right way around, and maybe I don’t care to.

      I’m reading all of your posts in Peter Falk’s voice. You haven’t quite got the wording correct, but A+ for effort.

    Why am I not surprised that as soon as I saw the title and picture without reading the article that I knew this was Epic Meal Time.
