Death by Quadruple Bypass Burger: The Heart Attack Grill, in Chandler, Arizona, offers free food to anyone who weighs over 25 stoneA fast food restaurant in the U.S. has provoked outrage by offering free food to morbidly obese customers.
The Heart Attack Grill will pick up the bill for any of their customers who weigh more than 25 stone.
The restaurant sells calorie laden fare with names such as Quadruple Bypass Burgers and Flatline Fries.
Waitresses dressed as nurses deliver the food to the restaurant in Chandler, Arizona.
They have hired a 46 stone man Blair Rivers to star in a tongue-in-cheek advert promoting the special offer.
'Other diets don't deliver results,' River says in a new YouTube ad for the restaurant.
But I've made incredible progress on the Heart Attack Grill diet. A couple months ago, I was wearing these,' he adds, holding up a small-waisted pair of pants.
The restaurant is run by a former nutrionist Jon Basso who used to run a Jenny Craig weight loss diet centre.
Basso is also featured in the YouTube ad, in which he wears a lab coat and identifies himself as 'Dr Jon, Founder of the Heart Attack Grill Diet.'
Temptation: The food is served by waitresses dressed as nurses'I personally guarantee a stable upward progression of body weight while you're enjoying great tasting foods," he says with a smile.
'Along with a cold beer and cigarette, it's a diet you can stick to for life.'
The cheeky advert then lists the side affects from eating their food.
Side effects may include sudden weight gain, repeated increase of wardrobe size, back pain, male breast growth, loss of sexual partners, lung cancer, tooth decay and liver sclerosis stroke. In some cases mild death may occur.'
Two out of three adults in the U.S. is either over weight or obese according to the latest figures.
The restaurant does warn customers they will not be getting off lightly when they chose from the menu which includes French fries cooked lard.
A sign at the entrance reads. 'Go away. If you come in this place, it’s going to kill you.'
