They call it the Titanic but just like its namesake it hasn't proved unsinkable. 
Bosses at Telford eaterie Oscar's created what they claim to be the biggest burger in Britain as a challenge to entice diners.
The £15 meal comes with the guarantee that anyone who can clear their plates in 45 minutes - including the chips, salad and a pint of milkshake - will win a T-shirt which proudly proclaims 'I Sank The Titanic'.
It comes with salad: The Titanic burger, which diners need to eat inside 45 minutes to win a t-shirt

Their picture will also be hung on the wall of honour at the diner attached to the Odeon Cinema in the Shorpshire town.  
Its belly-shaking 5,000 calories is thought to deliver more than double the recommended daily calorie intake for an average man.
Squashed between a normal burger bun is two 1lb beef patties, an 8oz chicken breast, six rashers of bacon, two potato waffles, four onion rings, lettuce, onion and pickles.

Since Oscar's started up its offer two weeks ago around 100 have been prepared to take on the challenge - and only 15 had triumphed. 
Oscar's owner Tony Kular said: 'We wanted to do something a bit quirky by introducing a food or an eating challenge to the restaurant.
'People have come from all over, from Wales to Birmingham to try it out.  
'Not many have succeeded.'
