David Beckham has admitted he worried he would end up running like a snail on the pitch - after he one ate a record 32 escargots in one four hour sitting.
The 46-year-old was playing for Paris Saint-Germain at the time he ate the snails at Chez L'Ami, and he says he put extra effort in at training afterwards for fear the giant meal would affect his fitness.
Food lover Becks said: "My record of eating escargots is 32 at one dinner. They're big. They come in trays of six or nine. I was in there with Victoria once and we were in there for about four hours and had the most amazing wine.
