A watermelon-eating competition which was held in a water park in Chongqing has given residents a way to cool off in the hot summer. The competition was held by the organizer to help keep visitors cool, as the temperature's been hovering around 38 degrees Celsius in the city. Competitors who eat the watermelon quickly and cleanly will get a ticket to the water park worth 60 yuan. 100 watermelons were eaten up and 400 tickets were awarded during the contest.
