I eat significantly more eggs than that already.

Which probably isn't great for you.

It depends, though, on what "significantly more" means. Twice the recommended dosage is less than ideal, but OP is asking about eating 35x the recommended daily allowance every day. The dietary equivalent of drinking 8 liters of Mountain Dew a day.

Probably about twice that, although I bet I could pull off 60 eggs in a day at.least for one day.

It's about 9 pounds of egg. So definitely doable if you spread them out. Probably wouldn't feel great the next day, but for 60 million, who cares?

My family's currently mortgaging a house. 60 million USD is enough to buy 900 houses in that housing complex. Yes, fucking please. 4 kg of eggs, divided into three (I read the max comfortable capacity of a stomach is ~2 liters before you start running into problems), isn't really a life-threatening act. Full yes. Though I'll also do some fasting before action, and then hire a private doctor for some time.

For the method, IMO boiling + salt is more than enough.

Eh, raw egg white has somewhat unpleasant texture but that's about it. There's already raw yolk in fried eggs (infact, it's a feature).

Scramble the eggs, compact them, should be good to go.

And you'd suffer increasingly serious malnutrition from presumably eating little other than eggs.

I'm surprised such dangerous nutritional advice is in a Disney movie.

I love Disney and I think for the most part its a great guiding light for children; this is obviously an exception.

It's not dangerous because no one would take it as advice. It is obvious to anyone that the cartoon man saying that he eats huge amounts of eggs is no reason to do the same. Besides, he's the villain, he's in the wrong, he's a bad man.
