Dhaou Fatnassi from El Baten, a settlement near the northeastern city of Kairouan, bet with a group of his friends that he would be able to eat 30 raw eggs for an undisclosed sum of money, Tunisia's Shems FM radio station reported on Wednesday.
"Doctors were called in after the young man felt strong stomach pains, but he died on the way," Ria Novosti news agency quoted the radio as saying.
The cause of his death is yet to be established, the report said.
In a similar incident in October, a 32-year-old man who had won a cockroach-eating competition in Florida died shortly
After swallowing dozens of the live roaches and worms.
