Someone commented on the facebook post that they should have bread and lemon available for him afterward. Something about the bread helping absorb it, and biting into lemon to also bring relief Dontknow

I ordered some quality internets from vq. I will give them to anyone that records this for me.
You, sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. Please feel free to use code ORANGUTAN for $10 off your next order of $500 or more when you choose next-day shipping at regular price.

Right now it's just the hot peppers and internets, but I hope to be able to expand very soon to offer a variety of products. For example there is a lovely fall line of llama training gear being released next month--but the buyer I sent to Andorra claims he's been abducted by Nepalese Ghurkas for violating some Buddhist tradition about not tripping on lotus flowers while you're hiking. Dontknow In any case I'm also trying to break into the top hat/monocle market but all the suppliers with reasonable prices are in China. Annoyed I'm not interested in offering my customers cheap mass-manufactured products so hopefully I'll find a decent craftsman elsewhere soon.

Stay tuned! woot

"The smallest morsels can flavor a sauce so intensely it's barely edible. Eating a raw sliver causes watering eyes and a runny nose. An entire chili is an all-out assault on the senses, akin to swigging a cocktail of battery acid and glass shards."


Yep...I'll be here.

This...and Hell's Kitchen...that's my entertainment for the night.

Okay...I don't know if anyone has said this already, and I don't want to be a spoil-sport, but in the interest of full-disclosure (and CMownA from a legal perspective, since I will be watching)...I just want to throw this out there, so that the eater is properly informed prior to making his decision:

Man Killed by Hot Pepper

A young man died after eating a super-hot pepper sauce as part of a competition with a friend.

Andrew Lee, 33, challenged his girlfriends brother to a contest to see who could eat the spiciest sauce that he could create.

The fork-lift truck driver, who wanted to cook for a living, prepared a tomato sauce made with red chillies grown on his fathers allotment. After eating it, however, he suffered intense discomfort and itching. The following morning he was found dead, possibly after suffering a heart attack.

He apparently got into bed at 2.30am and started scratching all over. His girlfriend scratched his back until he fell asleep. She woke up and he had gone. It is incredible. Who would have thought he could have died from eating chilli sauce? We dont know of anything else that could have caused his death. The postmortem showed no heart problems.

Apparently the capsicum in chiles can harm or even kill people who have a vulnerability to it.

"Capsicum sprays and gels can potentially kill people who have a heart condition or a respiratory illness, as they can cause increased heart rate and restrict breathing." http://www.smh.com.au/articles/20...84068.html



That's the only sane thing I plan to say on the topic.

Carry on...

JUST after. When he's thinking, 'gee, this isn't so bad,' right before it really starts to heat up.

I love how in all the videos, the people have plenty of time to finish chewing and swallow... and you can see almost to the second when they realize they've made a horrible, horrible mistake. laugh out loud

If the guy started itching it sounds like an allergic reaction.



He has seen all of the same videos that we have. Facepalm
