I didn't watch the vid because I'm on dialup, but I assume you are talking about a bhut jolokia. It rates 1,041,427 units on the Scoville scale.
A jalapeņo rates 8,000 units.

Habanero is the hottest thing I've ever touched, and those rate at around 300k+. Would never wanna eat a Naga or anything else up near that scale.

I have a few Bhut Jolokia plants in the backyard. Haven't yet worked up the courage to eat one.

I found some hot sauce in a small stand in Ohio, it was $99 for 1 ounce and it rated 7.1 million on the scoville scale. You have to sign a wavier to purchase it, the owner said to date he has only sold 2 bottles. It's called the source, check it out.

I grew a bhut jolokia plant last year.  If you dry and grind up the fruit, it makes some great red pepper.  Just had some on my bagel this morning.  Mmmmm good!

I could probably do it since Habaneros don't seem to dent me much. That said,  I was no Dennis Mills. This guy could eat the biggest habaneros whole routinely. My forays were on the order of occasional - though I often enjoy diced Habs on a salad or in a nice sauce.

The one thing I'd about which warn anyone who chooses to do this: the subsequent dookie's going to be nice and toasty.

This is the stuff I use, Blair's ultra death sauce.  1.1 million scollvies.  Its not to bad unless put a huge amount.  Ill make a thing of easy mac up and put 3-4 drops and its perfect.  Ive found anything more than 6 drops, your crying for relief.

I think there's a tolerance buildup - I've noticed it subjectively. She's probably just used to it.

Maybe he doesn't sell any because of the price?

I don't understand hot for the sake of hot if it doesn't add anything to the flavor.  I like jalepenoes.  The smell makes my mouth water.  They don't always like me though.

I'm with you on this. Screw Dave AND his Insanity Sauce. It tastes like bottled pepper spray - and probably is.

Try the Hab, though - much more tasty than the jalapeno or the serrano... a bit fruity around all that heat.
