A friend of mine and I ate a Naga Morich today, and let me tell you this is the hottest pepper I EVER ate...and I grew it in my garden....It felt like my tongue was branded and 2" thick before it eventually went almost completely numb!
The pain in my mouth and throat and lips lasted about 30 minutes min all

I have nevertrieed that yet, nor do I know where to buy it. I prolly would though if I found it.
I went over to my neighbors house last night.
I told him I had a pepper from my garden for him to try. I cut off a piece and gave it to him.
I told himdont eat it yet, that it is 5x hotter than a reg habanero. but b4 I finished telling him he already threw it in his mouth...lol
Then he is like...what?? OHH shit, and started drooling and panicking.
I grew several types of hot peppers, one was a plant from walmart labeled habanero showing an ordinary orange habanero. Well they are red and small, kinda hot, but taste terrible!! Wouldn't u know it that plant produces hundreds of them, while the others good tasting and really hot strains produce a dozen or 2 each...lol

The Hot Sauce High
All about the burn and why we like it.
A friend of mine once asked me, "Why in the world would you eat something that is that freaking hot?" Well, I think I have figured it out. I like the hot sauce high. Let me explain.
When we eat hot sauce, which is made from chili peppers, we feel a burn. What causes that burn is a chemical called capsaicin. Capsaicin is found in the white pith around the seeds and in the tissues and membranes of the pepper. This chemical bonds to pain receptors in the mouth causing the burn. So what is it that I mean by the "hot sauce high"?
The high that hot sauce gives us comes from the body's natural reaction to pain. When we feel pain our body produces a chemical in the pituitary gland and hypothalamus called endorphins. Endorphins are the human body's naturally produced narcotic pain killers. Endorphins will go to work killing pain and cause a feeling of euphoria.
You have surely heard of runner's high, well I think we also get a hot sauce high.
Another way to think about the hot sauce high is to equate it with sex. Endorphins are also released when we have an orgasm giving us that euphoric, relaxed and contented feeling. So a hot sauce high is our little orgasm of sorts. So my dear friend, that is why I like to eat something that is that freaking hot.

hahahah yup i've done that one as well. once. kind of thing you remember about the next time lol
the chilli story:
me n my buddy went to the local beer and chilli fest. we were both ill for 2 days. started off with a 30 minute burn the guy giving it out said it was pretty fierce. was named 'Satans shit' by this time we'd had a fair few brews when i saw him bee lining for me sayin dude there's a hotter one! being drunk i said well we've come this far...
i should have guessed when the dude was wearing a chilli pepper Hawaiian shirt, and had a glint in his eye. he was serving the stuff on a cocktail stick. like one dip into a vial and smearing it onto a stamp sized piece of bread.
uncontrollable pain in the abdomen my body rejected it. i threw up in a portaloo but it was too late the damage was done. i could feel this stuff literally snaking its way round every bend in my intestines. sweat pouring out my face.
they banned him from giving it out after 20 minutes as the line of grown men in tears outside was bad publicity for the event. later we got home and googled the dude. lo and behold he'd been banned from other events for the same crime.
this is a vid of where else he was banned, ( not me in the vid) [youtube]dw5jIOwD-o[/youtube] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fdw5jIOwD-o he claims 10 minute burn i'd say about 3 days from both ends. turns out the stuff is one step up from the chilli rating for mace.
if you see this man. don't eat anything he gives you. in fact kick him square in the nuts
