Gregory Foster just set the world record, for some reason, of eating 10 Carolina reaper peppers in 35 seconds… 35 seconds!

Each are 1.6 million Scoville. For comparison, a Jalapeño pepper can get up to 8,000 Scoville.

Foster has a stomach for them. He set his own mark early this year with a recognized record of 3 Carolina reapers in 8.72 seconds

If you’ve taken the one chip challenge, you know how your stomach feels afterwards. Foster’s was so upset there was an evacuation 5 minutes after the record was set.

How would he describe the taste of eating 10 Carolina reapers? It’s like eating “liquid lava” he said.
