If someone asked me to eat what might possibly be one of the spiciest peppers in the world, I would simply say no.

That said, some people are built different. These people will see such a daring, stupid idea and think, “Eh, at least it will make good TV.”

This reporter is one of those people. Upon hearing that someone may have formulated the world’s spiciest pepper, she decided to venture out to the farm and nibble on it herself.

The aftermath of the whole thing is pretty surreal.
