Canadian Man Sets World Record by Eating 135 Chili Peppers in 7 Minutes
In a display of endurance and stomach determination, a Canadian man has set a new world record by devouring a whopping 135 chili peppers in just seven minutes. The man, whose name has not been released yet, completed the feat during a chili pepper-eating contest held in Toronto over the weekend.
According to witnesses, the man started off slow, munching down on 50 of the world’s spiciest chili peppers in just under 7 minutes and 49.2 seconds. But then, the real challenge began. With sweat pouring down his face and tears streaming down his cheeks, the man proceeded to eat 85 more peppers, leaving the audience in awe.
Spectators cheered as the man continued to stuff his face with the fiery fruit. Some even started chanting his name, urging him to keep going until he reached the ultimate goal of 150 peppers. But the man, perhaps realizing the futility of such a task, finally called it quits after chomping down on 135 peppers in total.
When asked about his victory, the man simply shrugged and said, “I eat spicy food all the time. It’s no big deal.” It’s unclear whether he suffered any ill effects from his chili pepper binge, but witnesses reported seeing him guzzling down milk and water in an attempt to quell the burning sensation in his mouth and stomach.
Despite the man’s impressive feat, experts are warning against attempting to replicate it at home. The world’s hottest chili peppers can reach levels of up to 2.2 million Scoville units, making them extremely dangerous for those with a low tolerance for spice or a sensitive digestive system.
So, while the Canadian man’s record-breaking accomplishment may be impressive, it’s important to remember that it’s not worth risking your health for a few moments of glory. Instead, stick to a more sensible diet, and save the fiery peppers for a special occasion. After all, a little spice is good for you – in moderation, that is.
