Take That Kobayashi!

The "ghost chili", or bhut jolokia as it's known in India, is recognized by The Guinness Book of Records as the world's hottest chili, having a Scoville rating of 1 million units, which makes it 125 to 400 times hotter than your run-of-the-mill jalapeño. That's why it's amazing that an Indian woman, Anadita Dutta Tamuly, ate 51 of them in two minutes last Friday to set a new world record. Not to mention that when she was finished she grabbed handfuls of the chili seeds and smeared them into her eyes. As a follow-up she's considering drinking boiling oil, cutting her left hand off with a spoon, or putting a red hot poker in one ear so it comes out the other.
