What's going on with this guy's gut though? Looks like severe chronic bloating. Has he actually damaged his intestines to the point they are now inflamed or something?
This is literally true. Pepper spray is 2,000,000-5,000,000 scovilles; The Last Dab, which is readily available and actually pretty tasty, is 2,000,000. The hottest relatively common sauces you can buy are 7,000,000-9,000,000--and that's without getting into extract sauces, which can go all the way to pure capsaicin at 16,000,000 but also they taste absolutely awful, something goes terribly wrong in that process. Do not recommend, stick to Ed's methods and use real peppers.
"That was a big mistake!", Ed claims as he talks normally in his gentle voice as if nothing at all has happened. Saying that he can "tolerate" spice is the understatement of the century hahaha
This is a testament to the adaptability of animals. Cannot even fathom how much spice Ed has subjected himself to in order to build up so much tolerance. NGL, I low-key want to see him douse a chicken wing in this sauce and toss it to the mighty Honey Badger just to see what happens! 😅
Just a reminder that this guy sampled the hottest peppers on Earth and ranked them like he was sampling gourmet chocolates. If he thinks a sauce is pretty hot, it can essentially be considered a weapon of mass destruction.
I’m always amazed at how Ed deals with heat. I’m convinced there is no one on this earth that handles it better. He is still able to complete the rest of this video coherently and educate and entertain while internally dying.
There's plenty of people with absolutely insane heat tolerance. As a pepper head myself, I've seen some people that don't even really eat hot stuff, handle super hot stuff better than me! Trust me, theres people that are just built different .
Ed Currie is a mad scientist. My dude is out here creating and consuming literal poison and going 'yeah, not painful enough.' What an absolute champion.
OK, this is the hottest hot sau-- oh wait a minute, let me just drop a few more million SHUs into this and huff the fumes until everyone in the room's skin sloughs off. But, you know, with some ginger and basil in it. Nothing too crazy. Just two quarts of a full-send big mistake, and we'll call it a day.
This guy is a beast, just standing there over the pot like nothing :D. I made some hot sauces with habaneros, bird's eye and tiny bit of dried trinidad scorpions and I had to stir, while standing like 1,5 metres away with my hand outstreched and windows open everywhere in order to not have a coughing fit. I rembember when I microwaved a sandwich with habanero slices on top once with no ventilation whatsoever and it sent everyone on my floor coughing and even went up the stairs to the second floor. Capsaicin fumes are no joke.
It might also be fear. His body knows what’s about to happen. It’s like when you need to pee and you get close to a toilet. His body is getting ready for PAIN.
When Ed says "this is hot", that means I'll never want to try it. I love eating the hottest chillies like reaper but there ain't no way I'm going to pretend I would go anywhere near as calm with that sauce
my first super hot sauce (daves insanity) claimed it could strip floor wax. then I got Ed's Apollo pepper sauce and it was hotter. I can't wait to try the pepper x.
we are not made to survive it, we are the test subjects that pass away so that he can judge the effects to make future hot sauce for more future test subjects.
Smokin Ed suffering like that says it all. I've purchased many of his Reaper sauces and others, and they are fantastic. Remember this is his attempt to make the World's Hottest Hot Sauce.
Thanks Ed, I have been making small batches of hot sauce, on and off for years. With this video there were several nuances and learning moments for me. Again, thank you.
I love the instant fear that is brought with the kick ofnthe peppers!! You had me on the floor 😂😂😂😂 i dabble with the oils and enjoy watching my creations capture them with emotions both physically and facially l😅
Seeing how he chomped down those really hot peppers like candy in the previous episode, this stuff is probably like pouring molten lava in your mouth 😟
I was half-expecting the pH strip to just catch on fire. I like some of the lesser superhots like Bhut Jolokia, but I'm not sure I'm up to trying something _this_ hot. The combination sure does sound delicious, though!
I can't wait to get ahold of the pepper X I use the Carolina reaper in almost everything I cook the flavor that pepper is beyond amazing if it is anything like the reaper I'm sure I'll fall in love with it 😍
Just so everyone knows, Pepper X is confirmed real now by Guinness Book of World Records. It is officially the world's hottest pepper. Since the capsaicin scale is logarithmic, it's about 3x hotter than the Carolina Reaper. It made Chili Klaus speechless and mumbling like a baby on Hot Ones. 'Nuff said.
I wanna see him get bear maced and be like "ok, I'm getting some heat in my eyes, nose, mouth, and entire face in general, but there's no real FLAVOR... 4/10"
Yknow, even though I love spicy food, I dont really like American hot sauce. Im just not a fan of acidity and vinegar. Still, interesting to see Ed make his hot sauce
I agree with you... i started making my not vinegary hot sauce because I didn't like the ones i bought... you can make the ph lower even without adding too much vinegar
I want him to go on Hot Ones, but don't tell his opponent who he is. The other person will be bent ober crying while Smokin' Ed over here is just eating all the wings like candy.
*Gets pepper sprayed*
Ed : This gives an earthy tone
Not much citrus though 😅
Ba dum tiss
What's going on with this guy's gut though? Looks like severe chronic bloating. Has he actually damaged his intestines to the point they are now inflamed or something?
Ed: Is that turmeric I taste?
😂😂😂😂
At some point this stops being a hot sauce and starts being a chemical weapon
Point you aerosol it rest is fair game
LOL
That point was overtaken some million scoville units ago.

I don't think he sees the difference anymore
I met Ed once at a pepper festival. He was exactly like he is in this video. He was super passionate and fun. Rock on Ed!
Me too. I had no idea who he was. I just bought reaper seeds there and he shook my hand.
That is what happens when you are "forced" to leave the drug business. You get passionate about different highs...
I plan on making a trip to Fort Mill and asking some breeding tips. I love growing these super hots. The plant itself is so beautiful
@@kaschafe22 he is prolly driving the van around during most of the day. i've been to Puckerbutt a few dozen times but i've only met him a few.
Same he made me try all his sauces at once😂
"That was a big mistake!", Ed claims as he talks normally in his gentle voice as if nothing at all has happened. Saying that he can "tolerate" spice is the understatement of the century hahaha

This dude needs to go on a diet
I mean get a job of having to test peppers and give a few years, you’ll have a tolerance similar to this guys
He is like Dr. Frankenstein scared of his own monster that he created. Lol
You ought to see him eat the entire Pepper X. Casual "I am in agony" face.
"It's so hot that I'm I'm having trouble breathing." "And now I'm gonna make it hotter." lol, this dude is a legend.
That’s wing ready
"Oops" - Smokin Ed
Lol.
Serious : Cant we make a pepperspray out of it!?
He eats raw Carolina Reapers daily just for fun and that doesn't affect him. So when something affects him, it's scary.
Just a reminder that this guy sampled the hottest peppers on Earth and ranked them like he was sampling gourmet chocolates.
If he thinks a sauce is pretty hot, it can essentially be considered a weapon of mass destruction.
Weapon of double m(ass) destruction. Remember, what goes in has to come out eventually :D
@@Kenpachi1985I can assure you that you get more used to it coming out than it getting in
It's essentially a pepper spray now :)
Dude created the current 2 hottest peppers too lol
look at those teeth
6:24 I've never seen Ed respond like that at all to anything and I'm pretty sure I've seen all of his videos. Incredible!!!
I'm genuinely terrified of any sauce that's too aggressive for Ed
He ate pure capsaicin once. He could tolerate it
Oh sorry, it was twice, actually
didn't he say he was in the fetal position after that 🤣@@accountnamewithheld
@@5Metalgod5 Yes. He said it was a serious mistake.
@@EzioAuditoreDaFirenze99 it was a big mistake the first time. So of course he did it again...
I feel like Ed's body is desperately pleading with him to stop, to absolutely no avail. Legend.
yeah he was getting shaky there for awhile
@@isaacbueckert1979i thought he had a condition
He looks like onlyusemeblade.
When your body looks like it has been bitten by a rattlesnake, you know that you had a little too much hot sauce.
@@HappySmilingDog-d7u He definitely has a condition or gets anxious in front of cameras, I've noticed him shaking in other videos as well
When Smokin' Ed says something is hot, that is freaking hot. Dude doesn't even blink with some of these mega hot peppers.
I’m always amazed at how Ed deals with heat. I’m convinced there is no one on this earth that handles it better. He is still able to complete the rest of this video coherently and educate and entertain while internally dying.
@jean-baptisteroche9610
Johnny Scoville makes super hots look like he's chewing on a jalapeño
Shahina Waseem and Johnny Scoville would give Ed a run for his money. They're all insane🤪
David blaine
@@hunterdanz5887 that’s true
There's plenty of people with absolutely insane heat tolerance. As a pepper head myself, I've seen some people that don't even really eat hot stuff, handle super hot stuff better than me! Trust me, theres people that are just built different .
Ed Currie is a mad scientist. My dude is out here creating and consuming literal poison and going 'yeah, not painful enough.' What an absolute champion.
Literal poison? Are peppers considered poison?
@MrRpres0088 Capsaicin is considered an irritant, because it isnt indended to cause real harm.

But, you know, with some ginger and basil in it. Nothing too crazy. Just two quarts of a full-send big mistake, and we'll call it a day.
"full-send big mistake" would be an amazing hot sauce name
First time I see Ed suffering... The guy is a legend.
Terrifying, actually. I want nothing to do with this 😂
he had a capsacin video where he eat pure 15 million scoville. He was on the floor writhing in pain. Then he did it a second time.
@@epicow_1973 To quote him: "that was the stupidest thing I've ever done. So the second time I did it..."
This guy looks like he's physically ill. Something's wrong inside.
@@epicow_1973pure capsaicin is 16 million Scoville.
That’s not hot sauce. That’s a one way ticket to breaking rules of the Geneva Convention.
“I can still see… need to add some more pepper.”
-Ed Currie
I laughed so hard when I initially read this comment.
I never get tired of Ed!
I love how ed clearly knows what he’s doing and can handle it, but he isn’t gonna play badass- like, ‘Yup that was ****** brutal, my face hurts.’
When Ed has a slight reaction to the hottness of the peppers, you know it's HOT.
This guy is a beast, just standing there over the pot like nothing :D.

Wish some of the crew jumped in for some testing 😂😂
They would actually go into cardiac arrest lol.
i feel like the cameramans eyes are just pure water at this point and or fire
The crew was surely feeling it without tasting anything 😂
You don't need to taste that sauce. You just need to be in the same room 😂
yeah they are still alive and it's better that way XD
When he said, "I can still see." Exposed how rigorous his pepper testing process really is...
Next: Pepper Master Ed Currie on Hot Ones!
I'd love to see Sean interview someone that can hold a straight face.
@@ianvaldez3886 Also, Ed's homebrew replacing the final dab.
Ed has done a few videos with Sean.
Ed saying "oops" might be the most terrifying sound you could ever hear in a kitchen
The shakes he gets and his mood at the experience tells me he's likely addicted to the adrenaline rush
it's just parkinson dude
It might also be fear. His body knows what’s about to happen. It’s like when you need to pee and you get close to a toilet. His body is getting ready for PAIN.
9:05 when you change mid sentence to another, you know the pain is real 😂😂😂😂
9:30 into the video "My whole body is telling me that was just a big mistake" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I like how he's honest with how the sauce feels. But it still looks unfazed
When Ed says "this is hot", that means I'll never want to try it. I love eating the hottest chillies like reaper but there ain't no way I'm going to pretend I would go anywhere near as calm with that sauce
You know Smokin’ Ed Currie is about to drop pepper knowledge on you when he puts his hand on his hips.
"You always need to go mild before you go wild" - keeping this one
I absolutely LOVE Ed!! Always entertaining and smart.
If you want smart look at Troy Primeaux and his 7 Pot Primo, not Ed Currie and his "Carolina Reaper"....
@@jasonstrickland9245Listed at 1.4m shu, CR is listed at 1.6m shu. Whats your point?
@@jasonstrickland9245 that one like must be your own XD, troy doesn't touch Ed's Carolina Reaper, and now his pepper x
6:28 you know it’s hot when even HE reacts like that
That immersion blender is probably toast for anything but peppers now lol
my first super hot sauce (daves insanity) claimed it could strip floor wax. then I got Ed's Apollo pepper sauce and it was hotter. I can't wait to try the pepper x.
Ed is probably my fav dude who does thede videos, based purely on the raw recklessness he brings to every video 😂
If he's affected by it, how will us mere mortals survive tasting this? 😂
we are not made to survive it, we are the test subjects that pass away so that he can judge the effects to make future hot sauce for more future test subjects.
Smokin Ed suffering like that says it all. I've purchased many of his Reaper sauces and others, and they are fantastic.
Remember this is his attempt to make the World's Hottest Hot Sauce.
I cautiously wanna try that sauce, with some conditions:
1. With antacids on hand
2. Within walking distance to the bathroom at an ER
4:36 “well-rounded flavor” 😂
I love these videos!
He is crazy. But awesome.
"I'm having trouble breathing"
- Ed said calmly
My guy just mixing two different batches of lava together.
If it trips up Ed then it is very freaking hot
If Ed sneezes in a room, everyone gets pepper sprayed. That was brutal.😮 This is like secret service level hot sauce.
thanks for all the recent Ed videos - more please! that guy rules!
ed currie is a legend
Thanks Ed, I have been making small batches of hot sauce, on and off for years. With this video there were several nuances and learning moments for me. Again, thank you.
now i'd love whole epicurious team taste it lmao
"I'm not looking forward to this-" 5:28
***tastes it anyways***
😵💫
more videos with Ed!!
That was a fun video! Thanks for sharing!
You know the hot sauce is hot if Ed can't catch his breath.
I'm just curious, how do you manage the bathroom situation, and the effects after consumption? Thanks in ADVANCE lol
8:52 This is the very moment I was compelled to smash the "like" button. Total pro! 💯
I love the instant fear that is brought with the kick ofnthe peppers!! You had me on the floor 😂😂😂😂 i dabble with the oils and enjoy watching my creations capture them with emotions both physically and facially l😅
The poor people doing the cleanup on set with the pepper puree and spicy air
Gotta wear gas masks when you clean up spicy air testing. Hope they go with vintage, straight out of WWI.
Love this guy! Keep doing what you're doing Ed
To get this reaction out of Ed this sauce would turn a normal human into a puddle of goo
Loved his Dirty Jobs episode. Cool company.
There's no such thing as hot sauce. When it comes to Smokin Ed Currie
I love when his hands were shaking, they make the proceeding pop-up shake too. haha. Super crazy.
You known a hot sauce is insane if *this guy* is affected by it this much
I've learned to prefer powdered pepper, because it lets me use any sauce I want and crank up the heat with minimal effect on the flavor.
What great timing! I just got some super hots in the mail today and was wondering what to do with them
I love how his name is Ed Currie and he is a pepper and chilli expert 😂😂
"I think we're done with the pepper though..." lmao
Spills a drop on the floor. Burns through the floor.
Ah yes, the tiny variations in salt flavour will make so much difference 😂
Love how his voice changed and started to get the shakes 😂
Seeing how he chomped down those really hot peppers like candy in the previous episode, this stuff is probably like pouring molten lava in your mouth 😟
Nobel Peace prize in chemistry to YOU! You are the best in food chemistry!!!😮😮😮
We need more of him.
Great video! I am curious if Ed's shaking later on is because of nerves or because of the effect of the pepper
ed is shaking after a bite of the hot sauce.... omg
Nah he’s always shaking nowadays
3:00 “What have I done…..”
I was half-expecting the pH strip to just catch on fire. I like some of the lesser superhots like Bhut Jolokia, but I'm not sure I'm up to trying something _this_ hot. The combination sure does sound delicious, though!
At this point just crush up some pure capsaicin crystals and snort it. You can call it: "Satan's 8-Ball"
I can't wait to get ahold of the pepper X I use the Carolina reaper in almost everything I cook the flavor that pepper is beyond amazing if it is anything like the reaper I'm sure I'll fall in love with it 😍
I love Ed he’s like evil mad pepper scientist he loves to bring tears to our eyes
Give some to me. I’ll eat it.
Famous last words
I can already hear the grim reaper pulling up
Yep! So will I!
The bugs in your coffin will be eating it too
The intro 😂😂😂 if he’s having that reaction, I’d have a heart attack
Just so everyone knows, Pepper X is confirmed real now by Guinness Book of World Records. It is officially the world's hottest pepper. Since the capsaicin scale is logarithmic, it's about 3x hotter than the Carolina Reaper.
It made Chili Klaus speechless and mumbling like a baby on Hot Ones. 'Nuff said.
2:59 lmao he's like "what did I just make...."
Yeah i don´t think i could eat this^^
I am already dreading the trinidad scorpions growing in my garden^^
I love how his dopamine starts spiking after the first two samples and he just flys into yolo mode
He reacts to the first two tests like I react to anything with habaneros.
He literally calls habaneros "not hot"
@@PeterJDeer Yes, that's the joke.
@@Zikar that was a joke?
I wanna see him get bear maced and be like "ok, I'm getting some heat in my eyes, nose, mouth, and entire face in general, but there's no real FLAVOR... 4/10"
Love that he tests pH too. Ginger and turmeric sound perfect in this!
love? isn't that standard if you don't want botulism?
He put ginger and turmeric in this -_-
I’d love some (edible) hot sauce recipes! Would be fun to cook along
He just explained everything. Be creative
He basically did explain everything. Just swap the too hot peppers for ones that are milder and you enjoy.
Does anybody have a link to seeds or where I can order starts/cuttings for Pepper X? Has Ed made them available yet?
No and you don’t really know much of it, not even how accurate and true the 3.000.000 shu claim is
I love spicy, but this guy is trying to destroy himself.
“You always need to go mild before you go wild”
I’m gonna nick that line. For what other than chilli sauce? I don’t know yet
Yknow, even though I love spicy food, I dont really like American hot sauce. Im just not a fan of acidity and vinegar. Still, interesting to see Ed make his hot sauce
What kind of heat do you prefer?
America makes a wide variety. Many that aren't vinegar based.
I agree with you... i started making my not vinegary hot sauce because I didn't like the ones i bought... you can make the ph lower even without adding too much vinegar
Taste test 3 was the funniest reaction I've ever seen 😂😂😂
a civilian needs to try this hot sauce for reference.
I think it would traumatize the average person LOL
Ethical constraints prevent it
Hot takes is here 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I want him to go on Hot Ones, but don't tell his opponent who he is. The other person will be bent ober crying while Smokin' Ed over here is just eating all the wings like candy.
Lets get him on there!!
@@thelingeringartist Do it with MatPat
Ed is a stud! I love this guy!
Whelp there's no longer a reason to try to make hot sauce. Ed made it hotter and better.
Peppermaster should give the hot ones host this
