Love how he just tortured someone on screen while describing what's happening to them like a Saw victim
-
You can tell this guy really enjoys what he does. Serious respect to this guy.
-
O.M.G when Bella came in and he said she was going to demonstrate I did not expect she was going to eat the entire reaper like a piece of candy! 😮😮😮 wow.
-
"Guys think they're dying, ..but they're just having a menstrual cramp"... LOL!
-
This guy answered everything in such perfect detail, even though he was peppered with questions.
-
I love the idea that he just carries around his guinness record plaque and is ready to break it out at any moment
-
the fact that he has probably at least 2 or 3 more viable peppers in his warchest to beat his own record is terrifying and inspiring
-
I met a Thai woman in college and she invited me to a party. In the rice were little green peppers sliced very thin. They were the hottest peppers I’d ever eaten and I have been careful ever since because we’re still married.
-
I wish someone would've asked why peppers look more bizzare the hotter they get. The reaper already looks realy strange, but this pepper X thingy is an absolute alien.
-
One of the best videos in this series. I could listen to this guy talk about peppers all day
-
Fascinating video. I was thinking "that's random, bringing in a pepper expert" but I really enjoyed it. He answered the questions really well and clear, and even answered a long-standing question I've had (about how exactly the Scoville scale measures the hotness of peppers).
-
All the WIRED Support people are always so informative and congenial. Such a pleasure to watch!
-
pepper expert called currie, this job was his destiny
-
This is one of my favorite series on YouTube, I just love how all of these experts look and speak exactly how you would expect them to and I mean that in the most flattering way possible. They’re all so charismatic and articulate and I love learning new things this way!
-
She took that pepper like a champ, huh? 🤯
-
MASSIVE PROPS to Wired for still calling it Twitter.
-
I could listen to this guy teach me about anything. He answers so clearly and throughly. Very enjoyable guest here!
-
I got so nervous watching him cut that orange pepper!!!!
-
Some people just talk and you instantly grasp how intelligent they are. This guy is one of them, and he's very intelligent.
-
This was SO fascinating! Love this guy! BTW I lmao at "Guys think they're dying but really it's akin to menstrual cramps." Thanks for that! Haha
