Kid eats a Carolina Reaper pepper, the aftermath is epic!

What’s better than watching people eat super hot peppers and bragging about it on YouTube? Watching a 9-year-old eat a super hot pepper and freaking out about it on YouTube.
Meet YouTuber Pikachu The Pokemon. He may only be in fourth grade but nothing’s going to stop him from eating a Carolina Reaper. You know, the world’s hottest chili pepper, averaging a 1,569,300 on the Scoville scale with peak levels of over 2,200,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU). For comparison, a jalapeño pepper ranges from 1,000 – 4,000 SHU.

During a follow-up video, Pikachu The Pokemon explains that he felt his throat was on fire after eating the chili and that it felt like ‘Satan was burning me’. It looked like it, too.
