For First We Feast, I'm Sean Evans and today I'm joined by Link and Rhett.
0:24
Together, they're Rhett and Link. That's right.
0:28
And you probably know them from Good Mythical Morning.
0:29
You can catch them on Rhett and Link's Buddy System on YouTube Red.
0:33
And they're also two of the most prolific taste testers on YouTube.
0:36
Is that a fair characterization?
0:41
Well, we've we've eaten a lot of things.
0:43
I try not to taste it while I'm eating it.
0:45
Well, today we are going to taste and we're going to taste to the max.
0:47
We're doing a little Hot Ones off-season training.
0:51
Now, usually when we do this off-season training, I have my friend Chili Klaus come in and we just pop a reaper. We just mail it in.
0:57
We just phone in the whole show and we just chalk it up to some sort of language barrier.
1:03
I think it's a little bit more hot than my Scandinavian customs.
1:08
But today, we're a little more intellectually driven because we're going to do a game of trivia. the best about us.
1:15
Well, this is like very college professor.
1:20
And so then the stakes are high because if you miss a question, if you get an answer wrong, you have to take a heaping healthy forkful of the spiciest curry in the world.
1:33
But first, an awkward segue to the kitchen so that we know what the hell we're eating for lunch.
1:48
Bhopal curry, which is the spiciest curry in the world.
1:49
In England, they started as a dare where they would add chili flakes or chili pepper to any curry and make it spicy.
1:53
If somebody really is a pain junkie, Bhopal is the way to go.
1:58
So, you guys have eaten Carolina Reapers before.
2:01
I remember 12 hours later I was in the fetal position on the floor.
2:06
When we did the file here in New York, we took it to the next level.
2:07
We created a curry which is the spiciest curry in the world.
2:11
Habaneros, white chili powder, and then came the ghost peppers.
2:14
I met Smoking Ed from PuckerButt.
2:14
That's where I found the Carolina Reaper the first time.
2:18
He's supplying Reaper mash to us. I have chills.
2:21
I'm sweating, and then it goes right through my body over the top of my head and everything's like twisting and contracting.
2:29
When we're actually making the file, we advise the cooks to wear a gas mask.
2:31
It can actually really choke them.
2:40
I got to get out of there. Look, tails.
2:49
Here's what's on the table.
2:49
We have vindaloo, which some people say is the hottest curry that they've ever had.
2:55
But, we didn't come to get the hottest curry that everyone else has had.
2:57
We came to get the hottest curry ever.
2:59
The way the game works, we have 10 trivia questions. I'm not privy to them.
3:03
I don't know what they are. I have no idea.
3:06
I could end up taking 10 bites here. Multiple choice.
3:08
You can play along at home.
3:10
You get an answer wrong, you take a big spoonful or a big forkful of file, and then we fall to the ground, I think.
3:19
I don't know if there are any winners here. Mhm. All right.
