10,000 times hotter than tabasco. Should've had a tablespoon of sugar handy. I didn't see any tears, so he did good though.

Brave young lad. I grew some this year, then dried them. They're HOT alright.
Live to love, love to live.

#1 White Sugar works the best.

There are no receptors in the tongue that detect "hotness". They can detect other flavors (sweet, sour, etc.) in the hot sauce but the actual "hotness' is detected by pain receptors. Super hot sauces are just causing pain.
FWIW I LOVE hot food. Just sayin'.

Is it tolerance to pain or intolerance that sets the limit on the Scoville scale?

Cute kid. He's fearless  ! Although I'd probably give it a shot too.

Brave kid ! I always thought milk was the stuff to have to help get rid of the pain ? This would be a great game to play with some friends. I'm surprised no-one in the USA had thought of this: Hell's Pizza "Pizza Roulette"
