Kid Eats Hottest Pepper in the World, Immediately Regrets It

"The first few chews were very hot but just about manageable. Then the volcano erupted."

Video published to YouTube Friday shows a 9-year-old eat a Carolina Reaper Pepper – and almost immediately regret it.

The pepper is considered to be the hottest pepper in the world, approximately twice as hot as a Ghost Pepper, according to the Scoville scale.

"The first few chews were very hot but just about manageable. Then the volcano erupted," the kid wrote on YouTube.

A person in the background said, "Well, you're not supposed to swallow it!"

The video ends with the boy desperately drinking a glass of milk in an attempt to quell the burn.
