Right? I’ve had two levels of respect while watching Johnny: 1st level is a respect as an observer 2nd is when you try to eat one. That’s when the awe factor goes through the roof 😊❤

It takes time. Up until a few years ago, the hottest peppers I would eat were habaneros and red savina habaneros. Then I gradually moved up to hotter pods. The hottest I’ve had to date are bhut jolokia (ghost pepper), moruga scorpion and I finally had reapers. I’m slowly getting there. It takes time to build tolerance to capsaicin. You’ll get there, don’t give up. But take your time.

@@chris_carothers As an ex heroin addict (20 years clean) I started on moruga scorpion... it was ok. Tried reapers straight after. I like the high they give... it's not hard if your brain receptors are attuned to it and chase the high.

Johnny!!! I did it!!! I finally ate a portion of a reaper!! Until now scorpion was the hottest pod i attempted. I carved a decent slice off a fresh ripe reaper my buddy grew.. amazing. Punishing. Citrus explosion. Hot as the sun.. cheers family!!!

Publicly I try to avoid it, but if you look at my logo on the channel, that's not reaper. I was a 7 pot grown by Troy, my friend. Its the same pepper but reversed imaged on his Primo Army shirts. Kinda how I stand

Ed isn't scared of me. I'm confident he is aware of my reach, and the respect the chili community has for me. There are no videos of any respected chili head eating that pepper. Imagine had he sent me one, and it destroyed me. How differently that pepper would be viewed. He told me several times in person, that I would review it. Of course, he also told the chili community they'd be growing it too. He has a credibility problem, yet doesn't seem to care about it.

Instead of sending trolls to attack me, he should hire a PR firm. It's a shame. There was a time when I held him in such high regard. It's a bummer to see what's happened. I hope he's able to restore what's he lost. He's certainly made a lot of money but at a tremendous cost.

@@witness4witnessesdepends on the pepper really. peppers heat can vary. i've had habaneros that were mild and jalapeños that seemed way above their pay grade. i've tried the tube of terror peanuts and quite a few superhots. so, in my limited experience two peanuts do compare, but on the milder side of super hot peppers. if you want to try a super hot, just take it easy and try little bites at a time. you don't have to pop the whole pepper(at first 😜) enjoy the journey!
