Fear the Reaper: Breeding the World’s Hottest Pepper! (FUNNY VIDEO)

It's HOT, but not in a sexy way!...

Newsroom December 21 04:15

In the competitive world of hot pepper breeding, one man is smoking the competition.

Meet “Smokin'” Ed Currie. He’s the man behind the world’s hottest pepper -the “Carolina Reaper”. For the past three decades, Currie has been pushing the limits of the Scoville scale -breeding hotter and hotter peppers.

A behind-the-scenes report at his South Carolina farm, where he’s bred a number of secret, unreleased specimens that he claims are even hotter than his famous Reaper.
