Yikes!

Indian woman blazes through chili-eating feat -
News, People - The Independent
: "The 'ghost chili,' the world's spiciest chili, seems to suit her palate.

A 28-year-old Indian woman smeared its seeds on her eyes before gobbling up 51 fire-hot chilies in two minutes for an entry into the Guinness World Records, organisers said today."

Well, some birds are immune to capzacin's effects, which allow them to eat the peppers...perhaps this woman is similarly endowed (rather as Lance Armstrong is reportedly incapable of producing the enzyme or somesuch that makes one's muscles cramp, or something much like that).

There isn't enough Xantac in the world to soothe my tripes after a stunt like that.
