So apparently Bengal Village in East London has the "hottest curry in London." It features 72 types of chilis, including the Carolina Reaper, scotch bonnet, bird's eye, naga and snake chilis, so it's pretty spicy stuff.

They do a challenge with this dish -- a challenge which you have to sign a waiver to attempt. And if you can't tell by this next video, it's pretty intense.

Watch:

I feel bad for the guy, but this is amazing!!

The owner even brought him a glass of mango lassi!

Apparently in the past a diner has been hospitalized after taking the challenge, and Bengal Village has seen several similar instances to the one above.

Man, now I want to go to East London -- not to try the challenge, of course, but to witness people try it!
