I will be filming Attempt #2 this afternoon, this time with a Yellow Brain Strain. It won’t be as hot as the Savannah 7 was. That first one was BRUTAL.

Oh, I will definitely be hurting myself. There is no way around it. Thankfully, the pain from this is only temporary, and the capsaicin doesn’t do any real damage. If it did, I wouldn’t be attempting this.

Anyhow, time to get prepped for the next video.

Hahaha well I’m not getting anywhere close to this challenge. I handle spicy foods about as well as a self-absorbed contractor handles criticism.

Nice tricks though 😛

I survived Attempt #2 but still failed to complete the challenge. I lasted the full 5 minutes at least. But I repeated some tricks and got a knot.

Oh well. Life goes on. I’m sure it will take many more attempts before I finally pull this challenge off.
