Pretty sure they are still top 10 but not top 5 depending on where you get your seeds from. Not all are created equal. Carolina Reaper technically I think is the hottest by the records but there are rumors of others that are hotter that haven't been submitted for the record yet. There are also arguments over if the dude juiced the peppers or was highly selective in the peppers he submitted for testing.

I know for sure my reapers were hotter than my ghost peppers. Both are brutally hot.

I’ve had stuff like this. You have to disown your mouth.

These idiots just don't get that the hotter the sauce the longer the reaction time. It's like your taste buds cant

even register the heat until it gets to your stomach.

My son was on this kick for a while. He'd order some paint stripper level hot sauce and would

go around letting his friends and people sample it with toothpicks.

Science behind it

Basically it triggers a cellular response as if you're burning the tissue, also triggers physiological stress response.

Respect the capsaicin. It's fat soluble, so when that absorbs into your tongue, it's not easy to get out. The peanut butter or milk slowly can leech a small amount out, but once it's in your system you mainly have to let dissipate and take the pain. It will cause a minor chemical burn, and none of the women will be impressed.
