News producers around the country are getting revenge on their on-air staff by making them do the One Chip Challenge in front of the camera. If you do not know what that is, it is a tortilla covered with Carolina Reaper pepper, the hottest pepper in the World, so hot that only one chip comes in the coffin. They say you can only eat one and most people cannot even do that.
KYW’s Jim Donovan and Rahel Solomon decided to try it out after they saw Shaquille O’Neal do it. Solomon warned her co-anchor that because she is Ethiopian she is used to eating hot peppers. It did not matter to him. Then the day came and her heritage saved her, while his nearly killed him. He went over 6 minutes without drinking any milk and he did things I have not seen an adult male do. He was doing that pee dance, that kids do, to lessen the pain in his mouth and it did not work. He cried, he sweated, he danced and nothing work. Did the milk help? Nope, it just made it come up. Meaning it burned twice as much because it was going in both directions. Ouch!
As he suffered, Solomon stood there like she ate a Dorito chip, which personally I am thinking she did. What do you think?
Also, why do they only show people taking the challenge? I want to see what happens when the chip comes out. You know they say, “Burns going in, burns even more coming out.” I just want to see their faces and hear their screams as that happens. Is that wrong?
