Synopsis

During the first season of *Hot Ones*, host Sean Evans established a reputation for unflappable tolerance of fiery wings. Yet, the realm of spicy cuisine extends far beyond the heat of Mad Dog 357 sauce. Preparing for the second season and maintaining his composure on the *Hot Ones* set, Sean sought out a true icon of chili culture—Denmark’s Chili Klaus, renowned for his ghost pepper consumption—to challenge the world's hottest pepper, the Carolina Reaper. Special gratitude to "Smokin' Ed" Curri
