How spicy is it, I fall down after a bite of curry...You're so proud of the Korean map

This is because a scene on social media showed that a man who ate the world's hottest curry almost lost consciousness in just one bite.
The video has been viewed more than 6 million times on social media 'X (formerly Twitter)' and is rapidly spreading.
According to the British media Daily Mail, the video was shot at a restaurant 'Bengal Village' in East London.
The young man in the video was 'Daniel', who suddenly ran out of the restaurant shortly after eating 'World's hottest curry' and slumped on the sidewalk with his shirt off.
Restaurant officials began to soothe him by handing him mangora seeds (Indian yogurt with mangoes). Restaurant owner Raj said in the video that "10 minutes will be fine. Drinking mangora seeds will remove the spicy energy of your throat and liver. I'm not a doctor, but take my word for it."
The curry Daniel ate is sold for 22 pounds (about 40,000 won) and contains a mixture of 72 types of peppers.
Among them are Bangladeshi peppers, which are not known worldwide, and it is difficult to measure even with the Scoville index (a measure of the spicyness of peppers).
If you eat all of this curry within 15 minutes, the meal of the accompanying person is also free. However, on the restaurant's website, there is a warning saying, "'We are not responsible for any damage or aftereffects.'"
This notoriously spicy food is due to the 'capsaicin' component contained in peppers, which stimulates pain receptors in the mouth, esophagus, and stomach mucosa, causing extreme burning and pain.
Dr. Kapin, an emergency medical specialist in Florida, said "Extremely hot peppers can rarely be fatal. However, a person weighing 68 kilograms must eat about 1.4 kilograms of ghost pepper (boot jolokiai, the world's hottest pepper) to become a fatal level, but in reality, it is almost impossible.
Meanwhile, the incident is the second similar case to have occurred at the same restaurant in recent weeks.
Earlier, other challengers were also seen breathing heavily and complaining of pain in the video, and water, Laci drinks and ice cream were urgently provided to them.
Co-CEO Muhammad Ahmed told the media that "RACI drinks are served before and after the challenge. The most effective ones for overcoming the spiciness are cold lacquer, yogurt, and ice cream. Water, soda and beer are not very helpful."
He continued "We're also planning the next video of one of our employees challenging themselves, and we'll serve it with cold milk then."
