Man nearly dies after eating ghost pepper that puts hole in esophagus

What is the point of eating it? You don't taste anything but heat and pain. I like jalapeños but one you get above that it's just too much. I tried Habanero sauce and it had almost no flavor.

Habanero's have lots of flavour. Just got to manage the heat level and/or get used to it.

As for why have super spicy food? The body releases endorphins and dopamine in response. Makes it all feel good in some ways. Some people also like the challenge.
