As of 2018, what is the hottest pepper?

I bet it burns coming out just as much as it does going in.

WalksBySelf, scoville scale

Lou Lou, not subjective at all. the measurement is the scoville scale

Such a subjective question and many sources have peppers hotter than this one. Really not sure this is the objectively correct answer.

But how and when is the heat level measured? By crazy pepper connoisseurs at an annual contest?

Wonder, some people are gluttons for punishment. why do ]people eat this stuff just to prove they can

Wonder, I cant even take Tobasco Sauce!! Wimp??
