Have you ever eaten one of theses? They're the hottest peppers in the world. Just cutting them open will make you start coughing if you get too close. Touch your tongue to one and it'll feel like it's on fire. These babies are scorchers. My son planted about half a dozen plants and we have around 50 peppers now. We have a lot of Mexican neighbors and we passed out a few samples. Next time I saw them I asked if they wanted some more and they all said "no thanks, they're too hot". You know they're hot if you can't even get the Mexicans to eat them. LOL
