  • OMG! Thank you! I would normally laugh at something like this thinking, "What are the odds?" but, I scratched the inside of my nose with my hand instead of using my shoulder, like usual. This video actually kept me from having to go to the emergency room. The pain does not subside from hot pepper oils. My face went red and swelled from it. It just kept burning more and more until the oil was removed from soaking in milk. Again, thank you so much!

  • Love this guy's 'tache

  • @pentigram my friends dared me to rub oil on my nuts while we were wasted i cried wish i had seen this before!

  • -=YAWN!=-  I'll just skip this one cause I don't even want to think about a pepper burn on a penis. That is just way too painful to think about.

  • @pagodatroop1 Not all firefighters have mustaches, but from what I've read it is a tradition for firefighters.

  • When he started talking about "melk"(milk). I started cracking up, because he is so serious, and saying it funky. lol ;)

  • Bruni on burning: Don't be afraid to use melk!

  • @vickiormindyb

    Thank you=)

  • @ROYALTYMB My friend w/ the Ph.D in organic chemistry said never use water, b/c it actually draws out the oils and makes it burn more.

    He knows all kinds of unusual facts about things.

  • Thank you! This happened to me while making jalepino poppers. I just kept washing my hands and putting lotion on them,which didn't work very well.
