Chinese man eats 2.5kg of chillies a day

Fifty-four-year-old Chinese man Li Yongzhi can take the heat. He starts his morning by eating several dried chillies hanging around his home, and brushing his teeth with the spicy fruit in his mouth, to wake him up. He then consumes a breakfast composed entirely of raw chillies and pure dried chilli powder, without flinching. Li says he eats about 2-2.5kg of them every day, on average. Nov 17, 2015
