答應我 不要輕易嘗試"變態辣"!
The next time you think about eating a ghost pepper, stop and consider this.
下一次當你想要嚐嚐魔鬼辣椒醬的時候，停下來想想這個吧。A case report in The Journal of Emergency Medicine describes a patient who spent 23 days in the hospital with tears in his esophagus after he consumed a hamburger topped with ghost pepper puree as part of a contest.
《急診醫學期刊》上報道的一個病例顯示，有位患者和別人比賽，吃了一個塗滿魔鬼辣椒醬的漢堡包，結果造成食道撕裂，住了23天醫院。The 47-year-old man began "violently retching and vomiting" after eating the burger, despite washing it down with six large glasses of water, according to the September report.
據九月份的報道，這位男子今年47歲，用六大杯水把這個超級辣的漢堡衝了下去，結果吃完之後就開始"劇烈地噁心嘔吐"。
The man was rushed to hospital where medical personnel determined that he was suffering from Boerhaave syndrome, or spontaneous esophageal rupture.
隨後該男子被緊急送醫救治，醫護人員確診爲布爾哈夫綜合徵——也就是自發性食管破裂。The patient was taken to the operating room "where he was noted to have a 2.5-cm tear in the distal esophagus," which had food debris in it, according to the journal.
據期刊稱，患者被送進了手術室後，醫生髮現他"食道遠端部有一處2.5釐米長的裂口"，還有一些食物殘渣。The bhut jolokia, better known as ghost pepper, is one of the hottest chili peppers in the world. It rates at about 1,000,000 units on the Scoville heat scale. A jalepeno is about 3,500 Scoville units.
印度鬼椒，又稱"魔鬼辣椒"，是世界上最辣的辣椒之一。按照斯科威爾辣度指數，它的辣度爲100萬級。墨西哥辣椒的辣度爲3500級。Many people have ignored the obvious agony of eating the fiery food to capture their own experiences ingesting it on camera, in what has become known as the "ghost pepper challenge."
很多人無視這些辛辣食物帶來的痛苦，偏要在鏡頭前面吃下這些食物贏得人氣，稱之爲"魔鬼辣椒挑戰"。Doctors discharged the patient after he underwent emergency surgery and remained in hospital for 23 days.
在經歷緊急外科手術並在醫院觀察23天之後，醫生終於批准該男子出院了。
