Wow. Those little buggers sound dangerous.

As to local anaesthetic effects of capsaicins, the hottest peppers I have ever run into were tiny, dark green, and commonly used in Thailand. I had some Tom Yam soup there with whole peppers hidden in the bottom of it (maybe as a joke on the gringo, I am not really sure). The first sensation upon chewing a couple of these before realizing what I had done was overwhelming fire, but it was followed not long after by my entire mouth and throat going numb. My entire body broke out in a sweat. I have never run into anything remotely like these things since. In Thailand, they are normally cut into tiny rings only a few millimeters in diameter and served in a
small amount of soy sauce on the side. If you want really strong pleasant heat, you use just the liquid soy sauce. If you want incendiary explosions, you include a few rings...

To this day, I am not sure whether including whole peppers in food is normal there, or whether the servers/owners at the tiny restaurant were having fun with the foreigner.

@Olderfart ...Probably Thai Birds Eye chilli.....and yes....it is Cutomary to add them in whole so they are not so Hot.......but you remove them before you serve the dish.......

yeah, the bird's eye chilis look about right, but I remember the ones that I kept running in to as a lot smaller and skinnier. As in really dark glossy green, maybe 3-4 mm or less in diameter, and 25 or so mm long. I have never seen them anywhere else.

The ones I ran into were a lot hotter than habaneros, contrary to the wikipedia rating on the bird's eye. Maybe different strains eh? Kinda like our favorite weed.
