LONDON - LAIR OF THE DARE

By viceland

I once dared a buddy to eat £5 in coins. And he did. It cost him a fiver and will probably give him colon cancer, but it won him my respect. Last weekend I dared someone to sit in a fridge for an hour, which, it turns out, is so dangerous there’s even a Refrigarator Saftey Act to address that specific problem. However,
“I dare you” is one of the most magical phrases in the English language and if you care about things like pride and honour you pretty much have to do it. The daring community was hit badly this week after a forklift truck driver died after a dare to eat a whole jar of chilli sauce went horribly wrong...

Andrew Lee sat down with his girlfriend’s brother Michael to see who
could eat more of the killer condiment (which had been made from chillis
grown and prepared by Lee’s father). It was reported that the sauce was so hot it
scalded skin to the touch. That observation should have warned them off this
Chilli-Off. Nevertheless, Andrew Lee went on to eat most of the jar, win the bet, and then die in his sleep
that night. The post-mortem suggested that it was the chilis what done
it. A cruel fate for a man who was only trying to look hard in front of
his girlfriend.
