Watch This Japanese YouTube Superstar Feast on Salamanders and Hot Peppers

VICE Japan caught up with online sensation Megwin and treated him to feast of culinary delights.

The man known as Megwin began uploading comedy videos onto his YouTube channel in the mid 2000s, and since then, he's become a digital sensation and an odd sort of international celebrity. Recently, VICE Japan caught up with Megwin and treated him to a feast of salamanders, fermented herring, and a pile of chili peppers from Mexico. We're proud to say he completed his challenge with a face full of snot, sweat, and tears.
