Since 2005, Comedian Megwin has become an internet celebrity...
...creating unique sketches...
...and punishing his body in the name of comedy.
We offered him a new challenge,
to see what he was really made of
I'm Megwin and I'm here on-demand!
I've uploaded comedy videos... no, comedy and challenge videos every day for 8 years!
This time, Vice has come at me with a challenge!
There's no way Megwin of Mr. Megwin TV can back down this challenge!
So listen up Vice! I'm going to accept your challenge and show you who's boss!
[Do a cute review of the world's spiciest and stinkiest foods!]
Now what have we here?
Looks like we've got the cute, the smelly, and the spicy.
I'll eat them all! I'm not scared!
Axolotl!
In Mexico they are familiar dish said to bring perpetual youth and longevity.
They're full of collagen.
Wow, I didn't know they were edible.
This is surstromming. Surstromming!
Apparently the gas that's released when the can is opened makes some people faint.
Pass out? Aw man...
They also say the stench is impossible to completely remove if this gets on your clothes.
That's why I'm wearing this huh?
Don't act so happy about it!
You're hoping it happens, right?
It's fine right now.
They said on TV that the fermentation makes the can bulge. It's looking pretty bulge-y now.
Last, we have the Trinidad Scorpion Moroga Blend.
Have you heard of these? They're over six times hotter than habaneros!
They stink, too! Everything about them says "stay away"!
It's not the salamanders, and the can's still closed, so it's these chilies that stink!
I know you can't tell, but just the smell of these is making the air in the room spicy.
I've seen these on YouTube before, and the guy who ate them ends up going to the bathroom,
and his toilet was covered in blood!
I'm getting the shakes already.
Okay, let's come up with a dish that combines all three ingredients.
These salamanders seem real delicate.
Uh oh! His left arm fell off!
Aw, so cute!
Alright, let's go outside!
Take a look at my face!
Can you see the fear and excitement as I prepare to confront these unfamiliar foods?
Now let's open up that surstromming!
I already know I won't be able to take it.
I've seen it plenty of times on TV. The juice sprays out when you open it.
If that stuff gets on you, you're in trouble.
I'm really looking forward to this. I always wanted to smell the stench for myself.
And now that day has arrived!
I need these. Can't get any in my eyes now, can I?
Let's open this sucker up!
I've already got it on me!!
My right arm!
Alright, let's go this way.
That's why they say to do it outdoors.
We're on a roll!
Aw damn it smells!
But you know what? It actually kind of smells like my feet.
It stinks! Like really bad!
Okay, here we go!
This is surstromming!
This is what I've been looking forward to... Man the stench is really drawing in all the flies!
I'll start by giving it a sniff.
I think it might actually be ***!
It's been fermenting for so long that... Hey, the flies are really loving it!
It probably is ***!
That's why there are flies. So many of them!
This stuff is incredible.
Let's get started with some salamander topped with surstromming.
Alright, there's the first course: Surstromming topping.
Next up, surstromming sauce. Here we go!
This looks good.
Looks tasty.
Damn it stinks!
I hope this doesn't explode everywhere.
Here we go!
This is crazy!
Man, the stench is so full-on!
I can't even go near it.
Our surstromming sauce has a nice, runny consistency.
Now we dress the salamander like so...
It kinda looks like sesame dressing.
We're still a bit low on spice, though.
Let's get the hot stuff ready.
I'm making a sauce.
This is going to be some dangerous sauce!
Here we go!
Aw man!
And there we have it!
Okay Vice, we're ready to go!
Time to take on your challenge!
I'll start with the plain salamander.
I'm going to eat the boiled one.
I won't lie, it looks pretty nasty.
But it could end up tasting good.
You never know.
Time to face the unknown. Down the hatch!
I get why they say it's full of collagen now.
It's pretty much all collagen!
It's mostly collagen. The instant I put it in my mouth... Hold on a sec.
There was chili stuck to my gloves. My lips hurt really bad!
Ow! My lips are killing me!
The salamander is basically fish.
Fish with a ton of collagen.
That's how I see it.
Next is salamander with surstromming sauce.
I'm excited to see how the smelly sauce tastes with the salamander.
We've come this far, so I'd better make sure there's plenty of sauce.
Here we go!
It's sour....
Sour... Not sour, but...
Ohhh no... How do I put it?
The stench from earlier is now coming back up through my nose from the other side.
I'm getting hit with the most intense smell. I can't even tell if the taste is good or bad.
It's too weird. I can't tell if it's tasty or not!
That's my answer.
I could easily puke it up, but I can still manage to keep it down.
People probably ate stuff like this regularly back in ancient times.
I don't need these goggles anymore.
We're not through yet, Vice!
Now for the real thing. It actually looks tasty at first glance.
Let's put it over like this.
You know what? The chili might help enhance the flavors.
This is a date with the unknown after all, right?
I'm going to add a bit of this Trinidad Scorpion Moroga Blend.
Man these flies are running wild on me. Not yet guys. I'll give you some later.
So I'll dip it in the sauce like this, and give it a try.
A date with the unknown.
Mexican salamander with surstromming and scorpion peppers! Here goes!
This is...
It hurts!
You win Vice!
I accept defeat, so let's end things here!
It's just too...
The spiciness overwhelmed even that pungent smell!
The more I chewed, the hotter it got!
It's so hot right now that if I didn't have the ice to numb my mouth, I couldn't talk.
I've never been pushed this far before.
You got me this time, Vice. But I'll be waiting for your next challenge!
The faces...
..this black eyed one is cute...
...but the left one is...
...urgh
- The blood!
"Official Agreement..."
"With regard to today's events..."
"...I officially declare that I will be held responsible for any injury sustained."
Vice, you thought of everything!
- It basically smells of ***. - Yep.
