Not unless you have a severe allergy, like any food allergy. However, if you are not used to eating very very hot chiles, you may wish you were dead once the full effect of the capsaicin hits your tongue and is recognized by your brain.

The current world's hottest Chile is the Bhut Jolokia (also known as the Ghost Chile), see the related links and questions for more information about this hot pepper that scores over a million Scoville units.

People give suggestions for how to cool your taste buds when you bite off more chile than you can chew. As a dedicated "chilehead" who pushes the envelope when it comes to "fire eating", and who has been a charter member of the New Mexico State University Chile Institute since 1993 (founded by Paul Bosland as a scientific and educational institute for expanding chile knowledge and promoting its research and preservation), the most effective "antidotes" I've found for those who do not have asbestos mouths, is a bite of raw banana. Another effective helpful fire extinguisher is any milk product (both the casein and the fat are the active ingredients that help), especially premium/high fat ice cream. But, the banana is much easier to have with you and all you need is a quick zip off of the peel and a fast bite to start to reduce the singe.

It is extremely unlikely unless you're allergic to it or it triggers some other pre-existing condition in your body. For instance, it might exacerbate an ulcer or other gastrointestinal issues.

The answer is simply No. Your body can consume as much upto 15kg in weight of chilis before it will sweat to cool your system down.

Happy eating

no, but if you don't wash your hands properly after preparing them and touch your eyes it can cause your eyes to be irritated and it could lead to blindness if not dealt with
