We Are the Champions

In his inaugural Pepper Eating Challenge, Smokin’ Ed Currie, inventor of the worlds hottest chili pepper, promises to burn the tongue off of even the most determined pepper eating masochists. Joins the brave contestants as they sweat through the heat and drop one-by-one, succumbing to the heat of Ed’s infamous and World Record-holding Carolina Reaper pepper. BYO milk.

Yo-Yos may be old, but their champions are barely out of their teens. Visit the World Yo-Yo contest in Cleveland, Ohio—the most prestigious Yo-Yo competition on the planet—where elaborate routines and original moves set to hot music take “walking the dog” to a whole new park.

Travel to Angels Camp, California, home of the world championship of Frog Jumping. The annual champion gets a star on the “Hop of Fame,” a beautiful trophy and 500 American dollars! But the real goal is to break Rosie the Ribeter’s record of 21 feet and 5.75 inches—that will get you $5,000 and the title of Frog Jumping World Champion!
