Hot Smooch!… Couple Kiss After Eating Spicy Peppers to Break World Record

An Ontario, Canada, couple ate spicy peppers and then locked lips for more than 15 minutes to break the Guinness World Record for the longest habanero pepper kiss.

Mike and Jamie Jack ate a habanero each and then had to start kissing within 30 seconds to comply with Guinness World Records rules.

They held their kiss for 15 minutes, 6.5 seconds, earning the record. The couple set their goal at 15 minutes because they will be celebrating their 15th anniversary this year.

The couple said practice is an extremely important part of setting the record.

“Make sure you can handle the heat of the peppers before attempting a record like this. You don’t want to throw up into someone else’s mouth.”
