Video: Chinese man's attempt at drinking chilli oil terribly misfires

People are skyrocketing to a celebrity status on the internet in a short span of time for doing things that don’t make sense at all. The likes of Taher Shah and others are being followed by more people aspiring to be viral sensations on the social media.

In this quest for instant fame, people are doing everything from the unintelligible to the bizarre, and they do often get themselves in a lot of trouble when such escapades misfire.

One such man from China thought it’ll be a great idea to drink chilli oil on camera in order to prove his mettle and rise to fame. But it didn’t go as planned and he later ended up in a hospital.

This seems to be another case of daredevilry turning out to be utter stupidity.
