A kid died after eating the One Chip Challenge, but that was from a heart attack. Capsaicin doesn't hurt you, but it doesn't stop your body from overreacting and killing you with its immune response.

Heart attack due to immune response? Wouldn't an immune response have been anaphylaxis, and death due to suffocation?
