Two participants of the "world's hottest chilli" contest ended up in hospital after eating killer curry.
Held at the Kismot restaurant in St Leonards Street, Edinburgh, the contest saw participants attempt to down some of the world's most extreme curries in order to help raise money for charity. 21-year-old student Curie Kim who decided to give it a go later described the experience as "like being chainsawed in the stomach with hot sauce on the chainsaw."
Two people have been taken to hospital following the "world's hottest chilli" competition at an Edinburgh Indian restaurant. Emergency services were called to the Kismot restaurant in St Leonards Street on Saturday afternoon after some competitors became "very unwell".
