This couple isn’t afraid of getting hot and heavy.
Mike and Jamie Jack, from Ontario, Canada, spiced up their relationship by breaking the Guinness World Record for the longest habanero pepper kiss.
On 25 February, the husband-and-wife team each ate a habanero pepper before locking lips — reveling in the heat of the moment for 15 minutes, 6.5 seconds.
“The best part was that we got to kiss each other for 15 minutes,” Mike Jack told Guinness World Records.
Mike Jack already had several pepper-eating records under his belt, including for devouring Carolina Reapers and Bhut Jolokia.

Jamie Jack, meanwhile, had to build up a tolerance by eating a habanero every day for about a month before they attempted the hottest kiss of their life.
“We had 30 seconds to each eat a habanero and then we put our lips together for as long as we wanted,” Mike Jack told Guinness.
Habaneros boast a scorching 100,000 to 350,000 Scoville heat units, compared to jalapeños’ paltry 2,500 to 8,000 Scoville heat units, according to PepperScale.com.
The couple, however, is already looking to take their relationship to the next level, and have applied to attempt the record for the longest Bhut Jolokia chili pepper kiss, which can pack over 1,000,000 Scoville heat units.
