Manuel Quiroz, a 54-year-old taxi driver from Mexico City, sure can eat chili. Heck, he can even rub the spiciest of chilis on his skin and even squeeze their juice into his eyes without so much as blinking!
"Chilies don't sting me. They don't affect me. It's just like eating fruit," Quiroz said at a market in the Mexican capital. Shoppers stared in amazement as he crunched on a habanero, the hottest chili pepper in a country that likes its food spicy.

I remember seeing some arrogant guy on Oprah years ago bragging that he could eat the hottest of peppers without feeling the effects. Later in the show, while sitting on the couch, he accidentally rubbed his eyes. He was reduced to tears, and they had to call in medical assistance.

I'd say something's wrong with his nociceptors. I wonder if he regularly burns his tongue because he doesn't feel the heat.
