I honestly cannot see how Djokovic is still level here when comparing the unforced errors. Shows how the stats don't always tell the whole story.
 
3rd set Djokovic. Murray just had to take that chance to break Djokovic in the 2nd set and is now in trouble.
 
As a very late Christmas present, got a jar of ghost peppers (approximate Scoville units: somewhere over 1 million) from a family friend who grows them. The temptation to eat one whole is growing...what's the worst that could happen?

I tried a ghost chilli on a chilli tour back in the summer.... boy it's hot, very hot. Just to give those that want to imagine how hot that is, a scotch bonnet chilli pepper, which up until a few years ago was the hotest, is at approx 250,000 on the same scale.

Just have a glass of milk handy.

Depends if your body is up to eating very very hot food. Could be anything from the sweats, going to the toilet all day or heart attack. I tried pure capsaicin on chicken when in America, my mouth and lips swelled up and it burned for a day.

Used to put a specialty hot sauce (which was essentially ground scotch bonnet peppers in just enough vinegar to make it a semi-liquid) on everything, but my eating habits have trended toward sanity over the last couple years, so I'm a little out of practice. I'll stare at them for a couple days; realized that I probably shouldn't eat one at the moment, as I bit into the inside of my mouth yesterday, which might elevate the experience to a level of masochism that I'm not quite ready for.

Pure capsaicin is 15 - 16 million units. Here's the range:
