tl;dw: the Scoville values the show puts on screen are largely bull.

1: 1800 (show) -> 1460 (lab tested)
2: 6900 (show) -> 1350 (lab tested)
3: 17,000 (show) -> 480 (lab tested)
4: 36,000 (show) -> 1080 (lab tested)
5: 52,000 (show) -> 1850 (lab tested)
6: 71,000 (show) -> 2070 (lab tested)
7: 133,000 (show) -> 16,900 (lab tested)
8: 135,600 (show) -> 179,000 (lab tested)
9: 820,000 (show) -> 35,900 (lab tested)
10: 2,693,000 (show) -> 64,000 (lab tested)

Da Bomb (#8) is the only one that came in above the show's ratings, which is why it's the only one that people on the show regularly violently react to. The rest are under, sometimes WAY under, what the show says.

Scoville units are nonsense anyway. It's a wildly unscientific, unreliable unit of measurement.

Also I have a homie that likes doing this for his birthday so I've done the whole lineup 4 times and the first time I tried it, I quit at Da Bomb. The reason people react like that to Da Bomb is that yeah it's hot but it also taste like complete ****. It tastes like you're just eating chemicals. You can't taste anything else and can't even tell you're eating chicken anymore and it messes up your mouth for a while. That's why the ones after don't seem that bad. I actually have one of the last dab bottles in my fridge right now and it's hot as hell but it also tastes like hot sauce so it's bearable.
