While many TikTok challenges are considered the ‘hottest’ new thing on the app, one new video trend is leaving some users a little hot under the collar. 

People around the world have been taking part in a dangerous TikTok called ‘One Chip Challenge’, which sees the social media user eating one of Paqui’s tortilla chips, which are covered in extremely hot seasoning.

The aim of the spicy challenge is to wait as long as possible before eating or drinking anything. 

Consuming the chip can lead to several side effects, including vomiting, nausea, belly pain, throat pain and mouth pain. 

Among those who have tried it is Victoria and David Beckham’s son Brooklyn, while a host of other British TikTokers have also put themselves to the test. 

Several people from the UK have shared clips of themselves or pranking others to eat one of Paqui’s tortilla chips, which are covered in extremely hot seasoning for a TikTok challenge

Earlier this week, Tommy Wade decided to prank a co-worker with the hot crisp and shared the clip to his TikTok page @tommywade32.

The video racked up over 4.6 million views and nearly 100, 000 likes with many rushing to the comments with their reactions. 

In the clip, Tommy tells his co-worker to eat the crisp saying ‘swallow it’ as his friend starts to notice just how spicy it is. 

The man dangerously decides to get into a fork lift and drive away while his mouth is burning up but soon gets out and starts vomiting. 


While Emma Cullen also filmed her work colleague taking on the flaming hot chip challenge which is made with the Carolina Reaper, the world’s hottest chili pepper, on her page @emmacullen32

The budding chef, 23, was left with tears streaming down his face as he took part in the viral challenge.

Brooklyn didn’t appear to adhere to this part of the challenge however as he had a glass of milk to hand while he was eating the chip and tears quickly started to stream down his face. 

The Paqui website reads: ‘Eat the entire chip. Wait as long as possible before drinking or eating anything.

‘Post your reaction on social media with #onechipchallenge and mention @paquichips.’

There have been reports of people suffering with stomach pains after taking part in the challenge, with an ambulance recently called to a school in Minnesota after a group of students ate the chips.

Paqui warns not everyone should try the challenge, saying: ‘Do not eat if you are sensitive to spicy foods, allergic to peppers, nightshades, or capsaicin, or are pregnant or have any medical conditions.’

The company also warns to keep the chips out of reach of children and to seek medical assistance if you experience nausea, fainting or difficulty breathing after eating.
