Bullshit. The heat of compounds is measured on the Scoville Scale in Scoville heat units (SHU). Habanero peppers measure between 100,000 and 400,000 SHU. Law Enforcement grade pepper spray is rated at between 1,500,000 and 2,000,000 SCU, 5 times hotter than the hotest habaneros.

Bullshit! The heat rating has nothing to do with how much you get in your eyes, nose, mouth. The peppers I have gotten in my eyes were thousands of times hotter than the pepper spray I’ve gotten in my eyes. My experience beats your statistical bullshit.
