A man attempting to drink a gallon of Tabasco Habanero Sauce declares after one gulp, "This is gonna be harder than I thought."

You weren't kidding, bro.

The L.A. Beast took on the challenge of finishing the jug in 10 minutes. A video of his trial by fire has collected more than 500,000 views since it was first posted Feb. 21.

Watch above as the L.A. Beast gets down to some insane drinking. As the inferno in his gastrointestinal tract rages, he manages to keep the commentary and self-affirmation coming.

Squeamish viewers might want to keep a sick bag handy at the 8:32 mark.

To the overly curious: This is really stupid and dangerous. Don't try this.

The L.A. Beast recently gained notoriety on the Web for consuming cactus and beaucoup burgers, but the Tabasco stunt might be his most daunting.
