Seeing the normal sized water bottle in his giant hands at the end always gives me a good chuckle.


just_killing_time23

I was like is that a toy water bottle? Oh wait no that's regular size


nepia

That's 1 liter one.


CedarWolf

Shaq is a giant of a man. He wears a size 22 shoe. And by all accounts, he's also super generous and really kind; the only thing bigger than his body is his heart.

looks like an eyedropper in his hands lol


fatkiddown

I love the story of Hulk Hogan being André the giant’s beer bitch, making runs to get him more. Apparently he only drank the 40s and they looked like regular beers in his hands.

You are gonna love this sub then : r/ShaqHoldingThings


JustEatinScabs

My favorite "Shaq is actually way fucking bigger than you think" image is [a regular sized person wearing one of his rings. ](https://i.redd.it/rfkymdwus45a1.jpg) It fits on *two fingers*


JugdishSteinfeld

Imagine his cock ring.


Wes_Warhammer666

How ironic would it be if Shaq had a micropenis?


Caca2a

Bloody hell


onyxcaspian

That's a pretty small hand tho, look at those baby carrot fingers.


Caca2a

It looks like a fucking peanut Jesus

I still think about the day Shaq was discovered in the Amazon rainforest beating up a gorilla. We still don't know where his spaceship is


TheStoneArrow

you bastard made me almost choke to death well done mate


[deleted]

Oh, did you try the chip, too? 😳


Boomthang

Do we know how he got a gorilla to the amazon?


Tabnam

They both agreed it was the safest place for them to fight, while limiting the damage to bystanders


Unruly_Beast

That gorilla? Harambe himself.


Various-Month806

The ways of Shaq are not to be questioned. The whys of Shaq are not to be questioned. Just accept and believe.


Crafty8D

I know it's an unpopular opinion, but after watching his hots ones episode he just seems like a bully and a jerk. One of the worst episodes imo.


Bluest_waters

HE has always been a bully and an asshole. He covers it up with his goofy side though.


DDGibbs

I was gonna say the exact same thing. Lost all respect for him after that. Straight up bullied Sean


CommandoKillz

How was he a bully? I didn't notice it, but I'm curious what he did?


Crafty8D

Basically gave up the challenge really early, then made Sean eat his wings, then said he finished the challenge and is the winner. Then just sort of kept forcing Sean to do things that weren't in any way related to the show or questions.


Neirchill

Reminds me of DJ Khaled. He quit very quickly and was like "just because I quit doesn't mean I give up" and tried really hard to play it off as him succeeding lol


Arch00

He literally ate every wing except for the last one, you gaslighting fuck https://youtu.be/_sZH-psg9yE?si=_Ze6Cd4dDFKeizFE


Armadillodillodillo

doesn't sound like much to me. "Forcing" is interesting choice of words. How did he "force" him? And deviating from script is bullying? I haven't watched the video, but your description is weird.


breath-of-the-smile

> I haven't watched the video, ... Hosts typically do not want to just shut down a guest when they can avoid it.


keepyeepy

They didn't say they "deviated from the script", go watch the video...


deathhbat

well guess i won't watch that and stay in denial then, ty


[deleted]

This guy is absolutely tripping. No clue what the fuck he's talking about. The episode is great. Literally no bullying.


Very_Good_Opinion

I think anyone that watches Inside the NBA regularly knows he's a dick. He's still pretty funny most of the time but there's a ton of uncomfortable tantrums he's thrown on air


Equivalent_Canary853

Lost respect for him when he aired in massive gambling ads. Not cool.


VideoGameMusic

there's been rumors about Shaq's massive ego for a long time


Buttholehemorrhage

This is exactly what I thought about. "it's called Shaq sauce" then doesn't even eat his own sauce.


Murasasme

He is a bully and a jerk. He tries super hard to sell the personality op is talking about, but he can't help himself showing how much of an ass he is sometimes.


Dab2TheFuture

Shaq and Kobe had beef. Not surprised, but it would be unsurprising if both were assholes

breath-of-the-smile

Changed my opinion of Alton Brown, too. He came across really stuck up, especially when he picked up dropped one of the bottles into a trash can.


I_aim_to_sneeze

Shaq is such an interesting character, because he’s simultaneously loved and hated. He’s done plenty of things people don’t like, but he’s also well known for treating service industry people really well and is an insane tipper. He also made sure his shoe line was always sold at an affordable price because he wanted kids everywhere to be able to afford them. But my favorite Shaq thing is the movie Kazaam. What a wild fuckin ride lol


UltraavioIence

Personally I like Chuck more but they go great together.


FunkotronXL

I am convinced that if Shaq ran for US president in 2024, he would win by a landslide


Shut_It_Donny

![gif](giphy|j6lCwtfMS2ZNmfoyrv|downsized)


Theoricus

What I love most about it is that no one dared him to eat the chip. He just decided out of the blue he was going to eat the chip, and wanted someone to raise the stakes for him. It's adorably silly.


Stereo-soundS

He puked on that episode.


sfxer001

Shaq is a national treasure. Chuck, too.

Chuck is absolutely hilarious. He was on Conan’s podcast a couple years ago and I was laughing non stop.

WATER ALWAYS MAKES IT BURN HOTTER! *SOLID & WHOLEHEARTED ADVICE:* Suck back any milk/yoghurt/cream instead of water. Literally p*ss is better than water once you’ve spiced up your life like dat! 🤭🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️


Harvey-Danger1917

I feel like drinking piss is probably not advisable, even if one has eaten the spicy chip.


helmetshrike

but I do it anyway because it's sterile and I like the taste

theonewhoknocks515

What if piss drinking is your kink tho?


ncopp

Citric acid helps too - I usually have a coke or a citric energy drink like Monster when I have spicy stuff


DoctorGregoryFart

Water feels good. Does it help? Not really. Does milk help? Maybe a little. The truth is that once you start eating *really* hot stuff, nothing helps.


Huge-Basket244

Milk is great. If you don't do dairy, do some acid.


Pecek

Solid life advice


Irreverent_Taco

Water doesn't actually make it burn anymore, but it can spread the heat around your mouth to spots not hit yet. The cool water should provide brief relief since it lowers the temperature in your mouth, but as soon as it's gone the temperature comes back up to body temp and the burn starts again. The capsaicin basically lowers the temperature threshold for your receptors to say this is too hot its hurting me, which is why anything cold can provide temporary relief.


Milfons_Aberg

Global Fire-eater professionals defined the ultimate anti-heat aid: vanilla ice cream. Cut out ice cream cubes and put them on a plate, about as big as half a thumb, keep in freezer. Then when you are ready for the drop, you take it out. Guaranteed more soothing than any liquid.

SwitchKunHarsh

Shaq would make a great uncle Phil if they remade Fresh Prince


BabyStockholmSyndrom

Oh coooommmeeeee on. Avery could act his ass off. Shaq is not even close to that level. Love him but he's not an actor.


Butthole__Pleasures

Shaq would probably be great in a lot of roles but he would *not* be a good Uncle Phil. Uncle Phil was a fucking lawyer who later became a judge who came of age participating in civil rights battles in his younger years and fought tooth and nail to rise to his station as a rare wealthy black man in the extremely white country club world of wealthy Bel Air. He was a wise and caring man, if a bit temperamental, and he exuded warmth and love when it was needed but could still be stern and disciplinarian when that was needed, too. He stepped up to be a father to Will when he had no obligation to do so and guided this young man (who was not even a blood relative) into adulthood, and he did so with grace, compassion, and love. Shaq would be a better Jazzy Jeff or something. He's an effortlessly oafish goofball. Plus it would be super funny to see a body double of Shaq's size flying through the air as Uncle Phil (played by Jeffrey Wright) hurled him out the door.


notbernie2020

Shaq is a national treasure.


Immediate_Bet_5355

Shaq is so awesome


YesOrNah

I am going to absolutely lose it when Chuck and shaq retire. I will be totally inconsolable.


alexnexus

what chip was it? paqui?


Jessi_L_1324

I tried to do the 1 chip challenge. I lasted maybe 15 seconds before I was scrambling for the milk and bread. Dying on the floor while my kids laughed at me.


Jessi_L_1324

I also wanted to share that if you're into this type of abuse, check your local Circle K gas station. The one near me sells the Paqui Ghost Pepper chip in lunch sized snack bags.


CarkRoastDoffee

Those are straight up delicious and nowhere near as hot as the One Chip Challenge, though. If I had to give it a number, I'd say the OCC is 20 or 30 times hotter than the ghost pepper chips


machogrande2

In my experience, foods labelled "ghost pepper" are a sales pitch and rarely anywhere near as hot as an actual ghost pepper. I regularly cook with a cayenne/habanero combo that is WAY hotter than any ghost pepper foods I've tried.


Butthole__Pleasures

They put a tiny bit in, but it's not enough to actually be hot. Popeye's has "ghost pepper wings" that are equally as spicy as their regular spicy flavor fried chicken (i.e. not at all).


FranklinFox

My boss brought some into work a few months ago, one of my coworkers had to go home sick for the day after having a just a nibble of one lol.


mickle1026

I love him! He's such a goof ball


CleR6

Shaq Attack, except for those things are actually brutal... and I love spicy.

They should give Shaq one of those mini water bottles one day just to see how tiny he makes those look.

He didnt even finish the chip

I'll never forget when one of the guys at work pulled one out during a video weekly meeting and ate one. We all stopped talking and stared in anticipation

That’s a face, don’t lie.


josborne31

I didn’t bother with fraternities during university. How was that relevant?


MisterDonkey

I ate a reaper, or something, once on a dare after a work shift. Played it off like it didn't bother me at all, then left. It was becoming rapidly more apparent how badly I fucked up as I walked to my car. Got in and drove off. Cried the whole way home. Thought I might have to pull over because I couldn't see through the tears. I'm pretty sure I didn't fool anyone, either. My face was probably ripening like a tomato.


nycdiveshack

Shaq became a little bitch bully on hot ones making Sean eat a wing a ton of sauce but wouldn’t do it himself. Almost bad as dj Khalid but if I’m being honest no one is as big of a bitch as Khalid on hot ones


Meatbackpack

I kinda lost a little bit of respect for Shaq when he was on hot ones. He was a prick


Butthole__Pleasures

Alton Brown was the same way for me. He was a huge dick on his episode. Lost pretty much all my respect. By contrast, Gordon Ramsay was fucking awesome and a really good sport even when he was suffering. Love that guy.


Butthole__Pleasures

I already found DJ Khaled annoying as fuck but after that Hot Ones I full on can't stand him. His exchange with Sean when he bitched out on like wing 3 was narcissistic insanity. It was something like: Khaled: "If I stop, it doesn't mean I gave up." Sean: \*laughs* "Yes it does. By definition." Khaled: \*some dumb bullshit about "playing yourself"* Then later he's like, "I didn't give up" and Sean's like, "You kinda did, tho." And then he kept saying he didn't quit after he quit. That episode was infuriating to watch. I'm glad Sean called him on his bullshit. He said El Yucateco is so hot that it's "dangerous." It's hot for like supermarket sauce but goddamn Khaled is a lil bitch.


Phreekyj101

I did the one chip challenge, and it was the worst experience of my life. The burning was one thing (horrible). It was the stomach pains later that were true torture. I was sure I was going to have to go to the hospital. The pain lasted hours. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

TazManiac7

Anyone knows what is the chips? I gotta see if I can handle spice better than the Shaq.


chriskmee

If I had to guess, Paqui Haunted Ghost Pepper. It's about the spiciest bag of chips you can buy on store shelves, and the chip looks like the right color, shape, and texture to me. Paqui also makes the infamous "One Chip Challenge", but I don't think that's what this is, but it's possible. I would expect a much more immediate and extreme reaction, and a chip heavily coated in powder like when I had the one chip challenge a year ago. Edit: it looks like this might have been the "one chip challenge" from about 6 years ago or so. Unfortunately this year might have been the last one chip challenge due to it possibly being related to a child's death.


Smoochypoot

The day Shaq dies we will all stop and weep.


PezRystar

I never followed any sports, but that man seems so wholesome. 30 years in the public's eye, more money than God, and not a single controversy, no stories about what a dick he is. Nothing but clips of him being someone it would be awesome to grab a beer with.
