There are studies that put that number anywhere between .5-13g our capsaicin for a 150lb person where pure capsaicin is 15 million Scoville. The chip challenge is not pure capsaicin and is 1.7 million Scoville.
So is the lethal limit you are referencing the LD50? If you link the studies I can look into it a bit. If you are making the case that this is all safe and normal then why was the kid going to die from drinking bleach otherwise?
Is the lethal limit the LD50? 1 in a billion is a very favorable statistic to choose.
