I can eat very spicy by American standards. But, until you've been to Thailand, and actually eaten their spicy, you don't know nuthin :P
Let me put it this way: My best friend spent about 5 years in Thailand in her adolescence. Her brother has been trying to build himself up to be able to ask for "spicy" and still can only do high medium hot. When I went, I asked for it "just a little spicy" and it was hot as hell. I could handle it, it was yummy...but it was hot as hell.
