hot awake?

A few years ago at an all night nerd convention I watched a guy take a few teaspoonfulls of hot sauce to wake himself up while the rest of us drank coffee (me) and mountain dew (everyone else). So, does this work? is it just a short lived rush? a flight response light ammonia inhalent? what's the deal?

We usually get breakfast burritos here on fridays and load em up with hot sauce(like Jersey Death and such), and i have to admit, it does give me a good jump-start in the mornings.

I do something simaler called Defcon Eggs (I mix in Defcon Condition 1, cook, then dizzle Condition 1 all over it). Better than coffee...but I still end up having coffee... :)
 
There was an article in the local fishwrap a while back about the folks that work on the 12 hour swing shifts at the mills here. When asked what he does to beat the sleep deprivation, he said he'll shake some cayenne powder in a small glass of warm water and slam it whenever he felt the nappy time coming on.
 
I tried that last night by drinking some Down South, by Kato's. I figure 1 flask will be good for about 250 miles, or less, at 60mph. I can't say it worked any better than caffiene. :) Might need to try something hotter next time.:)
 
i have found lately all i have to do to get good and awake in the morning is to ask my wife for sex........after she smackes me in the face im pretty much awake the rest of the day.
