Looks like a cayenne.
How does it taste and how hot does it feel?

Its a medium hot plant, id give it a 5.5/10. Uploading pic
First pic, is a small plant that i deliberately left in the dark so it gets long and spiney (used for deco purposes). Second pic is the aftermath of a 3 meter fall (interesting story)
It isn't astronomically hot, id say mid range. It tastes very peppery (as in tastes like bell peppers)

Looks like your in Bosnia is that correct? If so, just ask a local or where you bought them. Looks like a cayenne but probably something else. How does a pepper plant take a fall like that?
Trust me locals here grow every pepper under the name feferon, which is a term for chilli in my language. They could be selling morugas and wouldn't know it. As for the fall. There are 2 balconies where I live. The plant was on the edge of the top one. Had severe wind that day. Good thing it did not hit a car or something
Those look like a Thai variety I grew this year - prik chi faa. I have pics in my glog. Post #76. http://thehotpepper.com/topic/44657-dash-2-2014-youre-doing-it-wrong/page-4
Yep, I have had the variety as "Thai Large Red", I figure Prik Chi Faa would be a better name as Thai Large Red doesn't sound that Thai to me..
As you're from Bosna i Hercegovina, try getting your hands on some heirloom balkan or hungarian varieties like the Vezena Piperka (Makedonija), Budai Csipös (Mađarska), etc. They have a far superior taste compared to asian style cayennes im my humble opinion.
(I know getting "true" seeds in the balkan and Eastern Europe in general can be quite an expensive hobby and pain in the ass, so if you can't get your hands on good varieties drop me an PM and I will send some over to get you started)
