The bhut jolokia was tested by guinness.

Joy and Michael had the Dorset Naga tested on tape by the BBC and scored appr. 1.6 million, but guinness was not there.

I am not sure about testing but I think they are hotter.  This was really a 
quick look at heating up a meal but a recipe-maker vs a pepper producer.  At 
least they didn't say slice jalapeno and carefully remove the seeds to make 
a fiery salsa!

Guinness World Records lists the "Red Savina" habanero as the hottest
pepper in the world. It measured a whopping 577,000 Scoville Units, a
heat-measuring scale.

Is this still true?  Have the Naga's been tested by Guinness?
