Default Question about Ghost chili's

I was watching Man vs Food and he did this challenge where he had to eat a 4 Horsemen Burger. It had jalepenos, serrano, habenero, and ghost chili's on it. Ive heard of the other 3 peppers but never a ghost chili. Where can you buy them, considering I have never seen them anywhere around here at any store. I want to get one just to try it even though they were saying on the show that its pretty intense and the fumes from cooking with them is like getting sprayed with pepper spray.

Heres all I could find on it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_chili

And a quick video on the show

I too have been on the hunt for bhut jolokia but cant find a single place that sells fresh ones. There's plenty of sites that will supposedly sell you seeds or dried chilis but I have heard, mind you its only hear-say, that the fresh are actually hotter which would kind of go against logic. Looks like the only decent option is to grow your own.
