Pure capsaicin isn't an oil, it's a crystal. Blair's 16 million reserve is pure capsaicin. Anyone selling an oil claiming that is lying. You can just heat it and melt the crystals, but it's solid at normal temps.
There's a video on youtube of a guy melting and eating a few crystals. You don't die. But you cannot touch the things with your bare hands, and you should probably be wearing safety goggles because there's a real risk of blindness.
