Hot Ones brings out different emotions in different guests. Jennifer Lawrence was afraid, Cate Blanchett was impressively chilled, and Sterling K. Brown comes with the kind of hectic energy that reminds us faintly of Jake Gyllenhaal's appearance.

In the clip above, the This Is Us star answers questions about his varied career while eating increasingly spicy wings and remaining impressively upbeat throughout.

Also like Gyllenhaal, he's one of the only guests we've seen to eat Da Bomb in its entirety — and he even manages a Shakespeare soliloquy afterwards. Impressive!
