Fox pepper spray
Personal experience (PD training):
Fox pepper spray is some seriously horrific stuff. I've been told that I have a stronger then normal reaction to it, but if 'normal' is half as bad as it was for me, it means that stuff is 100% pure, undiluted, liquid pain.
The academy staff sent me to the hospital the next day because of my eyes- they were STILL tearing and gumming shut from the spray. Chemical conjunctivitis. Nasty.
Be aware, even with my strong reaction to it, I still had several seconds of near-100% functioning before I just wanted to curl up and die. Also, one guy in our class was pretty much unfazed by it. He said it hurt, but other than blinking and crying and having a blaze-orange melon, you'd never know he was nailed by it.
