Most Dangerous Trees You Should NEVER Touch

cheers that you never seem to clickbait for all these years to stay afloat on youtube

We have Honey Locust trees all over the US Midwest, including my yard. Our son stepped on a thorn when he was 3 and it took several weeks to get it all out. Very painful!

Thanks for the info! We have a Black Locust spling growing in our back yard. I did not know what it was till I saw your video. I transplanted it before knowing about tour video. As I picked it up to put it in the hole I dug, I got stuck lightly and briefly by one of it's thorns. I immediately put some disinfectant on my little finger and cotinued working. I had a small red / numbish / red spot for 3 days. Thankfully the thorn did not go deep at all. After researching the poison effects from this tree It could have been much worse. Another person who's report I red was stuck much deeper with a Black Locust thorn and their entire index finger swole up so they could'nt bend the finger. Thankfully an MD told them it's not fatal and can be treated with Antihistamine and pain killers. The SEEDS, in particular, Bark, twigs and leaves are fatal however if ingested in the right quantity. I would recommend in the case of getting stung by these thorns to immediately take Antihistamine and wrap the stung area with a slightly moist Activated Charcoal compress which will draw out the toxins.

Maybe we shouldn't go into forests without a hazmat suit and a paramedic standing by.

so the best things to wear if you go to australia are a gas mask(for all the gasses) a knight armor(for all the thorns,and also the poisonus plants) and a jet pack(because running away from an animal is already difficult and the armor makes it even harder).

I have seen several of these trees in my work, and living in several African and Carribean countries. There is another tree not mentioned in this video that is also found in the Carribean. It goes by the name Christmas Bush, because the leaves look similar to Holly leaves. It causes painful burns and blisters on your skin several hours after touching the leaves or the sap. I found out the hard way when clearing some ground to build a zipline in St. Martin, I had some of the sap on my hands when I had to go pee, lets just say I had burns where it is the most sensitive, as well as my hands, arms, and face.

I think my grandfather may have a tree similar to a Sandbox tree in his backyard garden. There’s always been this tree in his backyard garden that looks very similar to a Sandbox tree. It’s probably only about 20 or so feet tall, but it has small spikes all over the trunk. I’ve never touched it, but I have always wondered what kind of tree it was. I’ll make a point to ask him about it next time I’m over there.

In Germany we have a tree that is locally called Vogelbeerenbaum / Eberesche (Sorbus aucuparia). It has red berries on it that almost fool you into believing they are red currants, but they are slightly bigger and a bit more orange. I was told they are very toxic, and they are very bad for your digestion system.

I have a Bunya Pine in my back yard. My Dad found it as a seedling in a pot in a garbage fill. He brought it home to my Mom who loved plants. She had never seen a plant like that before nor did she know its name. What she did know is that she didn't like the spiky leaves. She threw the pot with seedling out the back door and there it took root. That was about 50 years ago and the tree is still growing, or so I was told a few years ago by a Horticulturalist. He said that you know when the tree is fully mature when the top flattens out. If that's true, my tree isn't fully mature, yet. The largest pine cone I've seen from this tree was about 6 inches in diameter and weighed about 1 to 1-1/2 pounds. It's rare to see a large one survive the fall. Smaller ones stay intact. When they hit the ground you can hear a very audible THUD. The leaves grow on small branches. When the leaves are green they are sharp but pliable. When the turn brown, they are stiff and deadly to walk on without proper shoes. The main thing people dislike about the tree is the mess they make with the leafy branches year 'round, but worse during the fall and winter. Because the brown leaves are so sharp, clean up requires heavy leather gloves. I had a crew come to take down some dying trees. The Foreman said that they had to take down a Bunya Pine and will never take on that task again for any amount of money. I never knew the proper name for the tree until I saw this video. I've always known it as a Monkey Puzzle Tree, named so because it is said that it's the only tree a monkey can't climb.

The thumbnail almost killed me cuz the holes is too much for me

Thanks for these educative videos as always. Really chilling to watch.🤔

Now i don't think i want to sit under a tree.

The bird killing tree DOES enjoy an evolutionary advantage by it's seeds sticking to birds. I don't know how scientists can't see that the seeds being stuck to the birds causes the birds to perish due to the seeds weighing them down. Then the seeds are spread as far as that bird can get and if the bird dies the seeds have a source of nutrients needed for seeding. If the bird is eaten and the seeds survive the gastric tract of the predator then they also get nutrients for seeding when passed.

I had a bunya pine in my front yard in Portugal for 23 years, it grew to about 20m tall and started giving pines (the size of melons) in the last 4-5 years. Had to have it cut down because it bent so much due to its fibrous trunk and the strong winds in my region, given that it was just about 5 meters from the house...

That spike tree looks Dangerous!☠️

I guess I have to rebook my vacation

that one that makes holes in your hand was the most terrifying trypophobic thing ive seen:face-orange-biting-nails::hand-orange-covering-eyes:

I would add hazmat suit to my packing list 🤣Thank you for sharing I love this channel 🥰

I felt an odd overpowering urge to admit myself to the hospital just by watching this vid lol. Thank you! Tons of useful and lifesaving information!
