More Dangerous Than You Think: Plants That Are Poisonous

[@pheresy1367]

YEW TREES: In Long Island during the 60s, new neighborhoods planted them EVERYWHERE! All the hedges we hid in, all the hedges that bordered many front and side doors were lined with yew trees.... I remember all those liquid filled berries smooshed on the sidewalks from waking past them on the pavement. All the kids were REPEATEDLY WARNED about the toxicity of the plant and berries, so we never had a problem... but nobody was ever warned of the toxic air near them.... People were always trimming their hedges during the summer. You rarely encounter yew trees in landscaping anymore. I always favor edible plants and flowers myself.

[@appaloosa42]

Yew was used to develop an anti-cancer drug: taxol. And un Maine near Wilkes-Barre, in 2017 or 2018 , a large bear sow and her 2 cubs died in a church parking lot mere feel from the Yew trees & berries they’d consumed.

[@marciaoh7056]

I believe you are refering to the Yew with its tiny red berries. Often confused with the Juniper who's berries are used in cooking and in distilled beverages. I always tell children NEVER eat ANYTHING you come across growing. It's just common sense.

[@pheresy1367]

@@marciaoh7056 That's exactly what I said. Where did I mention "juniper" berries?

[@sallyspencer5624]

With the Nettles in England they if you touch them even lightly they give you a itchy rash and there is a treatment. A plant that grows near the Nettles commonly called a Dock leaf, which is a fairly large leaf. If you pick this Dock leaf and run the back of the leaf which is the veiny side, over the rash it will take out both the rash and the itching and no more problem from the Nettle sting. The Nettles look like an angry plant and can grow 3-4 feet high.

Yeah the Yew tree fruits are just like huckleberries and that's why the sow bear and her cubs died from eating them? More than likely? That's what caught my eye, was how much they looked like the huckleberry fruit. But I have cut down Yew tree's before and I have not had any trouble with them? I've even taken some of the wood and given it to a friend who does wood working and builds furniture and cabinets and we have never had any issues or anything like that from the type of trees?

[@godfreecharlie]

Growing up in Pendleton Oregon I was always out on my grandparents front porch which was bordered by a hedge of what had to be English Yew. The fruits or berries are identical. The plant itself was also identical in the leaves. I played with the fruits as a toddler and later was always picking them in the winter when lots of "snow birds" as my granny called them flew in and feasted on the mushy berries. I even remember tasting the clear ooze, finding it to be sweet somewhat. Thanks for a memory I thought I had lost.

[@blaggercoyote]

The yew is confined to churchyards in the UK because it is dangerous to farm animals.

I live on the east central coast of Florida, 13 miles south of nasa launch site. In my very back yard I have the very dangerous Manchineel tree. It’s true concerning how toxic this tree is as only certain tree trimming companies will even touch it. And over the years I’ve learned by observation that no animals will venture into its branches no birds, squirrels, or even the possum steer clear of this thing. Oh and no insects ever munch on the leaves. Maybe because the sap being so toxic and extremely sticky. It’s hard to get off your skin even with a good soap!

[@parmanandmahabir.]

The nut is not poisonous ,however if the germ is eaten that part is poisonous.Macaw eat sand box,but eat mud after.

[@nicomeier8098]

6:13 The legitimate question should not be be why that tree is there but why these students picked up and ate unfamiliar fruit. The tree is neither to blame nor stupid, but these students on the other hand clearly were.

[@taox5911]

The hallucinogenic effects of the vapors emanating from yew trees were known since thousands of years to early cultures. Early , more detailed versions, of the "Cinderella" fairy tale prove that the story in fact is a folklore teaching about time-limited psychedelic experiences. Suffering from humiliation and discrimination Cinderella goes into the garden and complains "to the holy Yew tree" which transforms her into a princess allowed to dance with the prince in the castle. But only until midnight. Later, the prince tries to find out which sister has "really danced with him at the castle" and the step sister fails with her lie (wrong shoe) because, like with shoes, nobody can pretend to "have been to the castle of Oneness with the Highest" mentioned by the great mystics, unless he has been there by own experience.

There’s a bunch of trees in this video that are featured for their “deadliness” yet not named. 🤦🏻‍♂️ I live around the one featured in the beginning with the red berries and have been around them my whole life. I have personally broken branches off that tree and messed with those berries (didn’t consume obviously) and I never experienced any toxic effects from breathing in the air.. Ironically, this was also one of the examples that wasn’t even named yet featured. This video is a waste of time.

Most of those trees could be used on USA Southern border with the warning in Spanish & other languages. This would stop illegal migration of terrorists to assemble the sleeping cells & contraband getting trough. Planting these trees also would increase the number of tunnels dugout under the border. With the assistance of the autonomous drones flying along the border with night vision capability could be an affordable method of controlling our southern border. This presentation deserves a more presentable front cover & the title. Myself had experienced lucky adventures & one was a Coconut tree used for its shade on the beach I didn't check for up above coconuts that could fall & it did fell narrowly missing my head, the only one I have. Used to be full of good ideas except for that day. Coconut was bigger than my head & like a heavy duty cannon ball . What grows up must come down 😂.

[@djToniTontonNewZealand]

In New Zealand we have a widow maker , its a lily type attaches to large trees and falls down making your wife a widow, the other is the karaka tree, many tribes forbid it, but the birds didnt get that memo, when one berry can kill you, Maori for years ate them , many Maori died until the figured out how to eat it, soak it, and cook it in the ground a hangi,. it causes convulsions and contortions breaking 20 bones then die but many were saved , we dig a hole in the sand, stand the person up and bury him to the neck , preventing self harm,. the Ongaonga is a sacred tree, in our legends it grew in the darkness as father sky Ranginui and mother earth Papatuanuku were once connected and ongaonga and tataramoa were used as a saw to cut the pou opening the world to have light. You can die from 100 stings. was that a Daytura tree , made many sick here. The parapara gum was used to catch birds to eat. The puriri tree is poisonous used to wash dead bodies mummifies the skin , pre European days no such thing as embalming, The last one is the kowhai tree , highly poisonous, seed case travels the waters and the yellow seed cover highly poisonous, kills dogs and children. Maori were very clever but pakeha proved thru science what is poisonous. You used a film of indians none were maori in your doco bro
