Sheltering from the rain under a tree in the middle of the night, a man learned that getting wet was the least of his problems, now faced with going blind. One of the world’s most dangerous organisms, unexpectedly a tree, is extremely toxic. The fruit is poison, the sap is extremely dangerous, and touching it is the last mistake you could ever make. Let’s get into it.

"I am the Lorax. I speak for the trees. Except that one. That one speaks for itself."

You'd think a radiologist would be smart enough not to eat a random fruit they found lying on a beach, but I guess not...

The tree said "respect my boundaries" and meant it

1.) Don't touch it 2.) Don't let the sap get on you 3.) Don't eat the apples from it

No wonder people in the ancient world have all kinds of terrifying lore. The world they lived in had threes like these and they had no way to explain the circumstances, other than will of a deity or some cursed spirit.

The trees aren’t harmed when the Lorax is armed.

I'm surprised it isn't in Australia. No wonder Florida Man has so much power.

I live in Florida. When they take people on airboat tours they warn about that tree and its fruit.

I usually listen to this type of video like they're podcasts, but's really nice to see Brew animated in this one.

Fun fact, they are related to Poinsettias which are also poisonous. In fact just about every member of the Euphorbia family is toxic.

I remember when Thoughty2 covered this a few years back. This tree is basically Earth's fury and hatred in a tree. Seriously a messed up tree.

Who on earth finds a random fruit on the beach and is like "oh let me take a bite". 😒

4:54 thought it was my youngest cat, Raven making that noise at first, he's always making that noise when he's watching bugs/reflections on the ceiling, wanting treats, etc(mainly treats)
