nature: *makes it abundantly clear that this thing is not supposed to be eaten*

humans: hehe tastey

Imagine ordering fugu and the chef is staring into your eyes from across the room the entire time you eat.

Fun fact about Fugu (eating puffer fish)

Not only do you have to remove the bones, organs and skin of the puffer fish without puncturing the organs (spilling excess toxin on the flesh)

But you also wash the flesh many many times in cold clean water to remove any possibility of contamination (and flavor ironically), leaving behind a very bland but fresh tasting piece of white fish that has a good texture, but no flavor to really write home about except every so often it may give you a small "tingle" as some of the toxin remains, making your lips or such tingle a bit.

Also it is illegal to throw the bones, skin, organs or such of the fish in the trash, as the chef / restaurant is liable if a homeless man digs into a dumpster and eats the fish, so they usually use a special biohazard disposal container with a lock to prevent any hungry people or animals or criminals (who may try to use the toxin as a poison), for throwing it away.

Lots of other little interesting things about it, but I think that is all for now. Was watching the video, and the entire time I was wondering if he was going to forget about the fact that people eat it xD

Man humanity had a 0% chance of leaving the forbidden fruit uneaten

“But don’t worry it gets worse”

Aw thank god bro you had me worried there

[notareallifetiger]

Most poisonous animal in the world: *exists*

Humans: ah yes, a delicacy.

“But don’t worry, ”
That’s a relie-
“It gets worse.”

The worst part is that you'd be awake and aware of everything until lack of oxygen made you unconscious.

"you would suffer from one hell of a headache but Dont worry it gets worse"
"Dont bother praying because whoever you are praying to is going to see you very soon"
Damn, savage

"Every year someone loses the bet."

This is oddly specificaly true, since 2000, 23 people have died from eating this fish an average of 1 per year (mostly prepared it themselves).

Imagine the process it's taken for chefs to figure out how to safely prepare this. Some daimyo in ancient Japan probably REALLY wanted to eat that fish. I wonder how many food tasters died for it.

The fact that dolphines use this fish as a

[drunkonfire]

Would also be important to mention that:
1. A chef goes through years of training to be able to serve the fish without the toxins, and don’t quote me on this but I’m pretty sure they also need a permit from the Japanese government to serve it
2. The people that die from eating the dish itself are buying it illegally, as those chefs are not as properly trained as the legal ones and thus can charge way less for it, but also risking the tiniest bit of toxin to get on the rest, and there’s a lawsuit and jail time for the chef.
3. The amount of people that die from it are always in the single digits, likely because most people eat Fugu that has been prepared by someone capable of doing so, and the few that don’t are cut from the census.
Anyways, love your vids but just wanted to point this out!

"Don't worry it gets worse" is my new favorite line.

[Glitchblade]

"Don't even bother praying because whoever your praying to is probably gonna see you very soon"

Dang dude that's actually one of the best quotes ever

[Jubin]

"don't worry it gets worse"

*Thanks. I'm no longer worried*

[karuhisharonkananu]

"At this point don't bother praying cause whomever you're praying to will see you soon" that part got me 😂😂😂😂😂😀

[plague_doctor]

Fun fact: dolphins use tetrodotoxin to get high, and it absolutely shows. Also another fun fact, they pass the pufferfish around like you would pass a joint

[-rb]

Fun fact, more people in Japan die from eating bad oysters than fugu (puffer fish). The license you need to be able to serve the fish requires you to know all varieties of puffer, all their poisonous bits, and how to carve them out. It usually takes 2/3 years before chefs training for the exam actually take it.
