SCORCHED by the Dumb Cane!

This is NOT your average house plant! Although it looks like or may even be a plant in your home, do NOT try an experiment such as this.

On today's episode, Coyote travels to Costa Rica to compare the effects of the Dumb Cane leaf, stalk, and stem when touched to his arm. Perhaps not surprisingly to some, he was also dumb enough to touch the stem to his tongue!

While Coyote's side effects in this video were mild, make no mistake, this plant can cause severe irritation, burning, and even death.

HUGE THANKS to the Bio Sur Foundation for leading this adventure at the Río Nuevo Nature Reserve. Their mission is to protect the endangered wildlife of Costa Rica by creating rainforest reserves through land acquisitions, environmental education of the local population, and engagement with national and international partners.

Coyote: "im still alive"

Nature: "im running out of things to try and kill him with"

[Domsday]

"This can kill you if you eat it so I'm just going to lick it." The things this man does for science.

[mhmghb]

I feel the crew. That feels like total parental "I told you not to do that but you just knew better" energy.

[LTXiao]

9:56 everyone just being casual and normal
Coyote: Straight up dies

[calvinvlog]

this is the 2nd or 3rd most entertaining video coyote has ever made.

[hofficalz]

It's the deep, exasperated sighs from the crew that got me

[mikkothefreak]

I have been watching Coyote for 5 or 6 years and i am still not bored

[Fishing]

This dudes running out of things to be stung or stuck by, legend

[_mzgames]

“This wasn’t our idea, this was his idea” YALL LITERALLY SAID “DO IT” 😂😂😂

[TrevorTatro]

At first I saw coyote’s kitchen and became green with jealous rage it didn’t belong to me. Then I remembered… this man earned every tile in that perfectly crafted kitchen through the stings of demons.

[JDPyrotechnics]

*Coyote screeching about to vomit*
*video stops*
"Hi it's Ryan Reynolds with mint mobile..."

[Sophie-and-Ken]

I got exposed to this when I was a teenager. My mother grew tired with this plant and I cut it up with my bare hands. I thought I was going to die. Nothing remove the effects. It was the worst experience of my life.

[ternel]

I promise to never ever walk into a jungle and start licking plants

[mightymorphingmemory]

5:07 proceeds to wrap a joint and then talk about how deadly potent it is lol

[A_termite]

Bros guardian angel is the rock but even stronger💀

[mandoholikerin]

i love the calm hotel lobby music scenes while coyote screaming his lungs out in the background. it's a vibe

[lilahmiller]

“ EHhhHhhH EHHhhH AHhhHhhhHhh “ Coyotes Famous last words

[unsatisfiedfans]

After done indexing animal stings, Coyote is now indexing plant stings

[JiTheProtogen]

I can't believe this guy is being through a lot of stuff and he still standing what are legends

[MrDabman]

Hey, Coyote? I'm glad you're still alive. Please keep living for us. And hey, you don't have to keep pushing the envelope if you're afraid for your life. Your health and well-being comes first!
