There are a variety of plants growing in the wild, some plants can become a good medicine for saving people with a little use, while some plants are very dangerous, very toxic, and if serious, they will be fatal.
Today we are going to talk about a plant that can make people feel very painful, as long as you touch it, it can be extremely painful, torture people are worse than death, so it is called the most painful tree in the world, also known as the "suicide tree".
A plant that makes people miserable.
Thorn tree belongs to the nettle family hemp tree genus, as the name suggests, is a plant full of thorns, the slightest touch will make people feel painful, and the most powerful of them is the golden bark tree, the golden bark tree belongs to the thorn tree, in northeast Australia and the Moluccas Islands, Indonesia and other places are very common.
On the surface, the golden bark tree is not special, can be "harmoniously" integrated with other plants, its leaves are still heart-shaped, very cute, but if you look closely, you can find that it is full of dense small burrs all over the body, very dangerous, once accidentally touched, can make you painful to doubt life.
At this point, you may be thinking: it is okay to look closely as long as you don't touch it, and if you think so, you are very wrong, those small burrs on the golden bark tree do not weigh much.
Once it is blown by the wind or through any way it will float in the air, although it is not visible to the naked eye, but when you get close to it, the small burrs will enter the body along your respiratory system, causing poisoning, so when you are close to the golden bark tree, you have to protect yourself with full armament.
The golden bark tree has a "sour and refreshing" touch.
It is said that in 1941, when a soldier passed through Queensland, he accidentally fell on a golden bark tree, and immediately the soldier felt the pain of drilling his heart, and it was useless to send him to the hospital, and the doctor could only tie him to the bed, and after three weeks, the pain was alleviated a little.
There was also an officer, when going to the toilet in the field, there was no hand paper, so he used the leaves of the golden bark tree instead, and the result was that he died and lived in pain, and the doctor prescribed a lot of medicines that could not alleviate the pain.
According to expert research, when you are hurt by a thorn tree, the pain feels like you are stung by 30 bumblebees, you think it is very painful, in fact, when you are hurt by the golden bark tree, the pain is equivalent to you sitting on an electric chair, and then pour sulfuric acid, in addition, your armpit lymph nodes will become swollen, making you worse off than dead.
A study of the toxicity of the golden bark tree.
Through the study of the goldenbark tree, it was found that the goldenbark tree mainly relies on those small burrs on its surface to release toxins, but the specific composition of the toxin is not yet determined, it can be determined that the goldenbark tree is very similar to the venom in the body of the taro snail, and there are two toxin components of golden peel peptide and moroidin, of which the pain caused by moroidin is very small.
The reason why it will cause lasting pain is due to the burrs of the golden bark tree, these burrs are very fine and can inadvertently enter your body, because the main component of these burrs is silica, and the human body can not decompose silica, so it can only be slowly discharged from the body, so the pain can be retained in the human body for a long time, and the long-lasting pain makes you feel pain.
Although the pain caused by this golden bark tree is very terrible, there are some animals that are not afraid of the golden bark tree at all, such as the green ring-tailed possum and the swamp forest kangaroo, which also use the golden bark tree as food, and some insects can crawl around on it unaffected, so the golden bark tree is not invincible.
Everything in nature has its own natural enemies, but the toxin of the golden bark tree is still very scary for human beings, we must protect ourselves after encountering the golden bark tree, do not approach out of curiosity, and once there is a problem, we must be treated immediately.
At present, we have very little research on the goldenbarth tree, and the toxin composition in its body is not very thoroughly studied, and this terrible plant has attracted the attention of the British military, and British science once wanted to use the goldenbark tree to make chemical weapons, but in the end, for various reasons, the plan was not solved.
