- See what it’s like to get stung by the world’s most venomous fish, the Stonefish!
In this video I'm back in Australia to show you where stonefish live, how they defend themselves with venomous spines and then I will test the venom on myself to see just how bad this sting is vs the other toxic fish I’ve encountered before. First hand victims have claimed this is the most painful sting on earth. Now it’s time to find out.
Make no mistake, this is a very painful sting and I can’t stress enough that I’m a professional performing a controlled test. DO NOT try to recreate this video. Stonefish stings have the potential to be life threatening to certain individuals.
Big thanks to Miller Wilson for helping our team locate and understand Stonefish behavior in creating this video.

I didn’t even know stonefish could sting ! Thank you for all the animal information, your channel got me obsessed with animals when I was little and I’ve had an ever-growing fascination with them ever since. Whenever I tell my family or friends animal facts, they always say, “You learned that from Brave Wilderness, didn’t you?”
Same I didn’t know a stone fish could sting
I known it stung but not that painful
@@lovehamketsu3357really
@@lovehamketsu3357 yeah, like just enough to hunt prey, not defend against humans. It’s awesome.
How else would it envenomate something
I love how the fish doesn't have a flight response. He's so bad, he just let's himself get captured. He's like "You think you can take me? Alright, let's see you try."
It says as I shoot it
Lmao funny af
Yeah thats not how it works
Yeah that's so weird I've never seen a fish act like that
Mark: ok ready in 1,2,3 sting me !!!!😅😂😂
As a Aussie myself I didn’t think ANYONE would do this on purpose give this man a award 🥇
Darwin award maybe
I love your videos
Coyote peterson been doing this for years lol
I hope you dont think this is real
@@kayleneal_BSSit is real, but he jerked it off out of all it's venom before hand. He just got the dreggs.
“there have even been reported deaths.”
“anyway let’s touch it.”
thank you someone with common sense
The Stonefish being so toxic it has no flight reflex is like, a whole lesson in itself. Lol
one mode, fight.. lol
Suoer
I guess not only is the venom in the spikes, but also the fact that nothing can eat it.
The fact that the venom's color matches the barbs is awesome, sea animals are such amazing creatures
Blue is such an amazing colour when it's in nature, and it's pretty rare to see naturally as well. The video with the blue frog is still my favourite.
@@infinitedeath1384 absolutely agree, blue is my favorite color.
I would guess that the spines are translucent, and the venom is blue
yaaas the barbs i love nicki! 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
the spine is actually clear. the venom itself is blue. that's why the spine looks blue, it's full of venom.
Imagine how bad it would hurt if you stepped on it
I felt that
The only one that can beat the pain of stepping on legos
@@DampySenpai what about a stonefish little piece of Lego 😅
I love you rawwfishing
When I was 6 or so I was snorkeling in a shallow rocky area in Cuba and I literally jumped onto a stonefish by accident. I couldn't walk for several days, had insane swelling on my foot, and still have a spine-tingling fear of walking in bodies of water 15 years later. 1/10 would not recommend.
The difference in how calm Mark is during stings and bites vs how dramatic Coyote is will always be hilarious to me.
Sometimes coyote will do that but mainly he would be have the same reaction as brave wilderness
People's pain thresholds aren't the same tho so there's that
coyote took full bites and stings, with full venom. this was the lightest prick with the smallest amount of venom
@@zevo9314watch jacks world of wildlife, shows coyote is definitely just a showman (which is fine, it’s a business). I’ve been stung by a couple of the same things and it’s really not that bad.
I’m betting coyote plays it up for the cameras
It’s kinda cute how calm that little guy is. He was just kinda chillin’ in that little box.
They are cute, almost cuddly and they like people it's just the weapon system on their back but you have to tread on them, they don't attack you.
@@drewledge-re6vv❤❤
u got your glasses on gang? cuz we not looking at the same thing
I'm glad that Cyote gets a day off and he's not the only one going through pain
I thought something happened to Coyote, and that's why Mark is here taking the punch 👀 this does seem like a painful experience as a job tho, damn 😅

That blue venom is insane. I had no idea anything in nature looked like that.
Look up a video of a Japanese guy filleting a napoleon fish. Nearly all of its flesh is vibrant blue, the ocean and the life within is just incredible.
@@Irizumei just looked it up, it’s so beautiful how nature is man. never thought i would see these vibrant colors especially in animals.
It would have been very interesting if he did it on a spine that was still going to shoot a whole bunch of venom out.
look up a barreleye fish they dont look real 😂
@@te1e.bro wouldve been screaming in pain then
I used to work in The Great Barrier Reef. That is the mildest sting from a stone fish I've seen. It's not just the sting but the quantity of it that's the real threat because it hits so much harder and so much faster. I watched a reef diver get helicoptered to a hospital after stepping on one.
But the fact that you willingly took a microdose of it, well done dude, thats a brave thing.
Ah, he's an adrenaline junkie.
I love how Australia has every deadly creature you would see in a nightmare.
Yes. I tell my husband all the time I am NEVER going there lmao
And the funniest part is the horse and the cow are the deadliest things there.
@@popkittycatyeah and mosquitos are the deadliest in Africa, still want to go on a barefoot safari?
The stonefish is not only found in Australia though, also Red Sea and other coral heavy waters.
@@bungeyedsniper1391pretty sure it's a Hippopotamus
the fact that it didnt even care that you picked it up is insane, the confidence it has is crazy
I think this thing is only a bit smarter than a normal stone
@@xviii5780😂
Confidence? 😂 it’s a fish dude 😂
@@msemihkaya You're right if you think it doesn't have confidence. Instead, it has _confishdence!_
Not confidence or bravery on the fish's part. It likely doesn't even know what's going on. It's just existing. It doesn't need a thought process to survive like we do. You're looking at one of the dumbest living creatures & mistaking it's lack of awareness as confidence
What doesn't kill you make you stronger. At this point, Mark and Coyote are possibly the strongest man alive.
I mean thats not really true but by that logic I guess
Mark and Coyote vs. Adam and Caveman Rob!
LET'S GO!
@@vibinseal6416it makes you stronger mentally
@@strawberryscentedchlorofor9935 It propels your ego to greater lengths every time you hurt yourself
Yes
Being voluntarily stung by a stonefish? You guys truly deserve all of the views.
the spine already shot its load, and barely scratched his surface, this is nothing like what happens when you encounter one in the wild.
@@salazardjim4398 Right, because if you actually got pumped full of venom with all of the spines, you could potentially die. Mark did as much as he could without putting his life in danger
I just love how it constantly looks unimpressed 😂
He’s like “damn it’s not coyote..”
Turns out the stone fish won't kill you. You will just wish you were dead. They don't even have a flight response, they just sit there like "bro, you really don't want to do that".
U can most definitely die if you don't reach treatment in time.
He literally tell you in tha video “theres even been reported deaths because of tha stone fish”
@Unku. From people having an allergic reaction or a heart attack because of the amount of pain not the venom itself i think
@fosfan48 wrong. It's the most venomous fish on earth. Children and the elderly are at the most risk but it has killed and can kill you.... it can stop your heart beat and swell your lungs with the venom spreading in just a few minutes....
Wrong.
Judging by your reaction,either not enough venom came in or you have an amazing pain tolerance
Yeah Mark has an insane level of pain tolerance -- and he rolls with the pain instead of reacting intensely to it. Most people in his situation will at least scream and writhing in pain. Watch his reaction to the electric eel, you can see how he endures pain really well.
It was the most superficial pin prick. He had to squeeze the hell out of it just to get a drop of blood up. I don't blame him though for not taking a full hit just for a tv series.😂😂
he squeezed some from the skin test, so there's that.
Clearly didn't take a proper sting. Not even close
You can clearly see it’s a microdose. There would have been only the most minute traces of venom on the end of the spine, rather than the full ejaculation like the neoprene got
Alien: abducts MMA fighter: "beat me hard"
MMA fighter: "lol ok"
Alien: releases back MMA fighter.
Alien science.
Fun fact! Those "sheaths" around the spines are actually part of the venom sacks. As they become compressed (as the spine unsheathes) by your foot, the venom in them shoots up the spine and out the end into your foot. In other words, the Stonefish actually doesn't control the amount of venom going into you. That is determined by how hard you step on the fish
So he actually didnt get that mutch venom in him? That is scary.
@@iamphatphobic7617 Not much in comparison, but still quite a bit considering he pre-squeezed the sacks, so the spine was soaked in venom
@@chazzplaysytcopper554 Yeah for sure i would not have the balls to poke myself with that spike even if i emptied most of the venom.
Really? We couldn't tell by the close up video showing it.
@@gravyd316 Hey, it's just some info. The video is pretty good at showing it but doesn't go into detail about the mechanism
We Aussies are educated at a very young age about these sea creatures - you my friend, have balls of steel! even if you did only take a small tac from this fish
Imagine smacking your hand right on the spikes, so you get multiple injections and they penetrate deep in the hand 😣😫
@@infinitedeath1384it wasn’t multitude of venom I don’t think. I think stone fish are like snakes they get rid of venom and then they got none left so I got a very tiny bit of it
Imagine being so deadly you don't need fight or flight response, only fight.
And its really a "fight", since the fish just sits there and someone else pushing its spike does the job. The fish does nothing.
i didn’t even know stonefish could sting ! Thank you for all the animal informations, your channel got me obsessed with animals when I was the little boy and I’ve had an ever growing fascination with them ever since. Whenever I tell my family it friends animals facts, they always say, “You learned that from Brave Wilderness, didn’t you “??
My guy's a madman.. As an Aussie I know about these guys. I've also heard victims can have reoccurring pain in the area years later, with around the same intensity
Really? That's so weird. Cool fact.
Could it be psychological pain becuase of the possible trauma resulting from the sting?
@MD-sr9ve possibly. Ever heard oh amputees feeling pain in their phantom arm? Like that. Like phantom pain. I don't know how to logically explain it
@@anaussieplays763I mean it’s gotta be mental there’s nothing actually that’s causing it
@@Eshock-js6vz who knows if it alters anything along your nervous system 🤷
The fish is so confident and chill you can literally see the look of annoyance on its face putting up with all this 🤣🤣
He’s stoned. 😂
😂😂😂😂
Just like rattlesnakes, they just stand their ground ratteling knowing you are terrified.
Bro is not impressed by the meat sack humans picking him up.
This video was my intro to whole channel which i will continue bingewatching. Thanka!
It's really educational for us. Thank you so much❤❤
I was a Hospital Corpsman in the U.S. Navy for 22 years. While stationed on Guam at the Naval Hospital we would see stonefish sting victims on a fairly regular basis. Witnessing the symptoms of stings to the feet was horrifying to say the least. Lots of snorkelers and reef walkers kept us busy. The screams and the physical fighting (due to the pain causing uncontrollable hitting, kicking and yes biting)is horrible. Lets just say you are the only person that would do this ON PURPOSE. I salute you.
That’s pretty odd considering these fish are native to Australia and are very rarely found outside of Australian waters, the furthest they go is the indo pacific along reef systems. You may be thinking of similar fish there are other kinds in the stonefish family.
@@sharpshooter_Austhey're in Guam bro, use Google and your brain
I'm from guam, thank you for your service.
@sharpshooter420 just google it dude, there are apparently stonefish in Guam too. Australia is best known for it and yes they go west to African shores, but they do extend north of Australia all the way up to Japan, which I also didn't know until now.
Hooray for google I guess
@@sharpshooter_AusOr you could just walk on the Reefs in Guam and find out for yourself
The blue venom is really gnarly! I had no idea their venom was blue like that. Really neat.
thats actually fish in general because some fish have blue colored fluids and spines and its a rare mutation.
Ive had a snapper and needlefish that had blue meat and bones.
I watch these videos because they help me learn about cool animals like these, keep up the good work guys
Stepped on one of these with full force when I was 11 years old. The pain was so intense I couldn’t think. That is the most painful thing I’ve ever experienced.
I love the way the fish is like "yeah whatever, pick me up, put me on a box, you wont eat me, i'll cause you excruciating pain if you try any funny business"
And then the fish is like "what, wait a minute, you're going to sting yourself with me?"
That day, a stonefish got an ego check lol.
Humans' preceding their reputation everyday. Fish: "😮"
I mean it was half checked, he got his hand stung by a depleted sting, that's some mad respect for the venom
The Stonefish's channel suddenly uploads a "I let myself get captured by the most dangerous ape ON THE PLANET!!!" video.
The stonefish would be saying "don't do it, it's gonna really f'in hurt and I don't want to be responsible for that, man". Stoned fish might be a better name.
Both Coyote & Mark are indeed THE bravest men to enter the Sting Zones with these animals & bugs. They both deserve a medal
Nothing brave about retardation
This is not bravery…..it’s stupidity
Mark is lowkey annoying hes trying to act like coyote like using the same phrases and facial expressions i prefer coyote
@@JoeMama-lq2jfprobably because theyre friends, on the same show, doing the same thing? Idk man seems kinda crazy that they act the same
Animals, bugs, and the Gympie Gympie plant at some point also
It's so amazing to see how much mark has come into his own these past few years
The fish just sitting there while he’s freaking over the pain 😹 he’s so chill
Let’s appreciate all the pain he has to go through for hours just for us to be entertained for a few minutes.
Not entertained…educated lol
hours? id say days they probably get sick sometimes after these videos
To think he got a baby prick that didn’t shoot much venom
@@LickerofToes edutained
He's making a fortune by doing this though, it's not for nothing.
I know I’ve been gone for a while, but Coyote be looking mighty different in these videos. Lol.
Same lmao. Wtf happened to him 😬
😂
He needs rest after all the stuff he did. We don’t blame him
@@JetBlack2024please explain? I’m not caught up on coyote lore 😂
Ah yes Coyote thats the name I forgot
My brother and I were thought to have stood on a Stonefish in the 1960's in Gladstone Qld Australia (since we did not see what we stood on). It got me on the right side of my foot near my little toe. We were standing in shallow water on a rocky surface about ankle deep. It immediately stung and we went to hospital. From memory, I stayed in hospital for about 3 days. My ankle blew up like an old person's bloated leg (excuse the description :(). They thought we recovered very well. Not fun but it's a memory :)
My brother was with me and I've always thought he too was stung too but since I never spoke to him in depth, I'm not sure what he experienced.
What's terrifying is, this is an example of someone with an extraordinarily high pain tolerance, taking a tiny and brief sting. Someone with a lower pain tolerance, and/or someone who takes a deeper/longer sting, or is stung by more spines at once, terrifying to think about.
Bro is reeling in pain from the most painful sting in the world but checks to see if the stone fish is okay before applying first aid. That's some major Steve Irwin energy ❤
Mark Vins is literally Coyote's right hand man, Mark is willing to take bites and stings like a boss. Keep up the awesome work guys. 😎
Would of been better if he did it to a stinger that he didn't already take venom from
@@mabyonedayicanbehappyyea .. would of been better if he just stepped on it full force too right
@@gkrees9509 no that would be worse.
@@gkrees9509hahah fr
Love how the fish just sits there quietly xD
You got good people with ya man the "you okay mark" was too real
5:30 not only are the spines designed to shoot the most amount of venom into your foot but because there are so many spines and close together, if you step on a stonefish you will normally wind up having multiple spines penetrate your foot, not just one. Having spines only on the top of it’s body also tells you that the biggest issue the fish has with it’s camouflage is that it works so well that the top of its body is the only part that needs defending… from us who wander in the ocean and can’t see them. The stonefish doesn’t muck around with defence.
I stepped on one and I had 5 pricks on my foot and the pain was intense and unrelenting.
Kind of a "Screw everyone" defense isn't it. They're designed to not be seen but, if we don't see them, we get up to 13-14 spines in our foot
Cool😊
I live near these fish!
Not planning on stepping on one, though.
I've stepped on sea urchin before and that was bad enough 😅
You should try it@@hannahalexy
dude that stone fish is so chill, not even gonna move a bit while it's getting lifted up on the surface. I can tell its gonna be a good pet
Thank you mark, someone who was brave enough to take a stonefish sting
Holy heck man, great job keeping me hooked the whole video. Glad you didn't take the FULL dose of venom, what you took given your experience already highlights the hell it would be for victims.
full dose would have been a REALLY bad idea
For real
Yes
@@BraveWildernessTrue. This dose on the other hand, was a great idea!
Yea for real
It's weird how docile and calm they are
I know he’s just chilling there 💀
Well they have their defences on their backs… so of course it’s just going to chill out when it can. It’s not likely to get a frontal attack
they're like "try me"
I'm guessing it's because absolutely nothing wants to eat it. Every creature living in it's environment probably instinctually knows at this point that it's a death sentence to mess with them.
When you are at the peak of poisonous in the animal kingdom, the only thing left is to be chill about it and enjoy being a badass stonefish
Thank you for the information 👍
Great vid. I see you can buy armored insoles for shoes (for use on building sites etc - I wonder if lining some reef shoes with these would give you protection against being stung?
I'm surprised no reef shoe manufacturers make sting proof shoes. I had a look, and can't seem to find much about.
Is it just me, or does Mark have a way higher pain tolerance than Coyote?
Coyote: AHHH! ITS LIKE FIRE! AHHH!
Mark: This is very uncomfortable.
I don’t know about a higher pain tolerance, maybe just different ways of expressing it.
Mark said it was borderline unbearable, I just assume they show it differently
That's because Coyote likes to oversell his reactions. Probably to scare people, but also it gains more attention.
@@TyroneIsHere4UrAssyou get bit by an approximation of an Australian death worm and walk it off
@@DMZZ_DZDM someone showcased that being stung by a bullet ant doesn't make you roll over and scream in agony the way Coyote Peterson does.

@@calebheiligenstadt634oh the irony. *theyre
@@Daniel_0778Well if it is that harmless just go ahead and do it yourself. I bet you would take it like a king. Gosh is it that hard to realize that the dosis was meant to give an example of the pain you feel when stung by this fish? For that reason the amount of venom was more than enough.
You handle the pain very well sir
I love how the stonefish just sits there calmly taking it all in.
That’s the most chill fish I’ve ever seen. Also, that was hella dangerous.
What's crazy is now Mark is literally taking stings that are lethal. I'd imagine things like this are well thought out medically.
Well to be fair, it seems like he did the neoprene first which shot most of the venom off and only coated the spike. I think that was a calculated way to both show us what would happen and also reduce the amount of venom he’d receive. He did say he was only taking a micro dose.
Either way, it’s still a big deal. I’m not trying to downplay what he did, just saying I think that was on purpose.
@@Not_Cielwow , I didn’t think of that. That’s brilliant while still showing us the potential of this sting
Does that mean the blue ringed octopus is next?
“The stonefish, a master of hiding, the most painful sting, it knows he’s the most painful”
The stonefish: 🪨🗿
It’s so chill. Like “do your thing man I’m good” lol
It's hilarious how chill that fish was about the whole thing. That's the end result of an animal putting all its skill points into defense.
The best offense is a Good defense
Tank fish 😂
You would too if you got like 6 stings on your back full with venom
Imagine if he took the full venom without milking it first. It's crazy how potent that sting is.
I know the exact feeling your feeling right now man I stepped on one 2 years ago, don’t ever wish it on anyone.
I love how even though he was in pain, he was still checking on the fish's well-being, lol
This Amount of pain this guy go through just to teach us Is amazing and how he risk his life to teach us what a legend
Well he’s also a millionaire from doing this. lol
The other og guy is better tho
@@alexrich3969yea
I agree
Teach what? How to get sting? 😅
Mark is like the bravest (and craziest) man in the world... he is literally the first and only person in the world to voluntarily take a stonefish sting...This fish is more toxic than a black mamba... this guy deserves my respect!👏👏👏
Nah Coyote Peterson is better
Not true my boy, The Kings Of Pain on discovery channel have done it already.
The guys from Kings of pain are completely nuts. They also put like their whole hand on the stonefish so they were probably stung multiple times at once
@@great_Caligola No. I think you're wrong... I've been following History's Kings of Pain here on CZcams since before I met Brave Wilderness and they've never been skewered by a stonefish... the furthest they got was when they decided to get stung by one scorpionfish, they even commented on how dangerous the stonefish was when they were about to be skewered by the scorpionfish, and said that they would never take the sting of a deadly creature like it (stonefish).
He literally juiced the venom before hand and then barely pricked the least painful part of his hand
*Gets stung by the most painful sting on earth*
"You okay Mark ?"
"Yeah"
Truly Great remarkable Bravery you displayed! Good to know that, hot water & vinegar can treat Toxic stinGs. Good job, Stay Safe 👍🏽
You know an animal’s venom is gonna be painful beyond comprehension when it starts squirting out a fluid that looks like it came from a mountain dew bottle
That’s one of the most confident fishes I’ve ever seen in my entire life
He’s like ‘Pet me m8’
I love his "sup bro? : ] " face
We all love this channel❤

The fish is just so unbothered 🤣
Holy smokes, you’re ballsy. That demonstration before the sting was actually scary. I really hope you guys get paid the big bucks for doing stuff like this haha. That was wild
Right?? I just pictured that being someone's foot and my jaw was on the floor. They're so blue too!!
I like how you don’t really dramatize the sting. It’s an honest show
Mark is a lot better than Coyote in that respect. Not that I doubt some of the stings he takes are bad but he's such a diva for the sake of the algorithm on even relatively minor stings.
If you wanna see someone that doesnt dramatizes a sting at all, check out Jack’s World of Wildlife, he even took a Black Widow and Brown Recluse bite.

2:00 that stonefish was literally ready to be presented. Its hilarious
That’s probably because it’s straight out of a aquarium, you don’t see stonefish just casually swimming around like this in shallow pools in Australia. They’re normally motionless. Seemed very set up tho me. Even the colour of the stonefish seemed like it had been out of the water before he picked it up. Trust me, I’ve caught dozens of them. I know the exact spot this guy is at too. It’s Redcliffe in Queensland. I’ve spent a lot of time in those shallow rock pools. Yes Stonefish are there but you don’t ever come across them swimming around like that.

Got stung by a stonefish in Mexico in 2014. I remember telling them to cut the foot off because it would stop the pain. This video seriously underplays the amount of pain a full sting causes.
then goddamn this dude has some balls of steel of he can withstand that pain
i always thought Coyote was a crazy man but Mark is as crazy by catching it with his bare hands what a dude
If you know how to pick them up, ie, from the front and with your hands underneath - then you’re pretty safe. Just don’t approach them from over the top - the spines will become erect, and might get nailed.
@@nathanwilliams2152 still wouldn’t be me tho
Stonefish: having most painful sting on the planet
Also stonefish: is in Australia
“The stonefish has an average sting for its location”
The Fish: 🗿
The stonefish found on the East Coast of Africa has a greater volume of venom and a more potent venom. JLB Smith, a famous South African ichthyologist, recounted getting stung by one in the thumb. It took 3 years for his hand to heal completely and regain its former strength. From his book, High Tide.

stonefish stings can be fatal right?? the amount of risks y'all take to provide us w entertainment and education is rlly impressive and respectable
The pain response can be fatal resulting in nerve damage and you can go into shock but most people live. They wish they were dead though. Morphine and even amputation of the leg don't stop the pain. There have been suicides over it they say.
Only sources I found stated only 2 people have died from a stonefish sting and both were in their 50's. No doubt it's excruciating but it's lethality is probably overstated.
There have been few deaths from them. I don't think you would even need anti-venom after being stung. You just need to be hooked up to a heart rate monitor and ride the pain out.
@@CDizzle3270always searching up stuff huh
No, this is incredibly irresponsible. These guys have culminated a VERY large following of young fans who are actively recreating their stunts. It’s why he’s pissed off the reptile handling and invertebrate handling communities. This is no longer educational, it’s dangerous.
Seems like every step you take in Australia could end up being your last (regardless of the type of surface you are walking on) 🥺
This was sheer insanity. Why would anybody ever do this willingly...
Nah, it's exaggerated a fair bit. I've grown up in Australia, i live in Queensland now in my 40's. Half the snakes i've seen have only been at snake shows. Haven't seen that many in the wild and i go hiking pretty much weekly. I've only seen a stonefish once when i was snorkeling off Lennox Head, and only saw it because it moved. Never seen a Blue Ringed Octopus, Cone shell, or Box Jellyfish, and it's been years since i've seen a medically significant spider. You've got more chance of being robbed here than you have of encountering our wildlife.
@@Spacegoat92 thanks for the clarification. Most us Americans have this view of Australia. Looks like a beautiful country with great people, but all the deadly animals scare us away from wanting to visit.
That hand has gone through more than most people 💀
This is also one of the first times I've seen Mark have a reaction as bad as one of Coyotes. He's usually been quite calm, even throughout a lot of pain
True. This is how you know that things are really bad.
It's because Coyote Peterson fakes his reactions. Mark is being genuine here, because it's actually really painful.
@lordfabulous6198 let's go get stung by bullet ants guys 💪😄
@@shadowguy7991 He literally juiced the venom before hand and then barely pricked the least painful part of his hand
@@Exoke while that would reduce pain, sure, it's important to note that the stone fish is considered the most painful sting in the world, be it insect or otherwise. Also, that it is fatal in normal doses (AKA: stomping your foot on it). He was doing the only amount that could be considered "safe". Have you not heard of the claims of people wanting amputations to escape its sheer pain when given a full dose on the foot?
9:52 “hang on i gotta walk it off” bro i expected him to step on another stone fish on his walk 😂
thank you very much !! Gained knowledge 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Imagine stepping on one with your full committed weight. Not only would you almost certainly get more than one spine, but they would stab deep into your foot and inject an immense amount of that venom into your tissue, for as long as it takes you to step back off of it. Nightmare fuel.
this guy is way to nice and chill to be handling an alien like that
Lol chill before they all grow legs
DANGGGGGG THIS GUY WENT ALL OUT. give him credit, because he just got stung by a fish some people die to, for us, and science, of course. if you do read this, thank you.
Not true my boy, The Kings Of Pain on discovery channel have done it already. Plus they got stung by multiple spines and didn't milk it all of its venom before doing so.😂
@@kevinnguyen9138 so..? Lol.
@@kevinnguyen9138 wha-
I wouldn't exactly say "all out"...unless you meant almost "all out" of Venom. He milked the spine of Venom and barely pricked his skin... hardly "all out!"
@@tmcmillan45 i said “all out” because he went to the extreme level on what he was doing. more simple?
"Lives up of being the most painful fish on the planet"
Great White: 👁👄👁 am I a joke 2 u?
And THANK YOU FOR THE ANIMAL INFORMATION
When I learned about the stonefish in 5th grade science, I couldn't even sleep that night cuz I was so scared of accidentally stepping on one randomly and dying. This man is insane
I swear! I thought it was a much bigger issue than it really us 😅
@@lLIBER4TORl Yeah that and quicksand LOL
For real! Bermuda triangle too lol
Yeah and I was fishing so I was terrified
That was unbelievable, never thought anyone would voluntarily let themselves be stung by a rockfish. Imagine accidentally stepping on it, having the sting with full load of toxin deep in the foot and without expecting it, so also not being prepared with countermeasures. If you are alone or the vehicle is further away, you have no chance at all. You can't even walk anymore.
What about stepping on it and drown afterwards?
@@aboyaq7259or your face lands on another stone fish after stepping on one
Then you fall nuts first on it.
@@donotcareatallShould save that one for the final destination reboot
@@mo_musashi_284lmao yeah that’d be very unfortunate
