Bro u are a legend
The pain you've been taking for years is truly amazing so are something special
Love your videos
@bravewilderness Sml made a video of you I Sall your comment is was really funny to be honest 🤣
5 minutes ago! Hi coyote!
i think he got stung by the stinging nettle
The fact that the Gympie Gympie is still affecting his arm is insane. That plant is no joke.
Yeah, actually shows just how much nerve damage that plant can do.
I guess there's a good reason it's known as the su*cide plant
Yup, was just wondering that, bacause those are some loooong lasting effects.
You can imagine some one tripping and falling into a whole bush of the gympie gympie
Sei pazzo🤣
I know stinging nettles and they're really not that bad at all so him ranking the gimpy gimpy at 4 had me expecting the stinging nettle rating compared to the Gimpy gimpy to be more like 0.1
Stinging nettles are found absolutely everywhere here in the UK. I once had a rather large patch growing at the bottom of my garden. I was going to get rid of it, but then a man tried climbing over my fence one night trying to break in. He climbed up on my plum tree, which promptly snapped and he dropped 6 feet down into said patch of nettles. Funniest thing I've ever seen. I kept them after that as biological home security!
cartoony as hell😂
I used to have to use vinegar to save my entire body
Maybe you should make a mobile game off of this concept, and call it "Plants vs Zombies" 🤔
@@ajayr1383maybe make a franchise out of it
Same with Australia, they are everywhere 😭
“This is such a bad idea!” Proceeds to keep doing it 💀
Coyote: Rubs it once
"This is such a bad idea"
Coyote: Rubs like another ten leaves on any exposed part of his arm
Fr. He test it out for our viewers to be careful of these things.
The fact I haven’t you in 5 years and forgot you existed and you just popped up brought back so many old memories 😭
Fr
So true
Except I wasn't 5
Like I watched him for like 5 years and I just forgot all about him.
Same
I was stung by nettles a lot as a kid... Dock leaves are usually nearby and do help
I was gonna say this is exactly what I grew up with. I always walked the dogs as a kid and a lot of the pathways were overgrown with stingers and I would always use doc leaves as a remedy. I never really knew if they helped more than any other relatively moist leaf or if it was psychological, but it did feel a little better than nothing.
Dock leaves do nothing, they're placebo, even so tested it out myself, didn't expect dock leaves to work, and.. yeah.. they didn't do anything at all.
Guessing your British?

In Poland as kids we'd literally play with stinging nettles to rub it against our friends for fun. 🤣 Now I'm realizing why the pain and rash that came with it was so bad that I still remember it to this day.

The folk tales here say that getting stung by stinging nettle is beneficial for blood vessels and your circulatory system in general. Additionally, unless you are having an allergic reaction (which is pretty rare) to the nettle, the stinging is completely harmless.
Another fun fact, the nettle only has trichomes while it is young in the spring and loses trichomes as it grows older. During autumn the nettle doesn't sting at all. So big up for Coyote for doing the video when the nettle is at its most stingy even though this pain is basically nothing compared to all the hell he endured. We eat the nettle in the autumn due to its high iron content. I can't really stand the taste, but a lot of people here enjoy it.
are you from Romania or the balkans?
Stinging nettle is currently being studied for pain relief in chronic joint pain! If you routinely sting around the affected joint, a few times a week, it can help relieve that chronic pain long-term.
The native people use the nettles for many things. I've heard a tea made from the Nettle and pine needles is good for making a " detox" for your system ( gets your bowels moving ) .
it grows in my yard and I eat it and make tea with it every year. and i think coyote wimped out on this one just because i pick them without gloves and they can only sting you if you lightly brush on them. i used to smack them with my hand to mess with people.
Where do you live to eat stinging neddle and how do you cook it, I'm a professional chef and I've never heard of it
Met coyote on middle bass this past weekend. Coolest dude Ive ever met. It was an honor Coyote!
nice
We’ll time to go search for a wild coyote entering the pain zone 🔭
Relax
Stinging nettle is very common in NZ! It is everywhere in my orchard and back yard, and I even fell in a massive stinging nettle bush at a school event. Don’t worry, it really doesn’t hurt that much at all.
I would like to say there is a leaf that grows close called the “dock leaf” and it helps the pain a lot, here in the uk you get stung left, right and centre! So them growing around the stinging nettles is a life saver. There is also a leaf that looks a lot like a nettle, it has one different distinct feature and that is that it has white flowers with it.
I knew a friend who would always touch stinging nettles n he would bleed but he didn't care...
He's finished with the insect kingdom, now he's looking for the most painful plant sting, lol.
Well he shouldn’t be going to the stinging nettle they don’t hurt much at all, you can barely feel em
Lol 😂nice one 😂😂
Back in elementary school I would pick nettles up barehanded and tell other kids that it was a species that didn't sting and they'd go for it and get stung. A couple of times they even thought the nettle in my hand was special so they took it and got stung again. I got stung way more than them while "demonstrating" how it doesn't sting, but it was worth it.
Lmao😂
Dude 😭😭
Bro is the main villain of the story
That's psychopathic behavior
When I was 7 I used to crawl into the infestation of them at a friend's house. I learned how to go through them with minimal stings since they were very common in the town I lived in.
I was riding my mountain bike through an improvised route in a forest while wearing shorts. I went through some "tall grass", and became intimately familiar with stinging nettles. I road as fast as I could to try and sweat them out, and it seemed to work, but safe to say, I'm not taking that route again.
I like how for the sponsorship, he doesn’t just stick it in one part of the video, he kind of merges it into some places to make it much more enjoyable
Dude these video’s keep getting crazier and crazier and I missed Coyote
stinging nettle does not hurt AT ALL.
@@OfficialPunsyh usually we just brush against it by accident only a small amount just feels annoyingly itchy. But I just get a dock leaf to help it does wonders.
Mark's better
@@notrustfunderz Coyote is better
@@notrustfunderzMark is extremely dry... Really hard to watch honestly.
New Zealand has a species called the Ongaonga - The Tree Nettle, or Urtica Ferox. The nettles on the leaves are huge and look like spiked glass, and the shrub grows up to 3m tall. And yes, it is both toxic and beyond painful to be stung by it, causing ataxia, confusion, hyper salivation and breathing problems. It's one of the few plants in the country that has actually killed at least one person.
Wow! I live here and had no idea 😮 To be fair though I live in Auckland and rarely venture into the bush.
I mean no offense at all but I misread “Ongaonga” as “Unga bunga” 😹
Ofc its just stinging nettle on crack in AU of all places
@@abyssalfelix9ok clown
Coming back to this channel after like 4 years and man there is a lot to watch.. to think you could still be in sting retirement, so glad you are still doing this for us, its top tier entertainment!
My Dad picks these things by hand weeding the garden, and says it helps stop is allergies because the histamines go to the spots he's touched. He tells me to try it for my allergies. I do not. That guy is made of something else I tell ya.
so fun fact, in Germany, people make soup, tea, fertilizer, and also use it to improve blood circulation by...yes you guessed it rubbing it on the arms and legs. In many places, it is not allowed to cut it down because of bee, butterflies, and other insects like the blossom.
wow, thanks 4 telling us that! interesting facts can always save your life!!! x
Nettle soup was also fed to prisoners of war, which wouldn't be too bad if nettle soup on its own had basically zero nutritional value. The tea is goated though.

dude I've been watching your videos for 8 or 9 years. just came back. I love how you haven't changed. i will for sure continue watching you.
I just saw a video where a woman with arthritis and numbness/coldness in her hands took her hands and arms and raked them all over this nettles plant and it helped! Her condition is unknown by doctors and she found this method of essentially stinging herself all over her arms helped better than any medication. The more you know!
Yeah! Most people in my area know that it has some healthy additions to the stings, but I never knew that it was so curing! It's amazing!
Once, My dad was cycling down a riverbank, and fell down the side, through stinging nettles, and into the water, and had to be rescued by paramedics. He had stings everywhere, and they affect him to this day.
Says " I am going to go pretty hard" proceeds to go harder than I even thought was possible with a plant! That's dedication to the craft and so dedicated you were slapping your arm with the stinging plant! Your crazy man just amazingly crazy, from watching you jump catch snapping turtles, now your going hard with stinging plants, I love the character progression!
You just told us that a previous plant still affects you. Then proceeded to use the exact same spot for this one. Results are immediately tainted 😕
True but he said it’s only sometimes so maybe it doesn’t affect it here? Probably would have been better to use the other though you’re right
I tried the jewelweed on a nettle sting before and it worked great, after I used it the only symptom left was my skin felt slightly sensitive, no pain at all.
The technique I used was to take a small wad of leaves and roughly roll them in my palm until it started to feel wet, you need the juice, then just use that on the sting
I just removed a ton in my own garden. Fun Fact, My grand mother removed these with bare hands. She was suffering from artritis. It was a relieve for her and even helped against the artritis. You can even make a delicious soup of this plants.
I hate stinging nettles! I was in Girl Scouts when I was young and ended up scraping my legs on them. It hurt so much! Of course my mom put tons of calamine lotion all over my legs. Thanks for the video Coyote!
They aren’t that painful. Me and my friends used to play swords with them
@@user-zh5oc1bl6c woah
Bruv they aint that bad, If you forget about them then you cant feel any pain
Yeah I’ve had them before, i just put some lotion on it and it was ok
@@user-zh5oc1bl6c bro what😭
I was in Rwanda climbing up to Diane Fossey’s home. I read about stinging nettle before I got there and the article said to wear gloves. One of the African guides told me that I didn’t need them and within 2 minutes I stumbled on the rocks and grabbed stinging nettle! It was like a severe sunburn that lasted for about 24 hours! Don’t believe what guides tell you!😩
Guides grew up grabbing that stuff. Probably made nettle balls and had nettle ball fights. Put some in a friend's hand and tickle their face while they sleep.
Guides maybe just dont stumble
The top of the leaves cant sting you, so if you ever need to handle one and dont have gloves you can push a leaf against the stem and use that to grab it.
@@FUBARguy107
Guides use nettles instead of toilet paper.
Grows everywhere in my area(sweden). Anywhere there is shade there is also stinging nettles, it just itches, but if you get a big stinger thing it can be quite painful. I just wash with soap and water and then put lotion on, helps a lot. But something actually quite nice, pick the young leaves and make a soup! Very delicious, kind of like green kale soup.
0:34 “SO IM GONNA- I just swallowed a bug PUCGHAAH HUH”
amazing
When I was around 10, I fell into a patch of nettles. I had shorts on, nothing else.
Face, back, chest, stomach, arms and legs!
Thank God for those shorts!
I had exactly the same experience man.. haha
same bro
luckely i avoided stinging fields as a kid... had sunburn with blisters tho 😬
I rolled through some while quad ridding I didn’t even feel it just looked and small the massive rashes left by em and saw the plants I rolled over
Been there, done that, got the tshirt.
One day would like to see Coyote and Steve-O work together on the pain index.
That's a good Idea.

Nah man should do it with Bear Grylls
I miss the show called Wildboyz with Steve o and Chris pontious. It was basically stuff like this 😂
@@mosswine5417great show
Here in Austria we collect the small nettle leafes on top, boil them so they cant sting anymore and make soup, spinach and tea out of it. Tastes awesome and is very healthy.
You also can dig out the roots and make a tincture out of it.
Very effective against cystitis, anemia, iron deficiency and general exhaustion.
I used to have a clubhouse type thing in the woods that me and my friends would hang out in. The initiation that everyone had to do before they could enter was to get stung by stinging nettle.
I have been watching its videos for a long time and I feel like I am going to those places along with them and it thrills me a lot. Their experience is of very high quality and whatever knowledge they have acquired is also of high quality, their style of telling, their activities help us connect with nature, we get to walk with nature, so I hope that we always keep experiencing adventure.
"Today, we're entering the bite zone... of the saltwater crocodile"
For those wondering why Jewelweed is called "touch me not", its because the seed pods explode with some force when you touch them.
He should try that
Having grown up in the UK on a farm and farmed myself, I’m way less sensitive than others to nettles. But I once got stung by one in the gobi desert that was on another level and stayed with me for days
This is not a stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) or a slender stinging nettle (Urtica gracilis). It is a wood nettle or Canada nettle (Laportea canadensis) and it is much more painful to get stung by than the stinging nettle.
Felt something was off too, the nettels of the stinging nettle look more like fine hair that thin thorns and the fact that he had to put quite some effort into it. The stinging nettle usually only takes light touch to get some effect
I agree
Actuall stinging nettles leafs are smaller
Thank you for saying this. I was thinking, “I collect stinging nettle all the time. That’s not Urtica.”
yep this is the dear lord dont eat this stinging nettle not the hey this goes well in leek soup stinging nettle
Love the videos I have Been watching since I was young great to see that the content is still amazing!
I fell into a patch of stinging nettles and my whole arm from the tip of my fingers to my elbow was covered in MASSIVE bumps. It took about a month to go down and I still have some red spots from them hahah but I liked the tingle of pain they gave me bc it felt nice
A week ago I went on a kayaking trip near my home town in new Hampshire. While sitting down for lunch, my left hand grazed by one of these nettles. It stung pretty bad but it was only one or two nettles that hit my hand. I got one pretty big welt but the swelling went down within a few hours. I can't imagine hundreds of these things in your arm. Your one tough cookie. Thanks for the science you teach on your channel. I admire you going through this for science lol.
Its a normal plant in Poland
Not once i got sting af
It doesnt hurt. More of a annoyance. Itchy af.
But tea from that is good and healthy :3
Same here in england
I haven't watched your videos in years. I ran into this one on my recommended, so thank you Coyote, Peterson.
I purged way way too much gas out of a water heater around 2006. Very memorable (and brainless). Lit the pilot light and boom! A quick and silent explosion. My entire face felt as if I face planted right on top of a stinging nettle bush. My eyelids melted slightly. When I. blinked, My eyes wanted to stay closed and vise versa. So glad I wasn’t exhaling during the blast. No structural damage. Great lesson learned that should not have required a lesson. 🙏🙏
My granddaughter loves ur videos!!! Started w Gila monster and now when she gets in car w me she wants Coyote Peterson!!! Thanks for exploring nature and taking a “hit” for all of us!!!!
This guy's going for the world record for the first human being to be stung by over 200 things
Really I thought he was going for 600
Germany is full of two species of stinging nettles - Urtica dioica (Big Stinging Nettle) and Urtica urens (Small Stinging Nettle), they grow everywhere! The Small Stinging Nettle hurts far worse, and let me tell you, I know a thing or two about it: At age 8, when it was very warm, my classmate decided on the way home from an extracurricular activity that she needed to push me into a cluster of Small Stinging Nettles. I remember my other two classmates pulling me out and me crying in pain for the rest of the way home...my mom was obviously not happy with the other girl when I arrived in tears and covered in welts
the thing thats interesting to me is the part that still has welts it not the part you used that other herb/medicine on, it was pretty quickly clear it wasnt just subduing you psychological experience but also subdued the welts and irritation on the top half of your skin which imo shows it was in fact doing something beyond placebo
Sleeping naked on a stinging nettle "bed" was a natural therapy for sick people in my region in Poland in the past. My grandfather was the last person in my family to experience this when he was young.
Damn that's really interesting/cool nature is supposed to have many healing plants, can I ask did it improve things? The histamine seems to me like it could be really useful
@@DanielAusMV-op9mi hard to say. The only success story that he told me about was his aunt's weakness being healed temporarily by periodically sleeping like that. His case seemed more like "let's try this, maybe it is gonna help".
I mean....I could lay down and roll around on it but I seriously doubt I would get to sleep😂😂😂
Seems Painful, Really painful…
Finally, something I've been stung by (every gardening season) and can relate
"I'm coyote Peterson and welcome to my strange addiction zone."
Brave wilderness has 21 mil subs, cmon people this channel deserves much more, I have been watching every single video sense 8 years ago

I remember watching your videos as a little girl, and you were the whole entire reason I became adventurous. Love coming back to your videos!😁
Don’t tell me I’m the only one who thinks that the part where he chokes up a bug is super relatable
im sure he loves his job
I remember when I was in Ireland in 2017 for college and we took a trip to a famous building in the area we stayed and we are allowed to go out and explore the area for a little bit on our own, and the grass was so tall there a couple people lost their footing and fell into little nettle plants. I did my best not to fall, but one time I did and caught my hand on a nettle plant and that thing hurts so bad it took everything in my body not itch it because I knew it would make it worse and I knew some other people were scratching there’s like crazy and it was only making the pain from their nettles worse for them. luckily it wore off within the hour and I felt much better
They aint even that bad as a child I got stung loads and just forgot about being stung 2 minits afterwards
I remember when I was young in primary school I jumped into a bush full of stinging nettle my entire legs were covered in red bumps didn’t hurt or anything just very itchy until you get dotted leaf and it makes it go away
As a mountain biker who regularly gets whipped with stinging nettles on the legs - younger, early season nettles hurt more and for longer than later nettles that have gone a bit more ‘woody’. Best thing I found is to just ignore it - don’t scratch or touch the spot and it soon wears off.
Idk how it is in elsewhere in the word but this plant is super typical in Germany, I’ve got stung at least 500times by it, probably more, as a kid. it’s just everywhere. And I loved exploring the fields/swomps/ small forests.
But actually you can eat the leaves and make really healthy tea out of them. And they are very good for butterflies the Caterpillars love to go there to pupate. This plant is better than it first seems, pls don’t destroy it if you see it ❤️
I used to harvest and boil nettles as an alternative to cabbage. Younger leaves are better and less fibrous.
I believe it may be a different species? Correct me if I’m wrong though! But we have a “stinging nettle” in Australia thats different also.
@@kaiallison8798 Ours is the Urtica Dioica apparently the thing has spread worldwide, not sure if yours are the same species, probably much differents for sure.
@@kaiallison8798 I’m not a biologist or in anyway an expert, my knowledge is just based on Wikipedia 😅
If I looked for stinging nettle on Wikipedia and switch languages to German it seemed to be the same plant. The one we have in Germany is the “Brennnessel” (Urtica dioica).
But I can imagine that the plants change a bit when they go to different environments. So I’m not sure about if it’s actually 100% the same but I’m pretty certain that it’s atleast a closely related plant.
(Sorry for my grammar, I’m not so confident with my English 🫣)
Exact same in england
Love your vids man keep it up 😊
Yeah they’re really not bad, watching this video with them all up my left arm because I fell into them today lol they’re kinda satisfying to itch, barely any pain.. maybe as a child it is a bit painful but if you stop thinking about it then it’s just a warm feeling.
As a previous outdoorsman camp counselor in Texas, we always had to warn our campers about these plants because they would absolutely ruin your day. However, we used to grab these leaves, put them in our mouths, and chew them up in front of our campers because they actually had to seep into your hair follicles in order to sting you.
No hair follicles (like in your mouth or palm of your hand), no sting.
Something that is both less and so much more painful that I'd expect. Maybe its because its so itchy
Brave Wilderness never disappoints us
As a little kid I once fell into a field of stinging nettles while I was just wearing my swimming pants. Cried a lot
I once fell into a thicket of it with heat exhaustion. I was severely dehydrated and wearing shorts. It was painful, but heat exhaustion/ stroke was worse.
The part where he swallowed a bug had me dead laughing 😭😭
I recently had my first experience with poison Ivy or a similar variant( poison oak or poison sumac). I just barely brushed it out of my way with my hands as I was hiking on a trail next to a creek ( it grows by water). About 4 hours later, my hands started to itch like crazy! Within a couple days I had tons of little blisters that completely covered the tops and fingers of my hands. They looked horrible! And it didn't heal for probably about 6 months. Remember, leaves of three, let it be. Try it out Coyote!
In the balkans, specifically Montenegro where i am from, we usually make stinging nettle "proja" which is like a thin bread that has various plants and cheeses added to it, and the nettle one is the tastiest imo! Also, we make tea, and use it for circulation and some say its good against mosquitoes here
Being from the UK, we have Stinging nettles literally everywhere. We used to push each other into nettle bushes for a laugh. The Dock leaf takes the sting away. I personally enjoy the sting.
That one is not bad at all, in a way its used as natural medicine in Serbia. So some might say its healthy. It pains for 10-15 mins dont scratch it and you are good.
It is very healthy! 😊
Ovo je ova kod nas?
@@nikoladjordjevic2256 ma da, to je ta klasicna zara koja je kod nas
Coyote the OG. Missed that Man.
Also, if harvested safely, if you boil it it will be edible and is highly nutritional. The water that it was boiled in can either be drank as a tea or used to water plants ( highly nutritional for plants as well).
when i was about 9 i jumped over a wall into a field. i caught my shoes as i jumped and ended up on my back in nettles and i was paralyzed in pain. it took me a while to move because i was overwhelmed. i finally managed to crawl out and stagger home. we use vinegar as a remedy here. me and a friends also used to have nettle fights. nettle tea is also a remedy for gout and hay fever!
Hey coyote I love your vids and I am an herbalist, so I know about the stinging nettle and another thing that helps with the stings is yellow dock. Put the leaf on your area that you got stung and it will take the nettles out to of your skin. PLEASE READ THIS COMMENT ❤
Forager here, a plantain poultice will also help!
finally a nettle video
I know right ❤
and also when parboiled these are very healthy to eat, I like to add them in pasta or in bread, basically treat it like spinach after the process, very tasty too
There's plenty of these on my country hid at every corner.. As a kid I used to be so unlucky that I usually got stung by one whenever I went to camping; To the point that now the few times I get stung by one, instead of scream, I literally start to laugh about it.
Dude ran out of bugs to get stung by and lizards to get bit by, the fact that he's continuing his sting analysis on plants really shows how determined Coyote is!
Scotland has stinging nettles but we call them jaggy nettles and they sting and hurt but do get very very itchy. We used dock leaves to reduce the sting and itching. They are good for boiling and eating as they have great properties that are so beneficial to the body
Exact same in england bro
I fell into a ditch of that stuff when I was 6 years old. It's just itchy honestly. I was covered with blisters and I turned out alright.
Antihistamines is the way to go.
This plant makes good tea and nutrients for plants after being soaked.
My great grandma used to whip her back with it to make her bloodflow better. It's really nothing. I can eat the leaves, and to be honest it's just itchy on the skin. I fell into it few times as a child and since it never caused me much pain it was a perfect thing to scare other children with (they were for some reason very afraid of it). I was just pulling out the nettle stem and chased them with it.
It's funny, I'm watching this and it's so high production and the nettles are being handled so carefully but growing up me and my friends used to slap them on each other just for fun😂 by the way I love the videos keep up the good work
Haha, well if you did that for fun you must have had a lot of the plant near by and yellow dock 😅

Man i can't count the amount of times I've been stung by this plant. The worst one was when I fell into a whole bush face first and no t-shirt on trying to get a Frisbee that fell in to it. My mate wasn't strong enough to hold me and he felt so bad and kept apologising all day and on the way back home 😂 but I've been stung so much by it that the pain doesn't really affect me anymore, but the itching man! That's really the worst part off it!
cool! I'm such a big fan
In the uk there r loads of then everywhere especially I'm the spring/summer and I once fell into a massive pile of them and I have stings all over me!!!!!! I used sting cream and Dock leaves helped alot
I am from England and Nettles are everywhere. Awful things when you get caught in them, burning and stinging. We always put a dock leaf on the stings to relieve the sting.
Giant Hogweed!!😮
I agree we have a bunch in ontario and would like to see what to do in emergencies and what damage it does.

Stinging nettles are absolutely everywhere you go here in England. Every single bush has a patch or patches of stinging nettles. I get stung by one almost every day and i’m used to it by now XD
