Why we Got it Wrong - Fly Agaric 101: The Magical Mushroom (Amanita muscaria)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 มิ.ย. 2024
- This is the Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) - aka the mushroom from Super Mario Brothers. It's famous, yet I think the general consensus is that you should never ever eat it. That's probably the safest thing to do, but did you know that it was used for thousands of years by our ancestors?

Back in 1976/77 - I researched Amanita Muscaria as part of a book report on magic mushrooms for my grade 11 English class, for which I received a B+. At that time it was believed safer to consume if all the white warts were removed first. I consumed two large caps and after a few hours of no recognizable effects, went to bed, only to wake up the next morning with the memory of having the most vivid and enlightening dreams... Psilocybin on the other hand was at times an 8 hour high and could be a scary adventure for the timid, on the other hand, an incredibly insightful journey to getting to know one's self, inside and out. I was young and reckless and still walked away with some useful insight. Corporate society does not want brave, pioneering, adventuresome, healthy citizens - they want citizens that depend on pharmaceuticals and anything else they can sell you to convince you everything is good as long as you play by their rules...
Couldn’t have said it better my man, well said I completely agree!
Class of '78! Me too!
We were "reckless" at times, and I did suffer one very bad trip when another high friend snuck past our 2 sobers and spiked our drinks with some acid. They found 14, mostly desolved, mesc tabs in my drink. I had drank mine down with a swirl, it was rum & coke. Everyone else had 2 - 4 in theirs. All I could think was, "oh, this may be fun."
About an hour later, while watching some waves crash against a wall, I kinda got swept up into their crashing pattern, and slammed myself backwards into one of the trailers that we all had rented for the weekend. Then I continued to do it until they tackled me. They forgot the "Only sobers help." Because sometimes you're not helping when you think that you are. I spent the next few hours in the dark, mostly, sinking into the bed they put me in, before I could continue the party. I think it changed my brain for the better. I could grasp ideas faster. Turn ideas into physical things. Machines, Art, and Stories is where I excelled in my life. After the Navy, I was an engineering mgr. for a major tire & rubber maker for 30 yrs. I made a lot of money with my "different" mind.
Now, I'm retired and get to focus on tinkering, creating, and teaching my 12 grandchildren.
I do teach them to avoid these for now, but I do teach them to is the ones that we find in my woods and elsewhere.
I was a Scout Master for the boy Scouts, before they lost their minds. I was never religious, and it started to become a thing that I was judged for. 30+ years later and half of those boys have families and visit me regularly. Some, as much as my children.
They are here to help my son or I with anything that I may need done. All but one left the scouts when I did, he's parents were the cub leaders.
I taught those kids a lot about nature. The respect that they have still shows to this day.
Well, that train took a different track. 😆

@@perplexedpapa Dope story!
Thanks for contributing this voice!
Psilocybin containing mushroom saved my life honestly from Alcohol addiction and severe depression. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
YES very sure of Dr.benfungi. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
Mushrooms are very medicinal. This is why anybody familiar with psilocybin and any other kind of fungi will tell you, "They are alive." They have a very ancient wisdom. To my experience, all mushrooms have always said, "Pay attention to your life. How you think, how you feel, and what will you do with the information that you always knew, but now are seeing in this point of view." This is why mushrooms are so respected in tribal cultures. This mental health treatment works for me too. Half micro doses do the trick for me. At least a few days at a time with lengthy time in between. Never addictive. Thank you for sharing this point!
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
Psilocybin mushrooms have augmented my feeling of what life is really all about, changed my perspective of living to a whole different level, seeing the beauty of nature in its abundance whilst also making me aware of what surrounds me and it's importance.
I've been looking to try some recently but I can't find anywhere to get them, anyone?

Is on Instgram?
yesss dr.cotler#
The fun of exploring other realms within nature and the mind
I've tried amanita tincture before bed. The effects were a subtle euphoria almost like being drunk. Then I fell into the deepest sleep of my life and had the most insane out of this world dreams I've ever experienced. I don't know how to describe them except they felt alien. I had a really hard time waking up. I remember it was like my consciousness was hovering over me and watching my body as it slept and I had to force myself back in to wake up. Really weird experience but not unpleasant it works as a sleep aid.
Great story, but no follow-up? Did you ever use it again? Etc etc etc
How much did you take ?)
Bitch that sound scary asf 😂
Sounds like just another bad lucid dream to me. Which is already random but common enough to be meh. What’s the worst that could happen ahha.
And I always thought I lost use of my legs and pissed myself now I'm thinking i was sleeping
These were the first mushrooms that I tried. I ate 4 grams of them with orange juice. My friends and I ate them in the morning. I spent the entire day swimming through a black void. I saw neon shapes in the void that called out to me. When I swam through the shapes, I would hear philosophic teachings and what felt like really, old wisdom. It was incredibly peaceful.
I came to, to realize that I had my face buried in the couch for the last 16 hours.
This is great lmao
4 grams the first time.. I guess if your gonng go, go big
Bro, keep away from the orange juice
@@SpaceRanger187that’s crazy but I want to do 3 lol
Where they just dried and then digested
My grandmother passed on the areas in the woods where mushrooms grow to my mom who passed them on to us....my brother still remembered them and picked tons of EDIBLE mushrooms. Born and raised in Germany, many very delicious mushrooms grow there.
I am from Poland and we do pick a lot of mushrooms too. Watching this made me understand why the mushrooms are cooked first and then marinated in vinegar with spices and onion. To convert bad chemicals, interesting.
I collect and dry amanita. I have a lot of amanita at low prices. if you need amanita, contact me. I supply for several stores in the US and Canada
My mother cooks them
I did amanita about a month ago. I'm in Australia, it's an introduced species. They were popping up early in the pines. I did the drying and lemon technique and enjoyed with a friend in the Autumn sunshine. It was so calming and comforting. Would recommend.
More vagueness…..no mention of dosage…. Vague vague vague
@@Zepster77 Dumbed down sheeple want to be spoon fed everything because they have no wisdom critical thinking skills or common sense !
@@LouisPhilip9 tried it never liked it, tired of the fairy tales
Have fun with organ damage bud.
What's the lemon technique
Depression haunted my life from a very young age, and I was put on a bunch of SSRIs as a child in attempt to deal with it. None worked.Psychedelic mushrooms was brought to my attention. It was the first thing that actually had real effects. They should only be used with great care and respect.
I hear this is supposed to be good for people who have mental health issues. I actually just started the research process of microdosing and all that. Im to the point where I want shock treatment.
dr.perryshroom is your guy. Got all kinds of psychedelics stuff. Guided me through my first ever experience
Been through this conversation before. I can’t do anything without a proper medical professional following me.
Okay um, any professional on Insta?
YES, he is dr.perryshroom. There's a lot of potential in psychedelics
This is how Santa's reindeer fly!
@ Finn Macky- the magic dust man. They flew all the way around the world man!!
Same
Rudolph. The red nosed reindeer
That story theory isn't proven true it was speculated by some guy that also claimed the entire catholic religion was centered on A.muscaria.
@@daftnord4957 Yes. This explains a lot. Now we know why Rudolph's nose is red.
When a society is based on fear, a lot of knowledge that should’ve been passed down gets skewed or lost completely.
Knowledge not lost but occulted so only " chosen ones" can know it and control the rest of population.
@@Magic-hi3tq are you disagreeing?
Like the false premise of weed being a bad drug.
You are so correct my friend
@@fallingdownthestairsallday6008 you point out pertinent facts👌👁
I appreciate how you mix science and history with love of nature! Keep up the great videos.
There's a decent argument that many elements of our Christmas customs were based on this mushroom - the colors, and that they used to be put in a stocking and hung over the fireplace as a way to dry them out faster, just to name a couple things..
not really, christmas in its current version like you are describing is very recent
@@Ossian-dr1vr Its identical to north European Christmas traditions.
@@ReasonAboveEverything stockings over the fire place it not very common i northern european christmas tradition as far as I know. And i'm pretty sure that the current iteration of santa claus with the red colour simply comes from a coca cola commerstial.
@@Ossian-dr1vr instead of just saying not really and trying to shut the op down why don't you first research what you think you disagree with? It's amazing how people believe they have a strong enough opinion to tell somebody else they're wrong about something they themselves have no or limited knowledge on
www.fs.usda.gov/wildflowers/ethnobotany/Mind_and_Spirit/flyagaric.shtml
Christmas comes from pagans. Santa Claus is just an anti-christ symbol because it's pagan vs Christianity. Giving people gifts, hiding his identity, his name is similar to Satan, rides a sleigh (sounds like slay), makes others work for him. The dude was designed to appear evil. But people don't think he's evil anymore I guess due to the rise of capitalism which makes people love gifts.
I highly doubt any of this has anything to do with Magic mushrooms
I am a natural born Alaskan and spent my first 11 years in my birthplace, Juneau, when we were still a territory. My Dad often took us schrooming and always for the great Shaggy Mane. As a wanderer, I was always in the woods exploring. One time while riding my bike, I saw thru some thicket a most Perfect Amanita I had ever come across. It was huge and beautiful and untouched by bugs yet. I couldn't stop myself as I plunged my skinny kid fingers into the very center of the cap and pulled out a pinky nail sized piece. I ate it. Me and my bike flew. Wasn't far, but we flew over that thick mass of sticks and twigs that made up that thicket. A place I couldn't ride my bike thru. Fast forward to now, and at age 68 I still remember and can recreate that wonderous flight in my head. I KNEW then and I KNOW now, I flew on my bike.
That’s a know amazing story
Yeah you were flying High🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice story man
Your story cracked me up, thanks 😊
My friend. I’m 51. Me and my twin brother both have memories at the age of around 4 or 5. We could float down the house stairs. We would jump and float to the bottom. Was lovely and strange we talk about it now and again. We were free of everything at that age. We are a lot stronger than we know we are my friend. Some thing is stopping the strong human 🙏
A couple years ago I tried amanita and it was an unbelievable experience. I felt extremely high levels of energy as never before. I read that North American Indians used them in the winter to receive their energy and were able to walk in the deep snow during long distance thanks to the amanitas.
In Russia when they was walked from village to village they took Amanita and u never tired not only psychically but even mentally, they called it a teleport.
How did you take it?
@@barbarabaumgartner1972 You should cut the fresh Amanita and cover it in sugar. Stir it up every day. The sugar will become syrup after a few weeks. You can consume the syrup.
yeah, you can take metamphetamin, but this is cheaper.
@@Taudlitz do you mean methamphetamine???
Excellent video, you got it all spot on . So glad people are growing an interest in this
Absolutely fascinating topic! Thanks so much for sharing 🍄
Fantastic video!! Thank you for taking the time to share this with the world. Education is the light that will bring us out of the darkness of fear and misunderstanding natures gifts.
Well said. Also, thank you!
I lived in the northwest in the early 80's for awhile and camped in the Wenatchee Forest on the moist ground during mushroom season, I would wake up early in the morning as the sun was barely peeking, amanita's would push through the soil like zombies hands, it was amazing. Elk and deer would gather and eat them, just being in the middle of this experience was like a hallucinogenic trip yet I never was high on drugs just the experience that I was experiencing seemed like a dream.
If you did alcohol or coffee that's drugs just normalized
@@StarPowder777 Yeah I didn't use any of that, I was full of piss n vinager as we use to say, no stimulant needed.
I felt that story great connection to life.
Wow, impressive sceneries paired with amazing infos! Subscribed
Great video. I'm already in love with Amanita Muscaria var. Guessowii.
The information had an amazing presentation.
As a new student of Horticulture and Greenhouse Operations, the hardest thing for me is memorization and remembering names and facts about fungi and plants. This video has been entertaining and easy to understand. Great job!
Yeah im trying to as well, sooo many! But amanita is one I'm starting to get the hang of
@@jwoz8517 heck yeah. Super interesting in terms of fungi. I'm not really into mycology but this one caught my interest
Thank you for your hard work. Your content is soothing and informative.
SUBCRIBED!! Awesome video and information. I'll definitely be checking out your other videos. That Scandinavian forest was breathtaking!!
In New Zealand as a child my Dad knew how to find huge Horse Mushrooms.
He told me they grew around the roots of a native pine trees.
I just remembered this from your interesting article.
I heard in Rotovegas In the Redwood Forest...there grows magic mushrooms..they say 🍄
i would love to see more videos about magic mushroom!! you are great content maker, thank you.
Wow… so interesting, this cleared up a lot of misconceptions which I was told indeed. Great video once again.
What misconception did you have?
@@UntamedScience well, the biggest being, that they are absolutely inedible and poison you.
You captured some really beautiful shots.
These mushies grow outside my house in suburbia (Melbourne Australia).
Not every year though!
I'd get one or three of them some years, other years there wouldn't be any, like this year. Last year however we had a bumper fairy circle of 13! It's our birch tree that they are in partnership with 🥰
Thank you for this informative video - I may actually harvest them when they next sprout!
Note to self , plant birch. Lots of Birch
This was great, thank you! I love your mushroom videos.
Wonderful high-quality material here. I enjoyed watching very much; liked, subscribed. Thank you.
I've got a pine forest in Australia, and it has Fly Agaric. Which is interesting as it's not native to these shores. Apparently it's been unintentionally introduced as a symbiont. But like many, I was raised to just never eat wild fungus, and particularly to avoid "the colourful ones". Which my forest is full of. I have friends who can confidently identify "safe" field mushrooms. But I'm just not into the flavor enough to pursue that knowledge. And my MM experimentation as a young bloke wasn't great. So for me, they're just pretty additions to the forest floor, that I take photos of and occasionally give a little gentle tap to ensure spore dispersal before some passing wallaby squishes it.
Coming from an Indigenous background (Navaho) we have known for centuries of the healing properties of various natural plants including mushrooms, saliva, peyote, auhayesca to name a few. However the dominate society tended to dismiss our ceremonies that used these natural remedies as superstition and satanic rituals of a primitive non Christian heathens.
Modern science is only now uncovering how these Indigenous medicinal plants can cure a variety of illnesses both physical, emotional and spiritually.
I grew up attending ceremonies of the Native American Church or peyote way. It has enhanced my life and helped me cope with the evils of modern day life. People around the world are now just now beginning to understand the powerful healing ways of what we called grandmother or grandfather healing plants that our people have known for centuries.
with all the rain the last half of the season, I had the biggest growth of them yet and each grouping was totally different than the previous grouping, some were more yellow with red centers, some were very orange and huge and some very red in my old growth forest in central Ontario, Canada,
In terms of ID, I’d also mention the related A. pantherina and A. pantherinoides. Both are sometimes confused with muscaria, and while neither contain amatoxins, they have a lot more ibotenic acid and especially when eaten raw can mess you up quite a bit more than muscaria.
Very true. I hope people don't start eating them without knowing at least how to identify the mushroom first. I'll make sure the mention that in the next one and emphasize more the importance of identification.
@@UntamedScience You already make clear that just because it won’t have you shopping for a new liver, people shouldn’t just randomly consume them. I only mention it because I had an old housemate who gobbled down some pantherina thinking he was going to “get blasted” on muscaria. He was fine, but it wasn’t pretty. 😬
Maybe that's what happened to me because I got the ones I ate from someone else. Not a fun experience.
The panther types are brown or dark tan. I think ibotenic acid becomes muscimol in the stomach (30 years old memory of research).
Other posts here say the very similar looking panther caps will destroy your liver etc...so BE VERY CAREFUL who and what you believe
This was really nice; the common story I heard (I’m Swedish) is that it attracts flies and is toxic. Very interesting to learn the other side
Awesome Vid man, entertaining and informative. Keep up the good work.
@@MecurryMercury interesting, I haven't tried any online ordering yet. Hard to trust an hour online store I haven't heard about from someone else who enjoyed the goods it "Actually" delivered on. I would love to hear more if you don't mind indulging for me brother.
Excellent video, so informative. Applied knowledge is power
Hi. Fly agaric is very popular in Russia now. Every city has mushroomers, sellers and a consumer community. During the season there are festivals. I met this mushroom in 2018
In those temps it will become illegal soon.. big pharma never sleeps
I've tried just about every drug possible. But the Amanita, i never touched because we were told it was toxic, destroying your liver and kidneys toxic. But now, we know it can be consumed safely, like our Norwegian ancestors apparently did!
@@grimfpv292 same with the Slavic culture.
Funny fact that cocaine and heroin 60 years ago was considered as a medicine, but fly agaric is poison *facepalm*
@@grimfpv292 i have also tried almost every drug, except the hardest ones. Amanita is my favorite, its the one that helped me to find what i was looking when i was looking into drugs. Currently im not using anything, maybe some amanita microdosing like few weeks in a year.
@@AlexDhyan because amanita made you to stop using shit, and helped you to find other answers for your life! Yes!

Loved this. So interesting. Never realised there was so much information around just a mushroom! Also never he was rs fungi pronounced the way you do! 🙂
I've been watching lots of videos about this great shroom. This is the best so far.
This is a fantastic video. Quite well done
Well done general introduction to a complex and wide-ranging topic.
There's a very small forest area in the UK where i used to live, maybe 40 trees, i walked through once and it was filled with 100's and 100's of these at all different sizes and colour intensities, it was so magical! I didn't know they grew in groups like that.
They're called Fairy rings.:)
Where is that forest? I live near Windsor 🙂
Location of forest please?!?
@Ibérico Ser de la Naturaleza in English please?..
Great Coomly wood. Isle of Wight. Far south bit nearest Robin Hill. Hundreds. I filled a back pack. Or could of it was legal...
It reminds me of my childhood, when I was with my grandma and my cousins I'm looking for mushrooms in the forest.
Of course, I disappeared in the coniferous forest now and then in the undergrowth, because this dense undergrowth and the soft ground of dried pine needles seemed your round other world.
Especially because the space was limited, you could move well there as a child, you adult but not.
There I also noticed for the first time Amanita Muscari and I wondered why they always grow in the same environment, that is, in the undergrowth.
The video is me again a little in the time moved, especially since this has awakened my interest in psychedelic fungi and plants.
Thumbs up!
This was incredible & educational video!
Thank. You man!!!
EXCELLENT CONVERSATION to have indeed. THANK YOU! 🍄
About 5 years ago i chopped and then dried a load of these in a warm oven for about a hour or more. Nice and slow. I then had them in a mushroom tea/soup. It tasted o.k. I gave me a chilled out buzz and I did go to sleep on them. I had a few interesting dream but nothing too wild. I tried to get the dose right several times. My best advice is the bigger you are the more you take. Now I've seen this upload I'm off on a little walk tomorrow for some pickings.....👌
Eat 3 big ones fresh it's what I do ,Clive youca bad belly but bumba third eye unlocked
@@christianworton2915 eat em fresh they r poisonous

Funny I ate a ton and FELT NOTHING you must be a boyscout. I really don't understand all these people reporting minor psilocybin effects. I felt zilch. The headshops shouldn't be allowed to sell it it's a absolute sham. I've tripped off psilocybin this mushroom did nothing. As much of a joke as morning glory LSA is.
Psychedelics and psilocybin in general are just amazing with so many health benefits. Psilocybin treatment actually saved me from mental health issues. I've also noticed clearer thinking and improved creativity. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
Superb footage and video 🙏👌🏻
superb vid! kudos mate 👏
Can’t believe I just stumbled across one of these special little mushrooms while camping, I had no idea what it was I just admired it and left it where it grew

Incredible
Amanita dreamer is fantastic! You guys made a beautiful video here thank you!
Best video and content for this magical mushroom thanks!
Unlike Psilocybe cubensis, A. muscaria cannot be commercially cultivated, due to its mycorrhizal relationship with the roots of pine trees.
Pine bonsai?
Safe from capitalism!

Psilocybin containing mushrooms save my life. The drastically reduced my benzodiazepine withdrawal allowing me to quite illicit pill addiction after three years of heavy daily use before it would had became medically dangerous to quit
I'm glad myco.spore is mentioned... I've been having situational depression for about 4 yrs plus now but I had to hit him up last week and he really gave me some of his product..they work like magic.

Yes,he's Myco.spore.
When you've experienced psilocybin,the visions,the feeling that others feel become relatable and real,but when you haven't they could sound weird
@daviswilliams7501 sure,he ships anywhere and discreetly... that's if you are worried about that.
Wow, I thoroughly enjoyed this knowledgeable video. And too funny you referenced the trolls in the forest. Not long ago I watched that troll hunter movie. Awesome movie. But thanks for this fun video, Be safe .
I love your videos, I am learning so much. Thank you⚘️
I have about a dozen different books on mushrooms.
(Nothing like having a second or third opinion when identifying edible mushrooms.)
Some years ago, I did a 21,000 motorcycle tour of the USA, and during that tour, I met two nice ladies, who invited me to stay in their homes.
They both had the same book on mushrooms. Amazing coincidence. I recorded the name and bought the book!
At one ladies place, in West Virginia, we went for an evening walk, and I saw my first and only luminous mushrooms!
I'm now living in a ''Parc Naturel'' in France, and when I first took up residence, I used to find loads of edible mushrooms, but, they have diminished gradually to almost zero.
There's a local woman who strips the woodland of every edible mushroom she can find, and then sells them.
Greedy B-east!
However, there are still plenty of Fly Agaric, as she cannot sell those. So, the next promised program will be very interesting.
😊👍.

Im from New Zealand & every year rite around my birthday they spore. Always under pine or birch trees just like i learned in this video. They,ve always held a great deal of interest to me. Ive learned more about them from this video than ive known before. Great education thanks.
Well I'm from New Zealand too dontcha know 😁
wow i always loved how fast mushrooms appear i like to go hiking and biking alot and love going after it rains breathing the fresh air and seeing al of the color mushrooms that grow
Okay but can we appreciate the quality, angles, lighting, and dedication put into filming this video. The details are IMMACULATE 👌🏼
Fascinating mate. I'd rather watch real things like this on TH-cam than the brain deadening garbage on TV thanks guys.
100%, what I find so sad is that if you go to the explore page and these are the top videos been watched ..its all crap, all of it...the sad part is that people are watching these videos by the millions...clearly a very large difference in people, those who want to feed on garbage and those who want to feed on knowledge.
@@bobrobertsNotUrBobit is a big difference. And that big difference is why democracy sucks. All the dumb garbage consumers get to vote and make decisions and essentially control the free-thinking intelligent people. They say nothing is better than democracy. Lol such propaganda
Just wait until all the smart people are dead for various reasons all because of democracy
Amazing video! This sums up everything you need to know about the Amanita in under 10 minutes. It took me months of research to gather all of this information.
Nice work!!

They're EVERYWHERE in NB Canada! The leopard amanitas as well. Keep meaning to try them but haven't gotten around to it yet. Was a phenominal year for chanterelles.

Yum - a plateful of chanterelles. It's been a while since I've had some. Young giant puffball is good - so is chicken of the woods.
We give synthetic ISOXAZOLE derivatives to pets for flea and tick control in the form of Bravecto and Nexgard tablets. They are some of the best (100% parasite kill rate) agents for this task. No wonder they used the natural ones to kill flies.

I love nature and this video gives me a taste of it even when I do not have the time to go out by myself ❤️❤️❤️
awesome vid man
as a kid i was brought up being told that they are incredibly poisonous and will kill you if they are eaten, thanks for expanding my knowledge :) also can i get info on doses and the effects each level of doses bring?
Might be hard on TH-cam. Amanita dreamer has that stuff though.
Start with one dried cap and go up from there.
It does nothing. I've eaten more than the recommended amount. Don't listen to all the over dramatic boy scouts.
@@alexandervalaris72 - do you happen to use cannabis? If so you won’t get the same effect.
@@alexandervalaris72 you either don't know what you ate, or you're lying.
You got to get out to Southeast Asia and do some videos. Such underrated content my mans
Agreed.
Doing great work! Thank you
I adore the premise of this channel :-)
God i fucken *love* fly agaric, theyre my favorite mushroom by far, as well as my favorite living thing, ever. Very very very few things make me as happy as sighting an adorable little fly agaric in the wild, I spend entire days just searching for the things.
Same and its sooo nice when you find them after a Long walk
Absolutely. This past summer I was walking in a pine/spruce forest along a lake and came across this bright yellow neon amanita (I think it was a fly agaric, but it was much more yellow than other ones I've found which were more orange) and I sat there and danced and sang it a song. It was such a beautiful mushroom. So big and bright, they practically put flowers to shame with their large colorful caps. Felt like finding buried treasure.
How do you take it ?
@@nelliesfarm8473 chicken mushroom soup. ✌️ You can leave the chicken out, due to the volume you have to consume... It's a meal! But garlic and chives are my mains for ANY mushroom. Whatever you're preference.
I learn something new everytime I watch and listen to you. Thank you , from the rain forest of British Columbia .
Nature at its best
Hmmmm
I took a heroic dose of these a few years back. It was heady like being drunk till I lost motor skills and had involuntary twitches that I felt pulse thru me, but couldn't tell where in my body it would erupt. One time trying to walk, both knees folded mid air and I crashed down on my kneecaps. I dropped a tissue and the message couldn't reach my hand to pick it up so I stared for 10 minutes unable to complete the function, I was stuck bent halfway. The most intense part was where the ego fought for supremacy; I'm told my face was fixed in a look of horror as I clung to a fence. Coming down though I had the most intense feeling of having contacted something deep and fundamental and it was a sad experience to be moving away from it and returning to reality. Next day I woke up worried I'd lost all abilities and would have to relearn how to put on a pair of socks and tie my shoelaces again. I had no nausea or physical discomfort and drank some alcohol with them, but mostly water. From ingestion to comedown it lasted around 5 or 6 hours. They have more heft than liberty caps, maybe the difference between a queen and a goddess.
I've heard so many wonderful things about magic mushrooms but I can't easily get some, Is there any realiable source I can purchase from??
I'm so interested in the experience but am terrified of having a bad trip
I did two grams last time, it was a thrilling experience and I enjoyed it
( doctor_ spores). jason
Got psych's*
This whole thing is pretty new to me, can I try 3grams?
@@johnkeleher5563 where to search? Is it IG ??
Very easy to find in south eastern Australia, in winter, around pine trees… nice to look at…
In addition to mushrooms giving nutrients to the plant, they also absorb any heavy metals or other toxins before the tree does, acting like a filter for the tree. And fungi also give off co2 from respiration with oxygen like us, which trees of course use to respirate and give off oxygen in turn. A mutually beneficial cycle
Thank you for this video
I'm trying not to cry from happiness. Magic Mushrooms have taken away my pain. I faced death time and time again by my own mind and hand. In desperation, I overcame my fear and the social stigma and the laws, and committed a crime. It stopped the agony. We're talking decades long agony. I joined the army just so I could die a hero and not have to make my family suffer the consequences if I committed suicide. Mushrooms gave me back my life. Thank you nature.
Screw big pharma. sorry i'm a punk, an old punk.
@Andre IGNORE ALL MUSHROOM SPAM! 100% A SCAM!
I have eaten it and it opened my third eye.
I thought we only have 2 eyes
That truly is a beautiful Xmas story
I'd appreciate your comment!

Your spot on about fear of mushrooms. The only thing I will pick are the giant puffballs that end up growing in the cow pasture.
There was a story in the 1970s about mama mastroni who ended up poisoning her whole family after picking mushrooms and using a silver coin to determine if they were poisonous. They were. From that point on, I tend to be cautious when it comes to foraging food.
I wish there were more people to show us how to do it. I love me some mushrooms, the eating kind at least
I've done them, as well as peyote buttons, Datura root, other mushrooms. ;> Sometimes you must endure the sickness, for the adventure.

I just moved to the pac west area. And I'm looking forward to learning more about fungi and incorporating them into daily living. Also I subbed👍

This was great thank you for this
These mushrooms are everywhere around where I used to live in Australia. They grow in the streets,parks, school yards n pine Forrests . Never tried them thinking they were extremely dangerous.
Well, now you definitely know better, don't you? :-)
Growing all of my products organically, I've learned throughout the years that fungi are very important to the entire planet.
1982 not far west of Mt. Evans in Colorado. Found amanitas and the stems of most were riddled with burrowing maggots. Fly agaric is a nursery for flies.
I have the amanita muscara all over my mixed hardwood/pine forest in NC. I’ve always been afraid of it but I might give a tiny bit a try. I forage for edible and medicinal mushrooms but have never taken psychedelics of any kind.
I found out about it from a great grand father, I have a bit of a viking heritage and its considered Odins (Wodan's) mushroom. I got told the whole "christmas" story about it when i was about 12, how the coke a cola company stole the likeness (originally santa was in green, not red and white) and re branded him. How the red caps were dried in ever green trees (xmas tree decorations) and that the original celebration was basically a 3 or more day bender for the whole village in winter time. - the true story of xmas, a religious holiday stolen by another religion basically. So first time I tried them, I found a grove, I basically "felt" them in that direction, and harvested and ate raw, swallowing whole the small ones with water. Took about an hour they kicked in, I couldn't actually talk for about half a day, my voice just stopped working. My friend ran the car off the road into a ditch, and here is where things get weird. I actually managed to push the vehicle (which the driver was pretty sure we were going to need a tow to get out of the ditch ) out. At the time i was feeling overly strong - and I suspect this is the "Bazerker effect" I heard about afterwards that some people have spoken about. next day I ached all over like i had done a massive gym work out. I haven't had them for many years (mostly because I haven't found any) but I do know they are around locally. I am going to have to go for a walk come the next season and see if i can find some.
Awesome story! please be careful though. They can be fatal when eaten raw. Even dried isn't optimal, it destroys a great deal of the ibotenic acid and barely increases the muscimol. There's a technique to simmer raw at about 2.7ph(citric acid powder correctly calculated/measured) for 2.5 hours to convert all of the ibotenic acid into muscimol. 10 times stronger then dried and zero nausea, brain, or liver damage.
