Why we Got it Wrong - Fly Agaric 101: The Magical Mushroom (Amanita muscaria)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 чер 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. 😆

Thanks for contributing this voice!
Don't forget to respect the mushrooms, Golden teachers basically, they have some very powerful potential. It can show you what you need to see within yourself and in the world around you, changed my life for good. In the most positive way possible.
Everybody is struggling with mental health and could benefit from careful therapeutic use of substances like these. Wanna try, but keep being told I can't do it alone for the first time.
I do respect and believe in psychedelics as treatment, yet I’m reluctant about using them personally. Not sure about how “good” it may do to someone
dr.martyshroom is your guy. Got all kinds of psychedelics stuff. Guided me through my first ever experience
Since I tired psychedelics for the first time, I’ve been trying to describe the experience to others so there can try it as well, but i couldn’t find the right words to describe it.
I find it funny if there's any psychedelic therapy there online
Psychedelics have the ability to induce profound altered states of consciousness.
True, it helped me in facilitating deep emotional processing and introspection.
Do you know where i can get one? I really need this shit to clear my head.
I got mine from dr.stolly
Is he on Instgram?
Yes, Dr.stolly saved my cousin from bipolar disorder and some addiction. It has a lot of potential benefits.
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.alishrooms. 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!
Nature is incredibly powerful ❤
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👌👁
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
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
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?

The fun of exploring other realms within nature and the mind
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
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.
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

@@LouisPhilip9 tried it never liked it, tired of the fairy tales
Have fun with organ damage bud.

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???
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.
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 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.
I appreciate how you mix science and history with love of nature! Keep up the great videos.
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
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!
And birch
@@corinneskitchen sadly not, a company just started making chocolate bars for it at $40 a bar😭
**eats an Amanita gummie**
Interesting... 🤔
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
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!
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...
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
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
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,
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
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.
😊👍.

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!
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.....👌

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.
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.
I've done them, as well as peyote buttons, Datura root, other mushrooms. ;> Sometimes you must endure the sickness, for the adventure.

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.
Excellent video, you got it all spot on . So glad people are growing an interest in this
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.
@Trippy_psyche1
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 UA-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.

I have had many mushroom trips and they were ALLL wonderful.
.... Quick q, are you a Hodge twin fan?
I came across two of them growing in a person's front yard. Came back at night to harvest them. Dried it out and did the milk trick. And boy was it a fun trip
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.
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 ?

Fascinating mate. I'd rather watch real things like this on UA-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

I got a jar of these on my 21st birthday after me and a family friend came across an entire field of them in the woods in Belfair, Washington which mind you they grow in massive clusters in the woods out there since its rich in moisture and fallen trees. For them to be healthy they have to be completely dried with all the white pores scrapped off. I ended up taking to many the day of my birthday and woke up the next morning not remembering anything to find what I thought to be mud on my window. I had tracks of what I thought was mud all around my room from what it looked like I just walked in circles for hours… to my surprise I crapped myself and walked all around my room and tried to escape even through my window with it all over me lol🥹😂. These mushrooms cause your bowl muscles to loosen so be careful if you take like 8 grams like I did you will be doing the same thing😂
Well I’ve always been curious but I think you did all the learning for me. Thanks, champ 😅
What kind of sound like a crappy experience😂
Decarboxylation is an important process before dosing on aminitas both muscaria or pantherina

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.
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
My Super Mario theory has always been that the worlds he explores are actually much smaller than he is in reality. And when he eats the mushrooms, he gets a glimpse into reality, and all his obstacles are given their true perspective, making it easier for him to navigate life.
Brilliant. I agree
That's fucking stupid
Wow that is very relevant 😮
Sounds like the 3 Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch
This was great, thank you! I love your mushroom videos.
The company, Psyched Wellness is making a tincture with this mushroom that is suppose to alleviate anxiety, and is a great sleep aid. They may be a front runner in the psychadelic race since this mushroom is not illegal in many countries like the US and Canada.
Thanks for sharing!
It's not actually a mushroom. It has a white underside and breathes carbon dioxide (mushrooms have a brown underside/gills and breathe oxygen) which make it a toadstool.
@@raoulduke344 I don't know where to begin correcting you
@@shaquilleobrien5722 I'm not wrong. Google the information and you'll see.
@@raoulduke344 this makes zero sense. Fungi have all different colors of gills. Toadstool is just another name for mushroom/fungi. Amanita is a type of fungi, which does utilize oxygen and not carbon dioxide. Molds often prefer high co2 if that's what you're conflating. May want to re learn the basics of fungi.
I have made tea as described by Amanita Dreamer and I have gotten off SSRI's after 20 years of fitfull dependence.
Amanita dreamer! I've been following her for ages. She's so interesting
Back in the early eighties as teenagers we would go pick what we called " liberty caps" in the parks or even in the graveyards and munch em down. Nice hallucinogenic buzz and no upset stomach. And FREE too 🙂
those are psilocybin like regular magic mushrooms. they're quite potent though. these mushrooms are not psilocybin, and are pretty dangerous.
I found a book when I was younger called Soma the divine tree of immortality, written by R. Gordon Wasson. There were transcripts of a guy that studied the Asian nomads way back in the centuries, and the whole pee drinking thing was detailed. Apparently it was how the lesser privileged were able to participate in the "festivities". It also talked about things like perceiving small cracks as giant chasms, and tiny pools of water as vast seas. Also, interacting with mushroom sprites and sleeping for a very long time afterwards.
That’s a great book!
Fun read
I had a similar experience on Daytura (do NOT bother, it aint worth it) when I was sitting on a stool, looking down at my feet it seemed like a thousand foot drop
@@psycronizer When I was way too much of a explorer myself I took a Datura pod, made a cut with my nail, and smelled deeply... My sight went immediately blind (pure black) for like two seconds, and went back... I decided then it was likely not worth the hassle! Good fun dreaming on muscaria, tho...
@@Virakotxa yeah, well, me and a friend decided we'd eat two flowers each, in a sandwich, which tasted fucking gross, and an hour later we both knew we had fucked up, I left the bar and decided I had to get home, that was a 20 km motorbike ride. I got about halfway and vomited in my helmet while riding, crashed the bike into a fence post by the garage when I finally got home, I was boarding with a family then, and I didn't tell them what was wrong with me, just said I was really tired, spilled a cup of coffee all over the table, apologized and decided to go to bed, at like 2 in the afternoon-saw some truly horrible things as I closed my eyes, in particular a large black man who's face kept coming at me, horrible. We ate the red flowers because a guy told us they were better than the white ones lol, later on he told us about two guys they met down a back road who had done it, and one of them vomited all over his car and then proceeded to pick the flower bits out of the vomit and eat them again !. That car was a pinkish red spray bomb painted Ford Anglia with the roof cut off and a V4 motor held in without engine bolts but number 8 fence wire, the guy who drove was James, James had the unfortunate pleasure of being tied to a clothes line and raped by some freak when he was nine, in class he always rocked backwards and forwards non stop, never knew anything about that until he told us one night while smoking weed and drinking...
You captured some really beautiful shots.
Wow, impressive sceneries paired with amazing infos! Subscribed
Wonderful high-quality material here. I enjoyed watching very much; liked, subscribed. Thank you.
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!
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
Great video. I'm already in love with Amanita Muscaria var. Guessowii.
The information had an amazing presentation.
I've been watching lots of videos about this great shroom. This is the best so far.
No trouble finding Fly Agaric in Latvia's forests (of which there are many). Though I was told by my grandparents at a young age that amanitas are poisonous. Locals never pick them.
Same in Sweden they said you would puke and die of liver failure or dehydration.
If ancient cultures and locals say its poisonous, then its poisonous. I wouldnt go trusting pseudoscientific garbage on youtube.
Well done general introduction to a complex and wide-ranging topic.
SUBCRIBED!! Awesome video and information. I'll definitely be checking out your other videos. That Scandinavian forest was breathtaking!!
Crazy how these form a relationship with nearby trees, but then I find them in parking lot dividers in the middle of nowhere 🤣
Excellent video, so informative. Applied knowledge is power
I have been looking for good measurement tools to assess people's reasons/motivations for using psychedelics but have not had any luck finding validated or reliable measures... does anyone have suggestions or leads? I can't wait to try any of them.
Psilocybin containing mushrooms saved my life. They drastically reduced my benzodiazepine withdrawal allowing me to quit illicit pill addiction after three years of heavy daily use before it would had become medically dangerous to quit.
@@KelvinRosemark
I've always wanted to trip but am so scared it might end up bad.. I've heard a story of how a trip went bad so am so terrified of having one..
@Jeffrey Hart
pls how do I find him?
Is it on IG?
@@Neto37375
There are breathing exercises and meditation techniques you can do before taking psychedelics. Set and Settings are so important meaning your MINDSET and setting where you'll be tripping. The more comfortable and relaxed you are prior the smoother and insightful the experience Will be..
@@Neto37375
They say that even a bad trip can help you to unlock certain hidden parts about yourself and the innermost fears...but once you break pass it you learn from it.( Not speaking from experience)but I used to be scared of that happening too but I think now that I've heard people talking about their experience even a bad trip can be beneficial(maybe obviously everyone is different) good luck!
EXCELLENT CONVERSATION to have indeed. THANK YOU! 🍄
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 remember picking these from a tree we had at my high school and bringing them home. My parents got super pissed and grounded me because they thought I was going to eat them, I didn’t even know they were intoxicating until doing research about them. I just thought that they looked cool.
This is a fantastic video. Quite well done
Thanks great info… looking forward to seeing your other videos on them, we recently bought a little over 100 acre place in Maine that’s literally covered with them along the 20 acre field at the edge of the pines…
Incredible
1:55 I remember when i was a kid we had a museum show that… they had some live deer there and a sign that said something about that those mushrooms are eaten by deer. But then birds that sit on the back of the deer and eat ticks will drink the pee and get blasted 😂
You got to get out to Southeast Asia and do some videos. Such underrated content my mans
Agreed.
I've heard a lot of tripping stories, and they are very exciting,I would love to try magic mushrooms but I can't easily get some, Is there any realiable source I can purchase from??
Yeah, I got mine from bergwilly1
On Insta
I have heard about him. Is he really legit?
@@mirabelwatson7863 came across the comments about bergwilly1 and I must say he is a genius.
Does he ship to Canada?
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.
You my friend just earned another subscriber! Love the channel, thank you for your efforts to enlighten our human family of the ancient peoples world that is so important to guide us in our evolution. 💚
Two years ago there were thousands of these mushrooms in the forest where i live. In some parts it was red head carpet.
No way. Roughly where was that?
@@UntamedScience you do know the first rule of mushroom 🍄 club? Right?
@@UntamedScience It's true! Seen the "red head carpet" myself in S.Africa.
When I accidentally ingested some years ago (honest) it wasn't a trip. It was more speedy, traces, increased heart beat. We walked for hours in middle of night and sat around talking. No visuals except slight traces.
ROB!!!!!!!!! I HAVE SERIOUSLY BEEN WONDERING WHERE YOU HAVE BEEN!!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE ALL OF YOUR WORK!!!
Thanks Chris. I’m still here. Thanks for the comment and finding me again!
Holy crap! The yellow variety grows right outside my house, but my research led to a dead end; no one seemed to have more than "it's not know to kill, but also not know for being "magic". I did, however, dry out 1 massive cap, just in case...
Amanitadreamer has good info on prep if you're curious. We're doing a LIVE session on Monday on my patreon as well talking about all that. :)
Very easy to find in south eastern Australia, in winter, around pine trees… nice to look at…
What l like about this mushroom 🍄 is even while you vomit you still feel well, unlike alcohol.
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
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.
Bay of fundy baby
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.
Been there n done that..it opened my 3rd eye.a mind blowing psychedelic experience I wouldn't of wanted2 miss out on.....but I wouldn't take any these days..too crazy times.
This was incredible & educational video!
Thank. You man!!!
I’ve been eating them and serving to my family for years. We all always sleep so well!
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 😁
Superb footage and video 🙏👌🏻
Cool video 🍄 Thanks for sharing, StoneAgeMan! I see these when hiking the Oregon Coast . . . they often have a little nibble taken out of them 🐌
Check out 🍄

I can't find a source anywhere for any good psychedelics in my area?
Who has a legit dealer?
Mushroom completely turned my life around and my anxiety and panic attack disappeared and my personality changed into a much more generous loving person
I had 3.5 grams dried lemon tek most beautiful experience ever!!
Hey I'll refer you to this dude online who guided me through my first ever experience,he got all kinds of psychedelic stuffs and he also ship discreetly to any location*
terry_trips11
Yep, a small group of friends and I took some of these about 30 odd years ago, very relaxing. We used to go mushroom picking often during the autumn, the little “witches hat” ones were our go to preference and we’d boil up many hundreds in a big pan and be absolutely spaced out for hours on end…….good times 😀
Lol, same era same good times
Let's unlock that pituitary gland.
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 ❤️❤️❤️
I found a huge one today at the place i was working. I took pictures and notes of and found in my book when i got home.
Leonmycology!
The actual origin of Santa Claus… Red and white, Grows in close relationships with fir trees and reindeer… brings you gifts… knows how to do Magic… And if you live right it will show you some of the incredible secrets of the Universe! But if you’re ‘naughty’ get ready to be ‘punished’ with a difficult trip.
Red and white only became the colours of santa after coca cola got into it. Traditionally his garb was green or tan
And moderation is the key !!!
