Trees and plants are very often found and they develop alongside humans. These trees and plants have many benefits for human life. Among them is to clean the air by converting carbondiosikda into oxygen. In the business field, treewood can be used for property. Meanwhile, if plants, some are consumed by humans from the leaves and stems. But do you know if there are also some trees and plants that can harm humans?
Even they can also threaten a person's life. Not that plants are evil or so, but it is a plant has a function of self-defense that can be considered extreme. For example there are some plants that have poisonous sap. There is also a thorn that can hurt someone's body if exposed to the thorn. It is solely for them to defend themselves. Well, here are 5 trees and the most dangerous plants.
Sandbox Tree
The sandbox tree usually grows in the forests of South America and the Amazon jungle. This tree can stand as high as 27 to 37 meters. The fruit of this tree is very poisonous. Fruit that has a shape like a small pumpkin can cause vomiting, diarrhea and cramps if swallowed. The sap can cause blindness if exposed to the eye.
Namibian Bottle Tree
This tree has a unique shape so called the bottle tree. Behind its unique shape, the sap of this tree is poisonous. The tree sap that grows in the Namibian Desert is often used as a poison placed in arrows. People who are poisoned will experience paralysis to death.
Gympie Gympie
Ever seen the leaf like the picture above? Plants called gympie-gympie can be found in Maluku. The leaves and stems of this plant have fine spines like feathers. If a person just touches it, then the feather or thorn will go into the pores of the person's body. When it is entered, the spines will spread and cause tremendous pain.

This was an interesting post @anumsteemit and I am aware of the dangers that plants hold, however which ones I am not sure, but the suicide tree has amazed me and to think its fruit seed sap and fruit could be fatal if eaten.
And with the fruit looking like a mango that's even more dangerous if someone didn't know. Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work. Here's to your steemit success which I'm sure you will get with posts like this @racykacvy
