Contact with the leaves or twigs causes the hollow, silica-tipped hairs to penetrate the skin. The hairs cause an extremely painful stinging sensation that can last anywhere from days to years, and the injured area becomes covered with small, red spots joining together to form a red, swollen welt. The sting is infamously agonizing. Ernie Rider, who was slapped in the face and torso with the foliage in 1963, said "For two or three days the pain was almost unbearable; I couldn’t work or sleep, then it was pretty bad pain for another fortnight or so. The stinging persisted for two years and recurred every time I had a cold shower. ... There's nothing to rival it; it's ten times worse than anything else."

Supposedly a British soldier did once, not realizing what it was. Shortly afterward, he shot himself in the head.

The fruit is edible if the stinging hairs that cover it are removed.

Imagine all the people that died or got sick from experimenting with plants so that future generations know which plants and fruits are safe to eat.

Probably less than the amount of children slaughtered and massacred during wartimes and colonialism tbh.

Serious. This sounds like the most horrible pain you can experience, and the fact that it can last for years? Think about that.
