Harvesting honey in mountain side🐝

apparently this honey from Nepal is worth more because it contains a certain toxin... "Mad Honey" or something.

[u/Specialist-Amoeba496 → u/Thirdarm420]

Yes apparently it can get you high right

[u/somebob → u/Specialist-Amoeba496]

Depends on the dose, I had an eighth of a teaspoon and after about 45 mins I had a light euphoria, pronounced wobbliness, and a shimmery waving sheen on everything.

Pretty similar to a small dose of acid

[u/crashlog → u/somebob]

How long did it last and was there a noticeable comedown?

[u/somebob → u/crashlog]

It lasted about 4 hours I think, I went to sleep as soon as I started feeling normal enough, so I’m not sure how bad the come down is. Had a mild headache when I woke up.

Also the dreams were CRAZY.

Edit to add: the nausea was pretty rough when I first ate it for about 30 minutes

[u/crashlog → u/somebob]

Oof ok. Thanks for the info. Dunno if I‘ll ever get to try it, but now I at least know what to expect.

[u/somebob → u/crashlog]

Sure thing. I didn’t expect to do it, honestly, but my hippy elder neighbor surprised me with one day after I did some demo work on his kitchen. Nice surprise

[u/RoyalCities → u/crashlog]

Just remember it is a neurotoxin. Not really a traditional psychedelic. I wouldn't really suggest a high dose to anyone.

[u/crashlog → u/RoyalCities]

Fair point, thanks.

[u/Wayren → u/somebob]

I tried some from two different distributors. Even tried varying doses. Nothing, every time. Lucky you I guess!

That episode gives me anxiety. Well a lot of things do, but this does too.

[u/ChartPale → u/Thirdarm420]

Greyanotoxins mainly. From Rhododendron pollen.

So what do you do for a living

I yeet bees off a cliff face

[u/latchkeydc → u/DulgUnum]

I felt so offended for the bees 😭

[u/Yuri909 → u/latchkeydc]

They're all absolutely stonked off their stingers no worries

That guy without helmet has some serious guts🫡🫡

[u/DivinityPen → u/YellowTigerSneaks]

Yeah, they must have hit the bees with something to calm 'em down beforehand, right? That's a crazy-ass risk for no discernible reason otherwise.

[u/work_of_shart → u/DivinityPen]

It's not guts, it's stupidity. You can die from bee stings. As for "calming" them. Beekeepers use smokers to make bees lethargic. The CO2 does that, but is no guarantee they'll not attack you when you invade their home.

[u/BearLover999]

This makes me uncomfortable

[u/Beer-astronaut]

The way he’s tossing those bees is just plain rude

[u/Devel93]

Absolutely horrible for the bees especially if you throw the queen away, it's a low chance as the wueen is usually next to the brood but pwopoe don't care, the'll cut every last piece of the hive to get that last drop of honey

[u/YesterdayHiccup]

Favorite ingredients coming out of bugs.

[u/Time_Pressure9519]

Sweet.

[u/Miserable-Law8774]

i heard you go crazy after eating this honey

[u/snekasan]

Something tells me these guys aren’t getting paid what the job is worth

[u/Tiffany_Case]

i honestly didnt know yeet the bees was an option

[u/TrustworthyChaos]

Wait, is this the "mad honey" from Nepal with hallucinogenic properties ? The location of the beehives look similar.

[u/sw1ft87ad3]

How are they helping bees in return?

[u/dubblies → u/sw1ft87ad3]

By not demolishing the dense forest they're living in

[u/roasted-duck-lady]

He wasted so much money while harvesting them ..... I would be so pissed if I were bee. But again, why did we need to eat honey so badly? Leave them alone.

[u/pinniped90 → u/roasted-duck-lady]

Honey tastes good?

Somebody else in this thread says this particular honey gets you baked but no idea if that's actually true.

[u/Super-Investment-780]

He yeets the bees

[u/Sassy_comments]

Here take a hand full of bees!
