While the visceral demonstration provides a memorable lesson in entomology, the sensationalist framing risks reducing complex evolutionary biology to a mere spectacle of human suffering. It effectively captures public attention but prioritizes "stunt science" over deep ecological discourse.

STUNG BY FURRY PUSS CATERPILLAR - For Tribal Girl's LoveAjouté :
Deep in the Amazon, there's a caterpillar so painful, they call it the fire puss caterpillar. One stink can feel like your skin is literally on fire, I'm going to let it sting me on purpose. And the locals warned me not to touch it. They said the pain gets worse every single second and lasts for days.
By the end of this video, you're going to see exactly what this thing does to the human body and whether the stories about it are actually true. And you're going to see her rub caterpillar poop on my arm. Let's do it.
See, she was way over there and she's like, "Come, look, look what I found.
Look what I found. Look what I found."
And then I I came running over here and uh sure enough, she found, drum roll, please.
The fire puss caterpillar. How do I know this is the fire puss caterpillar? It's because Coyote Peterson, my boy, he found this also in the Amazon jungle, but he was too scared to be in the absolute pain ever in the entire world for 12 hours straight. I got hung seven times with a bullet here. So, I think uh I'm strong enough to handle this little caterpillar.
>> See, it's called the fire puss caterpillar. I think the real name, there's been many nicknames. It really is like the flannel caterpillar. I'm not too sure why it's called that, but we're gonna get more into that.
No, it's not.
This tiny creature might not look dangerous, but here in the Amazon rainforest, people know to never touch it. This is the fire puss caterpillar, also known as the flannel moth. And those soft hairs aren't actually fur.
Hidden underneath are venomous spines designed to inject toxins straight into your skin the moment you make contact.
People describe the pain as burning electricity. And what makes it even scarier is how harmless it looks. These caterpillars are found throughout tropical rainforests, and because they blend in so well, people sometimes brush against them without ever realizing it until the pain hits. And just for fun, here's a little bonus clip of us making the thumbnails and them thinking I'm ridiculous.
>> Yeah, we're doing that thumbnail right now.
I own YouTuber.
foreign.
All right, now we got to find a spot where to get stung by this thing.
>> This right here is my little bench that we're doing it on. It's basically just a wood plank with >> two two rocks. So, uh, let's get stung by this thing.
Hold on. Hold on. Wait. Hold on.
Okay. Yav.
I said that I can't put this in the video because it actually doesn't hurt.
But is that No, it's starting to come in. The bullet ant that I got stung by.
That was instant pain. This is not instant pain. After maybe like a few minutes.
After maybe like a few minutes, that's when it starts to hurt. Right now, it's literally only getting worse. This is the aftermath right here.
Oh, dude. No, it's starting to No, it's starting to sting so bad. No, I want to see D >> at the beginning. It doesn't I can't even speak right now.
OH MY GOD. This is I'm just going to update you. Okay. No, it is getting pretty bad right now. It's getting pretty bad. I'm going to update you guys more along the way it goes and and see how much it starts to hurt. So, at the beginning, I think I overdid it cuz I didn't know it didn't sting for like 10 to 20 minutes. Wait, hold on. It's starting to get really bad, dude.
Starting to get really bad. It's like someone's taking a lighter and just lighting your arm on fire with gasoline and like little prickly stings. Look at that, dude. Oh, doing all this for love, dude.
for me.
No, it's starting to get way worse, dude.
Oh, I can feel its venom going all throughout my body.
This water feels pretty good, though. I won't lie. Oh my gosh, I regret this.
It's like my bones are hurting as well.
I can't wait to see what this looks like at the very end of the night, maybe even in the morning. Right now, I can't even flex my arm, my forearm, because it hurts so bad. It feels like uh it's cramping right now, Coyote Peterson. I think I would have handled this way better than you. I have to redo the bullet ant video again just for you as well. All right, so we're in our house right now and uh I'm just kind of waiting before you see the end video of what the final looks like to like and subscribe. Please don't make me do this for, you know, a few thousand likes.
Please get this video to 10,000 likes.
It is so swollen and it hurts super super bad. Like look how swollen that looks. I didn't show it, but she ended up smashing it into a little paste and took the poop out like a Let's see if that works.
All right. So, she rubbed a little poop into my skin. First time I've ever had caterpill caterpillar. I can't even talk right now. Hurts so bad. Caterpillar poop.
>> Smells like It smells like grass. It smells like poop mixed with grass.
It hurts pretty bad still, but I'll give you guys an update here in a few minutes. Maybe like 20 minutes of the of the poop.
>> Can someone >> Can someone look that up? This is the fire puss caterpillar. If you put the guts or the poop on your arm, will that heal it? Like, will that stop the incredible stinging? But it's just in your bones, dude. It it feels like it's deep inside your bones just going up in your arm. And she was right. I think in my lymph nodes right here. It's starting to get a little swollen ball and it's starting to hurt really bad right here in my lymph nodes. It doesn't hasn't gone down here to my hip yet, but it for sure it's in my lymph nodes and hurts.
Hurts pretty bad right here. I I got to lay down. I'm sorry, guys. I'm sorry. I don't care about the video anymore. I got to lay down. All right, guys. The pain's starting to fade. Here's my Goku background, but it's about uh 2:30 in the morning. I'll see you in the morning. I got to I got to sleep, dude.
I'll see you in the morning to talk about the experience and why you should not do it and to give the final pain rating and specifically to tell you why you should not do it. All right. Well, good morning, guys. The pain is practically completely gone. It's still like a tiny bit sore. I'm going to show you guys what it looks like.
Imagine just a little rash left over. I don't even know if you guys can see it.
Yeah, you can see it. Just a little rash left over. All right, guys. Let me cut in real quick. I'm editing the video and I started scratching it cuz it started itching. Now it's on fire again, itching. It was It wasn't itching before, but now that I touch it again, it inflamed. So, before you continue on the video, basically, if you touch it again, it's going to look like that again. So, yeah, inflamed one more time.
It stings so bad, dude. It stings so bad and itches so bad again. So yeah, I'll probably be itching for the next few days. Anyway, let's get back to the final pain rating. Um, don't please don't do this. Don't do this to yourself. Don't do it. For every single little spot I got stung, which is probably in the hundreds or thousands.
You never know. But yeah, guys, uh, do I recommend this? 100% no. But if you're in the Amazon and you want to impress an indigenous girl and she says that you shouldn't do it because it doesn't hurt really bad, that means you probably should do it. You know, just a little flex just to, you know, show you the big man around campus around there. Okay. It was not worth it at all, dude. I mean, what's the point of it, right? What's the point? Just to show off, you know, if you're not showing off, never do that in your entire life. But, uh, if you are showing off, you know, you can survive it. No big deal. You can survive it. The final pain rating in comparison to the bullet ant which the bullet ant is considered a hot iron nail driving through the bottom of your foot according to the what is it the Schmidt index there's a sting index by this one dude to get stung all around the entire world by the most you know uh venomous uh venomous um insects and he rated the most painful sting in the entire insect kingdom was the bullet ant. So, I would say the bullet ant was right here cuz I got stung like seven times. That was really, really, really bad. This was probably like a like right here. And then in comparison, let me show you all the way down all the way down here on the ground.
That's like a fire ant. So, don't get me wrong, they hurt really, really, really bad. But nothing like the bullet ant, dude. The bullet ant is next level, dude.
Seriously, next level. Anyway, guys, if you enjoy this video, please like and subscribe, and let's try to get this video to 10,000 likes. You guys are the best. Thank you for watching.
