TikToker Can't Stop Inhaling 'Beautiful Flower'—And Learns The Hard Way It's Highly Poisonous

TikToker Can't Stop Inhaling 'Beautiful Flower'—And Learns The Hard Way It's Highly Poisonous

In an unplanned PSA, a woman on TikTok spread the word about a highly toxic flower she'd sniffed endlessly only a few nights prior.

Why all the sniffing? Because it smelled good, of course.


The TikToker, who goes by songsbyralph, explained the flower's dangers by recounting the fateful night when the good fragrance turned on her.

With text laid over a clip of herself nose deep in the flower, she walked viewers through how it all went down.

"Me and my BFF found this beautiful flower and spent the night deeply inhaling its smell."
"When we arrived at our friends' birthday we both suddenly felt so f'ked up and had to leave. When I got home and fell asleep, I had the craziest dreams and experienced sleep paralysis for the 1st time in my life."

As songsbyralph went on to share, there was only one possible explanation.

"Turns out the flower is super poisonous and we accidentally drugged ourselves like idiots."

As she went on to show with a screenshot of a Google search, the menacing flower is known as "Angel's Trumpet."

A quick scroll through the flower's Wikipedia page yields some terrifying truths about the plant. It causes tremors, muscle paralysis, visual and auditory hallucinations and even death.

An article in the scientific journal Pathology reported the hallucinatory effects were "terrifying rather than pleasurable." The Encyclopedia of Shamanism has found "Brugmansia induces a powerful trance with violent and unpleasant effects, sickening after effects, and at times temporary insanity."

There was even one scenario when a guy ingested tea made from the flower and cut off his own penis and tongue.

Many TikTokers were hardly surprised by what happened after she sniffed the flower.

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is facing heavy criticism after claiming that Americans "want their tax dollars spent on things like" President Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund that may go to his allies and those who participated in the January 6 insurrection.

The Justice Department said last week it was creating the fund as part of a deal in which Trump agreed to drop his $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS. But despite a press release, memo, and a newly-released settlement agreement, many details about the program remain unclear.

Getting a new pet is a big commitment, and when you decide to take the plunge, you should commit to keeping them for their full lifetime.

But if you're going to get an animal that you have no prior experience with, you also have to commit to doing your research so you can care for them properly. While getting advice from a fellow pet owner is helpful, it's always good to double-check their facts.

President Donald Trump had a hilariously brutal response after a reporter asked him if he planned to attend the wedding of his son Donald Trump Jr. in the Bahamas this weekend, saying the event is "not good timing for me."

Trump Jr.—who was previously engaged to current U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle—will marry Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson this weekend, but Trump made it pretty clear the event isn't exactly at the top of his list of priorities, pointing to the war in Iran and "other things" that are keeping him busy.
