What Is The Deadliest Substance On Earth? Toxicity Comparison 

Note: Botulism is not directly found in canned or processed foods, if not preserved correctly the food becomes a breeding ground for bacteria, including Clostridium Botulinum. This bacteria produces the toxin associated with botulism when it enters you body.

Best advice ever: if you start to feel yourself becoming paralyzed youd best drive as fast as you can.

Im high AF and paranoid rn im gonna die from cheese smh

I was eating nachos while watching this and just kinda paused and was like “guess I’ll die” and just continued eating

Fun fact: when I was in college, I was in the physics lab store room and found a volumetric flask filled with mercury. My prof said that it was enough to poison the entire water supply of the state of Texas. There was at least two of them. It was more than somewhat disconcerting. I do wonder what happened to them when they later refurbished the science building.

Everyone drinks water and everyone dies. Coincidence? I think not.

Thank you. Now I can never enjoy my food like I used to.

2:15 arsenic gets into ground water from old cemeteries which the deceased were embalmed with arsenic, which was the standard until formaldehyde was introduced.

Well, this made me realize how little I want to make contact with anything.

The deadliest toxin is overwatch competitive

“PEE, POOP, and then have seizures”

Cool story about Strychnine, it used to be used as a medicine in really small doses as a stimulant, and was even given to one of the runners of the 1904 St. Louis Olympic Marathon for that reason.

Whenever u see an Interesting title and ur like “wow kurzgesagt made a new video” u click them u get sad.

"If your face starts paralyzing and you can't speak, drive as fast as you can to a hospital." *Drives to a hospital* Limbs start paralyzing Dies in car accident

No. 1 is Jake Paul!

I love the big bold letters that say “DO NOT TRY THIS” for the apple seed one. Anyway brb gotta go buy a bunch of apples for no particular reason

The most potentially deadly substance is the food my ex would put before me. I escaped just in time.

I wonder how many will after this refuse to eat cheese sauce ever again.

This is great for my anxiety

Fun fact: Cyanoacrylate is a type of cyanide (I think) that was found in a lot of over the counter super glues. An extremely effective adhesive, was used in the war to close up wounds. Extremely bad for ones lungs and respiratory system. Most bootmakers (myself included) had repeatded exposure to it, (yes, in modern times) with little to no ventilation or cross flow.

* When your face starts paralyzing and you can't speak, drive as fast as you can to a hospital * So... When already in the hospital what should we say?

I hate yet like watching these because it makes me paranoid to do anything but it's fascinating

“Many things we might consume” “1g bag of Cocaine” Hmmm...🤔🤔

The Infographics Show: Arsenic and Cyanide are dangerous. Me: *then why do we eat apples?*

thanks for sharing The Infographics Show

6:36 “paralysis is so immediate that birds would just fall from the sky when hit” Well yeah maybe that’s because they’ve just been shot with a dart

"When your face starts paralyzing and you can't speak, drive as fast as you can to a hospital". Not sure if you want to drive if your face is paralyzed.

Note: There are several types of mercury. Some is even ok enough to touch. The problem comes from ingesting it but mainly from inhaling mercury gases. Also the methomercury was a new type of mercury that usually latex gloves can protect against mercury, but this new type of mercury was able to move through it like it was cloth. Eventually being absorbed into her skin.

Thank you for making me scared of every single food in the world

Great, now i'm too spooked to ever eat canned foods again

Mercury is not 'found in metals', it is a metal.

When your face starts paralyzing and you can’t speak, drive as fast as you can. 😂

I like how I always touched mercury several times in my childhood, when a thermometer broke, and I had no problems

No. 1: Minecraft intros. This is known as the fastest killing toxin, killing you after instantly after watching a minecrafter dabbing.

Cyanide can be healthy if it is mixed with some happiness

Wow That Phantasmagoria Scary ( Awesome Video )

Watching this while eating is really comforting

1. Intense lag when your playing an Online Game

1.Loneliness and Depression

1:37 nice editing skill dude Like the cutting is SO in sync

why would anyone click dislike on this vid? this is A+ information! thank you infographics show!

I remember Ricin from Breaking Bad.

A couple of things: Strychnine: These "muscle spasms" are so intense they can break your bones. Nasty stuff. Cyanide: Disables protein in mitochondria that produce energy. This occurs in seconds; essentially irreversibly, and has the effect on our body like running out of oxygen, everywhere, simultaneously. In other words it's like having every muscle cramp, like a stitch in your side, charlie horse, etc, plus the intense pain of a heart attack, and the debilitation of a stroke, all at once. Probably worse than burning yourself alive in terms of pain. Mercury: The kind in thermometers wont participate in reactions in your cells. You could drink a lot of it. Organic mercury, like you said, is nasty. Botulism Toxin: There are many nasty toxins produced by the species Clostridium botulinum. They all act by causing the nerve terminals on our muscle cells to over-fire. In other words, once they are introduced to muscle, they cause it to contract without stopping. This is why Botox works! Extremely small amounts are injected, around small muscles, and they cause them to contract which stretches out the skin. That's why someone who has had a lot of botox seems to have their face stuck in a certain expression, often like they are constantly surprised. Very importantly, C. botulinum is anaerobic, that means it grows without oxygen. We can/jar things to protect the contents from oxygen so it doesn't spoil or grow bacteria which need oxygen. Having no oxygen in the can/jar makes a perfect home for C. botulinum, and that is why we heat them up high enough to kill the initial bacteria. If we dont they multiply, and produce waste gas, as well as their toxins, this causes the cans to puff up, or jars to burst. IT IS ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL TO KNOW COOKING CANNOT DESTROY THE BOTULISM TOXIN. If you have a can which has puffed up - DO NOT OPEN. Additionally, if you ever feel your face is paralyzed, you should never drive to the hospital. Call 911 immediately and describe the situation. Statistically speaking, almost 1 million to one odds, you're having a stroke. If you are brought in by paramedics and are paralyzed, poisoned or having a stroke you will not have to wait in the waiting room and you will not crash your car on the way!

About the time this video came out, I had anxiety for weeks. Now, after researching a bit more, I'm no longer scared

Great video!

The most dangerous is The high ground !

Nothing is as toxic as players in dota 2

This show never let's me down. They always make me scared after these type of videos. Well Done!

Been binging Infographics Show for the past week

#1 Online gaming communities

Watching this makes me feel slightly more paranoid lol

Note, he’s talking about hydrogen cyanide.

This really helped with my school project

Thanks for making me actually worry about how long i'm going to live before i have a random encounter with one of these. My stress level has increased to 9000. Subbed!

Most Toxic substance: My EX.

This video is very interesting information and educational.

i have to do an assignment about Botulism and this video was helpful, thank you sm!

The deadliest toxin is fortnite fanboyism.

That accident with mercury was actually with dimethyl mercury during an NMR experiment, which is way way way worse. Mercury itself isn't so bad; the salts of mercury are REALLY nasty.

Jesse: So, what are we going to do with them? Are we just gonna grow a magic beanstalk? Huh? Climb it and escape? Walt: We are going to process them into ricin. Jesse: Rice ‘n Beans?

Karen Wetterhahn didn't die to the silvery, liquid mercury we all know and love, but an organomercury compound known as dimethylmercury. It's most definitely not something you'd want to mess around with, but fortunately it isn't something you'd normally come across in day to day life

When your face starts paralyzing and you can't speak,drive as fast as you can to a hospital. WOW great idea thanks dude!

Both my parents got mercury poisoning. They went to a specialized doctor to cure it. Thats where they met and their still married about 20 years later

My brain: STOP WATCHING I'M SCARED Also my brain: KEEP WATCHING

deadliest substances? Strange matter would destroy the world and everything touching it with less than an atom. Kurtzgesagt fans raise your voices!

Can’t get food-poisoned if you don’t eat anything.

I just finished my nachos before watching this vid...

Man your voice is relaxing

I had a scare a about 6 months ago when a can of dog food exploded when I was opening it. Thankfully, it didn't get on my face or anywhere near my mouth. But I was hella scared for the next couple of days.

great content and editing, feels good to watch, keep it up ;)

This made me slightly depressed

thanks a lot i was looking for easy way for subside you just teach it to me

Soman could be included instead of Sarin. It never was mass produced in WW2 and doesn't have the notriety of Sarin but it's essentially just an even stronger nerve agent. Also the book Black Cross by Greg Iles focuses on it and is an amazing read if anyone is interested. That's what got me started on that research rabbit hole

thanks... ill just live in a bubble now.

Have you tried playing league of legends? TOXIC

3 years later in my recommendations at 5am RU-vid knows what I wanna see this early

Thank you

number 1 toxin is LoL midlaners just starting a conversation with it can cause severe headaches, trauma, heart failure, respiratory problems, and suicidal thoughts death within milliseconds.

I’m suddenly a germaphobic

Now, i have a “theory” : What if we live more and wont get old? What if there is another thing to breathe?

no. 1: ajit pai's face

Deadliest substance in the world is love

Thanks for letting me know how many apple seeds i need to digest to die. Was looking for that information.

One time; the water in my home at the time had arsenic in it. I had a horribly high fever and digestive problems for a while. than after the well was fixed everything when back to normal. I was 8 at the time. We have sense moved out.

That nacho cheese sauce that killed that poor fellow also got another victim, only he did not die, he is paralyzed from the neck down. They both got the botulism from the same place, a gas station that sells the nacho chips and they put the cheese sauce in a five gallon dispenser with a built in heater. You take your chips, your hotdog, whatever you want and open the tap, let the gloop out. This particular tub of shit had been sitting it that there for five days straight. Nice huh? There is a Speedway down the block from me and I see people putting that shit on their stuff all the time. If you're desperate enough to eat food from a gas station convenience store....don't.

When they did the study on the dart frog and the natives said “the effect was so immediate that the bird fell out of the sky right away”, wouldn’t that happen anyways if you hit a bird with a regular arrow?

Mercury is a planet Never knew it was a deadly substance

4:26 *Tuco has left the chat.*

Watch enough of Ninja's streams and you will get poisoned.

Why some scenes are really well animated and clean while others seem to be created with windows movie maker?

I swear I have Strychnos nux-vomica because my left arm/shoulder has been hurting from last night to this morning and if I move in a weird way it has a pain and then if I take a deep break while by left arm/left shoulder is in a position it hurts and I take a deep break it’s hurts a lot there

Welcome to: getting scared of literally everything with the infographics show!

*Okay,* RU-vid, I'll watch it!

Number 6 and Happiness

2nd video ..... Again... Nice job

Ricin is so so easy to make so I would say that one is the most concerning you could go the the grocery store and come out with the tools to make Ricin.

Number 15: Burger king foot lettuce.

Crazy! Love this Show!

My mother used to have a castor bean plant growing in her backyard. It was destroyed by a hurricane years ago, but I used to collect the beans in a plastic tube because I thought they looked cool.
