VICE - 2012-10-19
VICE heads into the Amazon on a hunt for its most hallucinogenic tree frogs. In part 3, a frog is caught, and a mind is blown. Watch the rest here: http://bit.ly/Frog-Tripping-1 http://bit.ly/Frog-Tripping-2 There is an Amazonian frog called Phyllomedusa Bicolor or the Sapo which I have been reading about for years. It is totally different from the psychedelic toads found in North America. The Sapo's venom produces an effect much closer to morphine than LSD, but really it's not like either of those things. It's a distinctly vomitous dissociative experience unlike anything else I've ever encountered. There has been a lot written about the chemistry of the venom, and it has been said to have a diverse array of effects. Some people think it's a miracle opioid which will yield new non-addictive painkillers. Others think it's a super-potent stimulant and appetite suppressant, and even a strange psychedelic capable of tuning hunters on to the mindset of their prey. In the 80s researchers found one of the constituents of Sapo venom in the urine of autistic children, and developed an entire theory of autism around it. I had to find out what this frog really does, but supposedly it cannot produce its venom in captivity. The only way to experience its unique trip is to travel down the Amazon River and catch one yourself, which is exactly what I did. — VICE Correspondent Hamilton Morris Watch more VICE documentaries here: http://bit.ly/VICE-Documentaries Subscribe to VICE for the best videos online: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE Check out our full video catalog: http://www.youtube.com/user/vice/videos Videos, daily editorial and more: http://vice.com Like VICE on Facebook: http://fb.com/vice Follow VICE on Twitter: http://twitter.com/vice Read our tumblr: http://vicemag.tumblr.com
"He will be able to stand 2 stings at best"
Man these people really underestimate big city addicts
😂

More like big city people underestimate these drugs
😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂😭😂😂🤣🤣😂😂
plot twist: This documentary was actually the frog's dream. He drank Hamilton's sweat, and tripped balls for 5 days straight.
It od lol
classic one , nice !
That was weak. Go back to school
Sumtingwong Richard What you got bitch?
That hilarious lol probably true that dude looks like he could show Jerry Garcia a thing or two about tripping out lol
Kudos to these people, for keeping this guy alive for a whole week. Seriously impressive.
Withoudadoubt.
Indeed, he looks so dead in his normal state already...
@Dragon_Iord
Luckily they found him more drugs in time 🙏
Lol serrriously
Thats how long it generally takes to fatten him up.
u know ur in deep when ayahuasca is a side quest
😂😂😂😂😂

So true. Hahaha
Is this the TOAD that MIKE TYSON is always talking about on his podcast?his co host Eban says it gives u an ego death and you see your life and all your past and its like being REBORN..point is if this is the toad they talk about on every podcast it seemed it DID NOTHING of the sort..so if anyone can tell me id,appreciate it
Frog 2: bro where have you been we have been looking for u forever man
Frog 1: I don’t want to talk about it
peep <3

Once you've seen it... It'll fuck you up...😧
peep <3
After getting untied, the frog is like "well that was fucking weird."

hahahaha
💀💀
😁😁😁😁😁😁😆
😂
"The frog and I exchange a glance" made me actually laugh out loud
Same lol
"Who's the mujer now?"
Lmao and then the frog's eye at 8:24
These people are nice to trip with, they took care of him well lol.
You talking about the frog or Hamilton?
David legend
Saidal GhaziAlam fr they fanned him like if i was trippin and people were doing that i’d be so over affectionate
@kami8696 exactly
For real friends would have just laughed
😭😭 they were standing around this scrawny ass dude like “go white boy go”
Bdsm
@siyaserebrums frog bdsm
🤣😂🤣
😭😭😭
“Bro, I’m coming over, you have some weed ?”
“Nah, man, but I have a frog”
If I ever had a friend hit me up and say “bro, I’m coming over, but do you have any weed for us to smoke or else I’m not coming over” I’d tell the fake Fuck to go Fuxk himself lol
@BWeezie405 no cap bro lmaoo
"Bet"
Kermit....
I love how they were all laughing at him thinking he was a lightweight but he actually handled it way better than the local man.
One look at that guy and it's clear he can handle his drugs
They were laughing at him because he looks like a little girl.
@John Doe: Oh right. He looks like he’s going to drop dead at any moment from some illness based on how he looks.
never underestimate city crackheads
At one point someone in background says "aguanta muy bien" it means he can take a lot 😆 😂
The poor frog went back into the jungle and said you'll never believe what they did to me
Nah, he knew it was some kinky shit...
that was actually his fetish and he just came
"They probed me with a stick made of REDWOOD then extracted my skin shit" sure they did frank. Sure they did
KOilithya Maybe franky isnt that wilde?
Like shit lmaoo
"the frog and me exchange a glance"
Intense
That caused a 5 day fever
I'm assuming they both had the same thing going through their heads. A whole lotta nothing.
@salvinorindoge3811 underrated comment of the day.
The point where i started warming up to this guy
All I want to know is if the ice lasted 6 days like his guide said it would! Lol
kyle shultz honestly!
I want to know if the guy from the first house wanked with the Vice magazine or not
hmmm
I want to know if the captain took off his pants after hamilton did the 4th frog hit
His guide probably meant that if you did ice you can stay going for 6 days straight.
Could you imagine asking the manager of an American motel if you could use their kitchen to brew up some ayahuasca 😂
People that take care of you while you're high are best kind of people.
people who take care of your ass when you’re a high american are getting paid.
Exactly!
@axiomaddict 🤣
Trip guides, as we used to call them and when I took real LSD, FROM Frisco when it was still legal, I was high for two days ! I swore I would never do this again, but I did. My trip guide was my older friend Big D, and he really got me thru.
Unless they have intentions of taking that a$$... 😂
That frog has more muscle tone than this dude.
There’s definitely more flesh to eat on the frog 🤷♀️ good guy to send to a village of ex-cannibals.
Lol. That's funny
Frog is like dude imma bout to fuck you up
that frog is arnold Schwarzenegger compared to this guy XD no offence this guy can take one hell of a trip
He is the skinniest dude I have ever seen!
After recovering from the frog he takes ayahuesca then to combat the sleepines he takes ritalin😂😂 soemone pray for this guy
Well gahdayum
Lmaooooo seen the prescription bottle and was like bruh.
Someone would say, totally disrespectful of the medicine plant. Oh well, to each his own, I guess 😊.
Lmaoooooo deadass
@LS-fw6qm lmao. same. I was like sweet Jesus somebody stop him
From chilling to BDSM. Poor frog
I'm stoked they didn't kill the frog.
Me too! When he was on the table next to big ass machete I thought they were going to. I was so happy that they didn’t but I still had a hard time watching him get strung up like a damn crucifix.
same
I was worried for the frog too, great to see it still kicking about
Right I thought they was going to
@francisdapro3296 brazilians natives take care of our nature and animals 🥰
I bet the frog felt like a cheap date....MILK ME THEN LEAVE.
😂😂😂😂😂
LMFAOOOOOOO
Sign me up
😂😂😂😂
Yeah, that's messed up! Didn't give the frog some play!
PHd’s aside... this guy is so burnt that when he takes powerful drugs he’s exactly the same.
he just gets more normal
lol
I would go a step further and say he looks like he lost interest in sober life and it shows, he came alive tripping
@user-wo9xo7ie3b thats how it be with addiction
He def burnt out cause damn nothing gets to him venoms pills poison like damn
6:36 “who’s the mujer now?” Translates to who’s the woman now?? Lmao this guy is something else 😂
Savage 😂
Lol his writeup mentions they were talking smack pretty much/prob called him that 1,000 times before that
Hamilton needs to take a TRIP to McDonald's and get some double cheese burgers.
ahahahahahahahahahahah .... ahahahahahahahahah ..... : )
An espresso dunkin donut. Some sour diesel
and he maybe needs to try some testosterone shots he is kinda weak looking not trying to crack on him but he is skinny and was scary in the jungle
The frog looks way healthier then him
Than
😂😂
Dude this cracked me up..LMAO
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes he does, this feller looks like he just got over a worm treatment.
Then him
Dear vice, please feed this man a sandwich... he's starving.
🙏😂😂
and dbs check him
lol
It's because of the opioids.
He's looking much better nowadays.
people speaking spanish and portuguese in the same vacinity is so interesting, as a spanish speaker I almost fully understand the brazilian portuguese language and the fact that we can understand eachother almost seemlessly is amazing. It says alot about latin languages
DA S awww, little baby pooped his diaper? Did you get cranky and now you need mommy? That’s sad. Go back to tiktok buddy. Take your high chair with you. 😢😢
DA S😂😂😂😂😂😂
RAPEDBYBLACKS you have the username of a five year old
The guy didn't take off his pants on the fourth burn.
vinbobucket360 keep watching. You'll get What you want
vinbobucket360 I was thinking the same thing
Happend off camera
Yes I feel short changed but not in a gay way
same dissapointing just came for some dicccc
the more I watch this man, the more I realize why vice decided to hire him...
No thanks, I'll stick with my weed. Felt bad for that frog.
@best butter amen brother!
@AndThenSome71 drug addict
My weeds sticky!
Snook West lol.. For real!!
I love weed but I enjoy trying other drugs at least once or twice just to learn how they affect my body
If this guy survived in the Amazon, I’m sure anyone could 😂
Hahahahaha, perfect bro
Dude looks forever high lol 😂
“ the effects of the jelly was euphoric, but I’m pretty sure I could achieve better results rubbing it inside my nose “ 🥲that’s how you know this guy did not come to play games
Time stamp I don’t believe u😂😂😂
Haha
This is how you know this dude's brain is gone since few years
No fuckery
Imagine ur job is being payed to go do drugs in other countries
an addicts dream
That’s would be awesome
Followed his dream
For him thats a hobby turned into a business
Thats exactly how this "journalist" looks like.
Alternate ending: Turns out the frog jelly is just poison, and the village is still cannibalistic.
What part of this guy were they going to eat? No muscle at all
CosmosGaming you mean no fat?
@kemocoolin9391 No... I mean no muscle. You do know when you eat meat, you're eating the muscle right? Usually the skin and fat is trimmed off, at least with any decent cut of meat.
Johnny Pickup that wouldn’t work. They would then kill themselves by eating the poisoned body
Its white meat
The most psychedelic parts of the documentary it's when everytime he greets the family who hosted him after on the boat he looks at the camera and says : i love them...
"I request a fourth burn, more sapo than the captain...Who is the MUJER now?"
Jorge Alberto I read that as he said it
@jomillz548 so did I
@stacksamerica there's no way of proving it to you but yes I could
Kornikus the captain did😂🤷🏼♂️
Jonathan Larrarte r/iamverybadass
Try and find another video where a chicken had it's neck snapped and killed,
We saw a baby monkey, you heard about a fish called the "Penis Fish" and you saw
the cutest frog in the world tied up like it was Jesus Christ on a cross.
Go ahead... I'll be waiting.
The fkn chicken survived the first onslaught !
Well there was my 18th birthday celebration but that also consisted of 4 bottles of whiskey, 6 Russian men named Ivan, and a school bus... Close enough tho🤷🏻♂️
not a video but I’ve seen these things in real life. except for the penis fish lol
MISTA 808 I wish I can favorite comments so I can come back to laugh later. These are great 😆
This kids a fucking straight goof, gunna mock "Indians" when he's not in India. This kids a fucking head
I just wanna know who decided, “hey, let’s rub this frog jelly on my burn”
Was prolly to see if it would heal it
Gavin Banting that’s true it could’ve been seen as some sort of aloe
I had the same question. Like what’s the thinking? Also it seems like there’s so little reward.
@SluggardRaccoon then they were tripping sac
It could have happened on accident
No one’s talking about how Hamilton admits to using synthetic cannaboids and Ritalin while on this trip? I wonder if that effected his toad trip later on.
I noticed that he probably brought Adderall to stay up in some volume or xanax to be able to sleep I mean he is in the jungle...
They srung that frog up like a virgin sacrifice
their long and storied history of cannibalism probably helped them learn this
😂😂😂
Brodie Knight 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 Foreal!!
Everybody on Ayahuasca:
"I am God, we are all God! We are all one and everything is so beautiful!"
Hamilton:
"There are so many more psychoactive substances to explore!"
And don't forget to smuggle the toy boat.
nun wrong wit that- everyone handles things different
When the Frog licked Hamilton, it tripped balls for 3 days straight. At one point Frog tripped so much, he thought he was Jesus being crucified
That is f**** hilarious dude
This is gold lmfaooo
Ha ha ha perfect!
Simon Sim1945 this did me in lmaoooo
Simon Sim1945 fuck frog maaan 😎😎
I wouldn’t mind tripping with these folks they seem fun and caring 😂
When he said “lemme get one more” I was like 😳😳
Been many peoples exact words then the oh shit i did too much part lol
banana rama where's it's party time all the time lmao facts! Been there done that unfortunately 😅
banana rama where's it's party time all the time probably wanted a good dosage since he’s gone out in the middle of a different country
Junkie lol
10% of the comments are talking about frog bdsm
and the other 90% are flaming the dude for being so skinny
Not one mentions this man's lack of true purpose. Pure exploit.
@fredrossi1334 You should go look up hamilton. He sure does have a purpose!
"Then the captain jumps into the piss river."
That’s what I heard too, had to rewind
It's astounding that people would actually want to feel this way.
It’s a high .. it’s just in our nature 😂
@marcusjohansson8902 I just want enlightenment, not seeing a full on nuclear war in my head
@MikeCHunt90731 true that tho 😂 but there is there and here is here , here we got maaaany variety of compounds to choose from they don’t 😜
@marcusjohansson8902 where are we talking about? I can't even get psilocybin online
@MikeCHunt90731 bruh just grow it yourself 😅🤲🏼 buy a sporeprint and inoculate some agar dishes then to grain , substrate n all that then boom own stash 😏💪🏼
These guys are so nice theyre fanning him like hes jesus
After they just called him a faggot haha
MustObeyTheRules well they did pretty much just poison him 😂
Trippy hippy ikr!! I was wondering if they were doing that bc he’s a white American dude with shoulder length hair they felt like they had to baby his sickly looking ass bc I didn’t see them fanning the captain like that.. plus I’m sure they got paid in some form
@helenabarnett1699 A lot of hispanic cultures are overly accommodating. They realize he's used to a different lifestyle, so they're trying to make the experience more pleasant for him.
@helenabarnett1699 You are spot on. They are.
"An exrucinating pain in my stomach like no other"... "give me another burn" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
just the last kidney struggling along
hamilton always went so far just for the story....
he's admirably dedicated to getting the information out there!
lmao xD
@dylandial9125 - 2019-05-09
