Although Vince writes that Red Tree Frog is the most poisonous and gets sick after consuming it the compound is not lethal at all. The most dangerous of these is actually Strychnine as a very tiny amount will cause serious adverse health effects, including death. Most likely, this false narrative is given to reduce the likelihood that viewers will poison themselves.
