The Gympie Gympie plant, also known as the stinging tree, is a highly dangerous plant found in Australia. Its leaves and stems are covered in tiny hairs that release a toxin when touched, causing extreme pain, swelling, and even long-term nerve damage. Despite its toxicity, the plant has been used medicinally by Aboriginal people for thousands of years.
