Cypress Spurge (Euphorbia Cyparissias) is a toxic plant which contains white sap. The plant alone is said to be poisonous in large amounts, and the sap can also cause serious skin irritation in susceptible individuals.

I am aware of the plant’s toxicity, but I’ve never had any issue with the alleged dermatitis it is said to cause. Nor do I know anyone who’s had any such experience, and I’ve been shown this magic trick since I was a child and then I’ve showed it to children myself who then in turn showed it to their peers. We in fact can’t wait until Cypress Spurge begins to grow so we can show this trick.

Still, it’s prudent to exercise caution when handling toxic plants which means you probably shouldn’t copy this magic trick. I myself know the sap doesn’t cause any issues to me nor anyone else I know, so I’m cool doing that, and in this video I demonstrate this easy trick.

The magic would have worked out better if I had a smaller tripod, but I think you get the general idea anyway.

I hope the video was helpful and educational for you, but please bear in mind that I’m not an expert and may be wrong about anything I say. Always do your own research and if you need an expert advice, do consult an actual expert.
