A Chinese vlogger accidentally poisoned herself while live streaming after she consumed a plant she mistook for aloe vera.
The 26-year-old, who goes by her surname Zhang, was live streaming her ‘Aloe Vera Feast’ to discuss the benefits of raw aloe vera. However, she did not realise that what she was actually consuming was Agave Americana, a poisonous plant from Mexico, local reports said.
In the video, Ms Zhang can be seen eating the ‘aloe vera’ but soon she realises there was a problem. “That’s bitter... that’s really bitter,” she can be heard saying.
Her mouth then went numb and her throat felt as though it was on “fire”. She cut off the live stream and went to the hospital, Mail Online reported.
