Story borrowed from our friend John King

Hiking story time! Love this story I got to share, I would never have made it home

So there I was on a trail and noticed I needed to tie up a boot... I sat on this dead log, bent over to lace it up aannddd seen this right underneath me.
Pretty sure I let out a fear fart as I screamed and jumped off in 2.5 seconds flat... seriously thought I was now a person who discovered a dead body/ body part... so then my toddler side in me got curious and poked it... then saw that its hooked onto a stem that goes into the ground.
So I whipped out my handy dandy Google friend and typed in "foot plant mushroom" and there it was... "dead man's finger/toes fungi". The end.

Edit: those who are asking, yes you can share.
Share the awareness.
Could possibly save the underwear of a hiker who didn't think to bring a spare pair or toilet paper. Lol

MISTY SUNRISE AT LAKE PANIC.
Adult hippos can hold their breath underwater for up to six minutes and typically walk along the bottom of a river or lake rather than swim.
Babies, meanwhile can only last about 30 seconds – but they do have an incredible ability to suckle underwater by closing their ears and nostrils.
Hippo milk is pink. Yes, pink!
And a single cup contains more than 2,000 kiloJoules.

Hi Roklok

Thank you / merci
