Amanita muscaria, toxic or edible? (Starts at 0:01)
For in depth information about the Amanita muscaria, this is a fantastic article. NOTE: This article states that no deaths have been attributed to A. muscaria, however since its publication a recently released study, "2006-2017 Summary of Mushroom Poisoning Reports in the NAMA Registry" by Michael W Beug, Chair NAMA Toxicology Committee, states a single death attributed to A muscaria (however indications there were likely other factors involved as well).

Are too many people getting into foraging mushrooms and is it a concern that we are teaching more people to go out and pick mushrooms? (Starts at 6:30)
How can I get involved more with the science and research, do I have to get a degree to do so, how do I find a mentor to help? (Starts at 10:30)
If you aren’t part of a Mycological Society or Mushroom club, head to the North American Mycological Association’s Website and check out their index of clubs all around North America: Namyco.org
Note: Not all clubs are NAMA affiliates, there could be clubs local to you that are not on this list.
Great places to get started in some Citizen Science action (and yes, a full video on this topic has officially been filmed and is in the works!).

Are the spores of toxic mushrooms toxic for me to breathe? Will I get sick if I have a lot of mushrooms around me and I’m breathing in lots of spores? (Starts at 13:40)
Cryptoccocus gattii articles: (Note, it is the natural wafting of the fungal spores in the air that have affected people, it is not associated with a specific handling of mushrooms, which makes the disease impossible to avoid for both city dwellers or forest folk.)

There’s a Star Wars Easter egg in this episode. I thought by the end of the day someone would comment about it... but maybe it hasn’t been found 😜
I head Vader after she said "mask up"
Vader mask, yeah
I heard it right away
Guess I'll have to hide them better...
I actually love the editing almost as much as i love the content!!!!!!!! Thanks for making "RUclips class" more interesting than it has to be!
In France, you can bring mushrooms you picked from the wild into just about any pharmacy and they will identify them for you. Also, it's much more common to see a very diverse selection of wild mushrooms at local markets there. That is all the result of a society where foraging for wild mushrooms is very common and extremely popular. Aside from the forests being a bit more crowded in the fall time, it's entirely a good thing!
Wish we had a place like that in the States, I feel like we have verted to far away from nature around here
I live in the bay field peninsula in WI, USA. On this peninsula, and (madeline island as well) there are commonly people selling foraged mushrooms.
@@florida001 you do you just don't know about them.
@@florida001 Please. Every american child is given the opportunity through science classes for 12 years. They would rather just says they know what they are talking about rather than listen and learn.
Wow, that is so cool!
In Sweden, as least as far as my own experience is concerned, you can basically only find the common button mushroom in a reasonably fresh state, and also portobello. Most stores tend to stock shiitake and oyster mushrooms but due to low sales volumes, they are almost always in poor shape, which I suppose serves only to reinforce people's dependency on the button mushrooms. The sad thing with this is that both button mushrooms and portobello mushrooms contain compunds which are believed to be mutagenic, called hydrazines, and which can be difficult to completely get rid off even when cooking (although it greatly helps and eating uncooked button mushrooms is now generally accepted as being unnecessarily risky from what I gather). The swedish "department of foodstuffs" even recommends to not only not eat them raw, but to not exceed the average consumption of 2,5 kilograms per year.
It is sad to have to restrict your intake of mushrooms just because the healthier ones are almost never found fresh.
Of course you can mitigate that a bit by picking and even buying wild mushrooms like chantarelles when they are in season, or even growing your own mushrooms if you have the facilities to do so, but I still don't like that I otherwise pretty much only have the options of button mushrooms commercially. Kind of sucks, to be honest.
I think every now and then about growing my own mushrooms so that I have a steady supply and maybe one day ahead I will completely lose my temper, snap, and Just Do It.
5:28, I have been fortune enough to have been born in Russia, there, mushroom picking is very common. When my family moved to the US, we would go on a lot of hiking trips, collecting wild berries, mushrooms, and other medicinal plants, so I feel very luck to have all of this knowledge passed down from my ancestors to me.
Very fortunate to have been born in...... Russia lol
@@darrelladon3619 Well...

Check out Amanita Dreamer's channel if you wanna learn more about this particular mushroom. She has a lot of great info.
true story bro
Just came from there to here! Lol
One night out camping in the mountains of upstate New York my friends and I picked a load of amanitas some red some yellow and we dried them by the fire and I believe I remember taking a lighter to the skin of them all for a minute or two and we ate like 6 or 7 big mushroom heads each. The trip was the best I've ever had in my life and I'll never forget it but that was the first and the only time I've ever tried them.
It's rare I can play a video on 1.75x and it sound fairly normal.
Bro this chick is so slow I can’t even watch it lol. She took 30 seconds to say its part 2, twice in a row.
It was very considerate of you to think of your followers when you when to the NAMA meeting! This is very well done for being on the spot interviews. Thanks for spending the time to put this together.
Thank you, it was fun to put together! Actually it was a little terrifying carrying around a gopro and looking silly with it, asking people if I could film them. But it turned out great!
The title of this video should be "How to make a 1 minute video last 17 minutes and 39 seconds."
Exactly, I kept thinking 'when is she going to get to the point?'

Your videos are absolutely lovely, I hope we don't lose you for an extended period again
Thank you, I hope that doesn't happen either :)
Mushroom just kicked in... I feel quite relaxed but energetic at the same time. Feels a bit euphoric.
Regardless of other comments, I think this was a wonderful explanation of a. muscaria. Wish more people would watch and pay attention. Not to mention the topic of more people becoming aware of our natural environment...Much-needed intelligent discussions. We sooo need more of this. Fantastic video, I'll be paying more attention to every episode. Thank you!!
Thank you, I appreciate your comment and am thankful you see the value in the topics!
I harvest and consume a great deal of these every year. Works wonders for pain relief for me.
Love your videos and very informational, I finally got the nerve to prepare and cooked the Amanita Muscaria two days ago after weeks of thinking about it and research. The preparation so I can taste it’s nuttiness wasn’t worth it when so many other mushrooms taste better.
In the central coast of California we have a good amount of foragers.
Can’t wait for part 3
Yayyy! So excited to see a new video! Was just enjoying some of your old stuff yesterday wondering when a new episode would come :)
Thank you, I feel especially honored that you look forward to my videos :)
@@YellowElanor excited for a citizen science video. I'll share to all my homeschool facebook pages 🤓🍄
From my family and friends, we love who you are, what you know what you do and that you have

Peace love & Happiness.
Amanita muscaria is quite blissful. It is known as the sacred soma of the Rg Vedas. Cut up a few small pieces and make a tea of it. First take a dramamine to prevent any onset nausea. It's a very nice, calm, soothing, blissful trance state. Beautiful. Yet you are totally present. Even more present than normally. It's a very nice experience.
Thank you just thank you for finally speaking sensibly about our oldest intoxicant. You are a 🌟
Thank you and I appreciate the rounded view points at how we perceive and approach mushrooms and foraging! I’m new and looking forward to my first foraging adventure
Love this woman's attitude. Very informative and concise.
I prefer to err on the side of accuracy of information. There are already so many fears for folks to overcome from long-held myths, misinformation, and cultural biases, when it comes to mushrooms. Amanita muscaria are a lot easier to cook safely than chicken, and a package of cut up raw chicken at the grocery store doesn't come with any instructions for safe handling or cooking, either. I follow the basic directions on p.234 of the Rubel and Aurora article that you link to in your video description, except I learned it as boiling the thin strips in 2 changes of salt water for 7 minutes each time, and then preparing how I want (like sauteing in a skillet). I consider A. muscaria real food for regular people -- at least for people that can safely cook chicken, too. But not everyone eats chicken, or wants to. At least with A. muscaria, even if folks don't ever eat any, everyone can appreciate how magnificent they look. Mushrooms are so cool -- happy mushroom hunting!
As far as safe handling instructions not being present on raw chicken, if you are in the US, it's against the law for that label to be absent. Source: my dad who was a meat inspector for the Food Safety and Inspection Service of the USDA.
You can decarb the Ibotenic acid into Muscimol that is significantly less toxic(and quite enjoyable). 1 Hour at 125F after drying will do the job. I have never felt ill to my stomach with such methods.
Hi bro, how you mantein that temperature consisteinly 1 hour, can you help me please with the method you used? i have 20grs of dry amanita and i want to try it like this week, cheers!!
Always learn so much from your RUclips channel and Instagram account!
Also, very glad you were able to keep your "Sun-star" flower name✨
Oh me too! Thank you so much!
They give me vivid and incredible dreams, I'll never forget my first carefully taken larger dose. I also feel that the body needs to get used to it before one can take higher doses
micro dose
Yeah totally agree I have special enzyme in my body that breaks down the mushroom very well. Freah
Thank you for your comprehensive information. I've been hunting mushrooms for many years and I find you tips very helpfull
I'm glad to hear that! Thank you :)
They're native to the UK and I find many in oct/Dec. I've eaten many and still here. They're so beautiful though. I cured one in clear resign and it sits on my coffee table.
If a person doesn't have both a sense of childlike wonder ...and old sage like respect, they don't belong in the forest. They would be better placed in a mall or a political rally, lol.
There’s a Facebook group Amanita Mushroom Truths, Science, Allies, and Experience. Yes I utilize them. The group and the shrooms. With caution and never telling anyone else to, without MUCH research, which yes can get confusing. 🍄
Thank you for this tip about the FB group and for the comment, I appreciate what you shared 💚
Started foraging two yrs ago for spiritual path - both to eat for health and for the psychoactive aspects. Been an honor. Indeed, stomach issues time to time. But still here avoiding the truly dangerous species n focusing on those that demand care n respect, ie amarita muscaria fermosa n guessowii. Good luck n be smart n ‘nibble’ dont bite! Great info video. Thanks 🙏
8:50 is the reason why a lot fishermen and hunters are also the ones who care most for the fish and wild animals of the land. It’s not that we want to destroy nature, but be apart of it.
In an anthropology class I learned about plants that indigenous people of the southwest consumed. Many of them needed significant processing to make them "edible." Desert almonds, for example, had to be ground up and leached with water for at least a day to remove enough tannin to make them edible. Some plants were impossible for any of us to eat and I suspect that the native Americans had a different intestinal flora than we do. I have never eaten amanita muscaria, but I have seen people who say it is delicious when prepared carefully. Because it is so prolific at times I would definitely consider it as a survival food if times get tough.
This year is bountiful of mushrooms I’ve never seen . Rain and humidity has been just right
I eat alot of Amanita Muscaria...(close to a pound (dry) this year) I find that when it's wet it hurts my tum tum but when it's dry there is no issues..I like to eat 10 dry grams at a time, the effects are like indica cannabis (calm and chill) somewhat of a drunk feeling but very clear. The energy feels like a snow day..soothing and relaxing.
I agree ! I eat them dried instead of making sun tea . Although I hear sun tea opens full potential
How do you dry yours?
it makes u trip hard and see things its fun
I used to love consuming the dried caps for the relaxing effect.
In the Southeastern United States, we eat a green leafy plant called Polk salad or Poke sallet, which is a lot like collard greens or mustard greens. My Grandma would go down by the creek and pick this wild green. I remember her telling me that it had to be boiled a certain way or it would be poisonous. This is a Southern U.S. tradition. I find it interesting how this became somewhat common practice, but doing the same thing with certain mushrooms did not.
I completely agree how responsible people are about things like that, as well as how people tout it as a party drug. It's not a party drug at all. It pisses me off cause people will get it illegalized by talking about it that way. I jate it when you go to forums and someone is like how much should i take and someone says: take 30 grams not realizing that jist cause they ate some and it did nothing to them that the next person needs to take more. People keep landing in hospitals over it treating it like a party drug and taking bad advice from people that have done virtually no research on it at all.
I was just thinking about you today😎🥦🍄🥦🍄in a learny way not a weird way🤓
Haha, good, hopefully you learned something then :)
Yeah right
I’ve slowly been learning to identify edible mushrooms. I get stumped now and then, but I make 100% sure Before eating. Recently could not tell if I had Deadly Galarina or ringless honey mushroom, even compared it to Enoki. It had slime, growing on compromised oak, yellow/tan cap, bass of stem slightly wooly and no ring, but a rust colored spore print. Most frustrating. Anyway, Eleanor I like watching your channel, please stay awesome.
Thanks! Good job on working out the ID with a spore print, so important.
Another great video! So many good and interesting tidbits of knowledge, fairy tale light orbs, warning label voice acting!
Hahaha, yes the fairy tale light is lovely...not so much with the voice acting (which I didn't even realize I was doing until watching the footage after!)
All of the best mamas and storytellers do voices! The mushrooms merit it!
Nice informative video! Keep up the good work and encourage more foraging. I advocate for that to stay close to our aboriginal roots which is great for our mental health and to promote care and sustainability for the forests.
☺️ Thank you
The whole " toxic" thing based upon regurgitation. I sez they are edible with benefits...based on experience.....use caution, titration, research, look before you leap ..... don't drive or operate machines. Trip sitter highly recommended. I keep this in my detox toolbox because it makes me sweat alot and when that parts over I feel calm and don't crave any type of high
Yeah if you cook it it won't make you trip. I think these people aren't taking about it though. I think RUclips demonitizes videos glorifying drug use.
Edible.. 5-6 grams of dried on an empty stomach is the perfect dose for me..
How does it effect u ?
@@rafaszalewski9040 it's like being drunk with visuals but I stick to psilocybin mushrooms for tripping

Aspergillus is a mold commonly known as mushroom workers lung disease. As she stated in tight quarters and high concentrations of aspergillus spores they can begin to grow in your lungs.
I always worry that i'm over-picking. Thanks for the encouragement!
You're really amazing Elanor! ...Where can one be viewing part three?
eating raw uncooked chicken is toxic but no one says Chicken is inedible ...they just don't want people to have knowledge
Very true mate
Aminita muscaria is also medical, if prepared and taken correctly in the right dose heat drying can convert some of the toxic compounds to medicinal compounds. Studies have found that muscomol is a GABA receptor agonist similar to a benzodiazepine.should you just pick fly agaric and eat it as is absolutely not because the concentration of active compounds vary so widely and the variablity is not based on size or time of year.
So do you think it would get you right or would it mess you up
There is a great e-book you can find out there in PDF for free, it is called "Amanita Muscaria; Herb of Immortality" I just loved this book. :)
Tnx
I see so much about this but it's old news tbh. My family has passed down a secret recipe for Fly Agaric wine for quite a few generations. It stems from my hillbilly ancestors incorporating their medicines with native American medicine.
That sounds so cool. Wish I could try.
Thanks for the insight... I'm a amateur photographer / videographer in the NW that's planning to traveling about next fall. Great list of resources!! Thanks!! Great production by the way...
Thank you! All production credit goes to my brother :) He makes it all look (and sound) good.
@@YellowElanor, Cheers to you both!
I can cook it. All you need to know is the right drying temperature regime. = )
Tried these twice properly prepared with no effects other than extreme drowsiness & vomiting, I think there are significant differences between how individuals process the chemicals involved, vastly more so than the predictability of Pscilocybin.
In terms of wild mushrooms for food I have tried most edible types in the UK, very few I find are palatable really with the major exception of fried giant puffball, yes you can eat lots of different types but most have acquired taste. My father was a senior lecturer in Agricultural Plant Sciences ( mostly mycology ) some of the most memorable moments of my childhood were spent rooting around in woods & fields on early Yorkshire Mycological Society fungal forays in the 1970's. Late teens early 1980's I developed a very different interest in mushrooms, it just gets more interesting the older you get.
This is an unrelated to this video comment for Rachel. You've expressed a number of times that you don't like when you say you can use this mushroom to dye. Well I have been thinking about it and I think I have a few suggestions for you. Use it to dye cloth, use it to color, use it as a dye. I am just trying to help out. I hoping for some new foraging videos soon. I have watch all of yours multiple times. Have happy mushrooming 🍄 .
After spending a few hours online, I decided to try it. I removed all the gills and just took the red jelly part and made tea out of it. I did feel a heavy buzz that was like a stimulant and sedative at the same time. I felt great like I was in a dream and then I fell asleep and had real crazy dreams.
You happen to remember how much ypu used and drank?
NelsonianB I picked three different sizes, probably no more than three ounces of the red meat.
A one off won’t kill you but ibotenic acid kills brain cells quite effectively. It is not converted via drying nor via boiling whether in acid or not. I suspect overuse will lead to Alzheimer’s or dementia like symptoms. The desire for a high is not worth the risk; there are safer psychedelic compounds.
@@amurika2018 wrong drying it does cause the change in muscamol
@@DeezNuts-xo2ee Very minimally, but you are technically correct. It's still recommended to prepare them in some form ofc, but A Murikas claim is still a little dubious that it may get to those extremes.
Isn't toxic too general of a term? Toxic doesn't equal deadly. Some vomiting isn't the same as liver failure. AFAIK you won't die eating amanita muscaria. You just get a stomach ache.
Pantherina, gemmata and citrinas everywhere in montana. Highly recommended and regarded for a weekend fishing trip as long as you aren't driving!
Yellow Elanor and Adam Haritan from Learn Your Land should get together and create a super myco baby.

Elanor,
Have you read Anna Tsing's "Mushrooms at the End of the World"? It's a really fascinating look at the intersections of a lot of different worlds around the supply chain of Matsutake mushrooms. From Washington state to Tokyo to Sweden to Yunan, it examines different foraging practices, forestry management techniques, scientific research paradigms, and cultural traditions, all related to Matsutake.
I haven't started reading it yet! But I just met Anna Tsing a few weeks ago, listening to her speak brought genuine tears to my eyes, she is such an eloquent and loving teacher.
@@YellowElanor that's amazing! She's kind of my hero right now. I love her vision of finding a future in the spaces between human and more-than-human worlds.
Great video! This is the first video of yours I have seen. I subscribed because I liked this so much, great work! Looking forward to seeing your other videos! Thank you!
Thank you! Glad you'll be coming along on more adventures with us :)
They're far too pretty to eat (or dry and turn into seasonal decorations) - I always fancied having a patch as a garden feature :)
.....yes, pine trees is the requirement to guarantee they'll grow . But locally at library they grow under an oak tree but pine bark mulch may be what had been spread under the canopy . Also noticed them growing under our tea trees (not camelia sinensis , not a camellia, just Aussie name for a tree ) elsewhere locally but with at least one huge radiata pine in the 20 acre area. In that situation they present as brown mushrooms of same shape and taste with odd normal red one here n there .
Me too! There was a cottage down the road from me where I grew up whose garden had beautiful fly agaric pop up every year. I always figured I would have made it in life if I had a garden with fly agarics. This year we had some appear for the first time in a stand of pines at the bottom of our garden. Delighted!
absolutely, universally true, and axiomatic, contextually irrefutable
I've read that A. Muscaria in fresh form contains ibotenic acid (which is quite toxic) and muscimol (which is less toxic but still can cause a bit of stomach distress). By drying it, the ibotenic acid converts to muscimol and it can be eaten more safely than in fresh form for a interesting trip. the only problem with mushrooms is that the potency of the substances can vary wildly. so if you want to try it out for its psychoactive proprieties, always start off with a low dose to avoid unwanted results and make sure the environment you are in is safe and u have a lucid person near that can assist you if anything goes wrong. i've also read about boiling it a couple of times in new batches of water while discarding the used one and it seems it has quite a good taste and texture but never tried it yet as I need to read a bit more about this. also, the trip of these can't really be compared to psylocibin mushrooms but it can definitely be an interesting experience in the right dose and conditions.
David Arora has a really good paper, freely available online, on the edibility of Amanita muscaria.
Amanita, just cause it is so colorful and obvious, scared me from harvesting it. So.... thank you for such clarity.
This is a very important mushroom with a long history of various use. It is also the new shroom to micro dose with. I make a tincture of it that I can't keep in stock. It is all about your understanding of it's chemical status and respect for the history it brings along with the benefits it can bring with proper preparation.
He's on Instagrams also on Telegram with..
*Mycopete.*
Not like psilocybin ..you only need a tiny amount..and microdosing is very medicinal for anxiety and depression and PTSD..AM is used to make benzodiazepines
I have a question for whoever could possibly answer, Can a fungus from any type of mushroom actually attach any type of fungus onto a human causing a fungal infection on their skin, or hand, or foot, etc., and if so have any ever been documented.??
Thanks for help Elanor
The old lady was so truthful! The trips is supposed so be for highly advanced trippers
Eating them right now. Fried with onion, after boiling them twice for 20 minutes every time in new water. Amanita Muscaria is tasty 😋 And FYI it’s not my first time 😎
i guess some people can eat it that way .. its best dried
Raven Flight, I’m not looking for psychedelic experience from Amanita Muscaria. There are other shrooms more suitable for it. I heard that some people use tea from dried for half year Amanita Muscaria like an energy drink but it's not my case. I use them as common eatable shrooms to eat.
This mushroom will change your life if used properly.
Well done, very informational and will be looking up NAMA asap
Oh good! Glad you enjoyed it.
please watch Paul Stamins on Ted X, 5 ways mushrooms can save the world, and the Amanita muscaria is amazing, the mushroom world is awesome and that talk on ted talks was such an eye opener.
To all amateurs learning and scouting. Always keep in mind that you could take part in helping solve a cold case if you see any strange mounds,"especially seen in the middle of flat areas that looks out of place," loose dirt, or even sunken in ground, and just poke around a bit.

Have any recommended books?

Hi Sweetheart! Really AWESOME and enlightening video!!! Warm Regards /Gabriel
These during the season are not rare. If your stuck and need to eat, boil for ten minutes with a lot of water. And eat! It could sustain you and save your life in a pickle! Be aware, and gain knowledge if interest consumes you. Don’t just watch one video.
Good high if your stranded too, very useful mushrooms. Deer love it, could help you with hunting deer. Keep an open mind people, just don’t let your brains fall out...food and water is all around you if you are knowledgeable... need water tap a tree or vine, need food? It’s all around you, just need to know how to extract nutrients in order to survive. Stay dry, keep fire and build shelter when the zombies or aliens come.
Learn Your Land is a fantastic resource, especially for the Eastern States.
You need to prepare it properly, but it’s usually consumed as a tea for its psychoactive effects.
78deathface not doing so would be a real waste of this wonderful products features lol
Im in love. Mushrooms and MAGA and the host. Yeszzzzzzzzzzz please 😂😂

I tried them this year for the first time but got nothing at all from them. I.just dried them out. First I had 4 grams as a test dose then 15 grams seems they effect people differently.
It's not a party drug. It increases clarity then makes me take a nap. Just let it do it's thing. If you're expecting to see diamonds and astral projection you'll be disappointed.. :)

Hello yellow Eleanor.I for one am extremely impressed and in like with you.Keep up the good work my darling.
thank you for the great video
Thanks for watching :)
Looking at the question in terms of broad vaguely defined bins is useless, and if applied to mushrooms extremely dangerous and irresponsible. Is fugu edible? If prepared correctly. You can treat anything with a deadly poison as edible if you know how to effectively remove the poison. But firstly the risk-reward is awful (a tasty bite versus brain damage or death). Secondly you don’t even identify the toxic compounds nor discuss how they might be removed. Third there is a lot of myths and antiquated misinformation about the toxic compounds in the popular and even scientific literature that will mislead people. For example there is a myth that drying the mushrooms, boiling in water, or boiling in acid convert ibotenic acid, which is more or less untrue. Ask any organic chemist if boiling an organic compound such as ibotenic acid can decarboxylate it and they will tell you no. Ask them if low pH and boiling will decarboxylate it, and they will tell you no. You need a specific reagent or catalyst to remove a carbon at that specific position. In the literature there is evidence that DMSO, water and heat will decarboxylate ibotenic acid more effectively. In short, if you want to shoot for that knife edge dose between excitotoxic cascade leading to brain damage, and having a a fun “safe” trip; that’s your prerogative as an adult with questionable priorities. But at least get the facts right and know what you’re dealing with.
Ok I need to know how to become a full-time mushroomer :D

Here's the proper way to prepare Amanita muscaria. It gets rid of all the toxic effects and maximizes the benefits. All you really need is one reindeer. Here we go...
1.) Feed the mushrooms to the reindeer.
2.) Wait until it pees.
3.) Quick, collect its pee!
4.) Drink the reindeer pee.

The procedure to prepare it for eating (as in making dinner out of it) will make psychoactive properties inactive, it's not something I feel should be communicated via a RUclips comment though. See article linked in the description to get you started in learning more.

Either it gets you high or it doesnt. Saying it's toxic is a vague expression, like calling a magic mushroom toxic. The word toxic is used as a deterrent word not an explanatory honest discription. That said your body language tells a different story so be honest not misleading, misleading explanations kill.

When I pick them I put them in my dehydrator until dry then I store them away in a jar in a dark place for 3 months then put them in soup,the storing time takes away the sick feeling you get so you won't vomit.
i let them dry out for 2 and a half weeks, is thar enough?
then i made a tea microdose but nithing but giggling and such. no effect, what do i need to correct?
