You Ever Hear About the Toad?

Captions provided by CCTubes – Captioning the Internet! The story of the first time Mike Tyson smoked the venom of the Sonoran Desert Toad.

Every detail that appears within is based on Tyson’s own words + interviews with people who were present. We tried to remain as faithful as possible with our adaptation.

*An earlier, abridged version of this short appeared as a recurring segment on the “Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson” podcast. This is the first time you can see the final film in its entirety.
