For those unaware, jackfruits are huge. They're usually sold in quarters or eighths in US supermarkets. That's already plenty of jackfruit. Then you have to pick out the egg-sized seeds, which has the feeling of performing a C-section. Afterwards, the meat is mild and tasty.

A jackfruit can weight somethin beetween 15kg to 40kg. So, they hit you like a anvil on the way down.

Also the eponymous Brazil nut tree [0], which can be 60% taller than a coconut tree at 160 feet and has fruit about the same size. I heard that they are sometimes referred to as "the widowmaker". They cannot be cut down by law, so areas that have been cleared for farming often have lone Brazil nut trees still standing [1].

They grew more in the north in tropical forests. I think I never saw one in a city.

In the Indian subcontinent, the equivalent statement to “Don’t count your chickens before the eggs have hatched” is “The jackfruit’s still in the tree, don’t oil your lips just yet” since the jackfruit exterior is obviously sticky when you cut it
