If you try to walk inside of it, it'll hurt you and also entrap you, but passively standing in it won't hurt you. Aye, think blackberry briar, which is the most common type of briar. Maybe Mevans could consider to create a variant of berry bushes called briar bush that will have geometrical characteristics like oak shrubs but occur in large clusters spreading out over larger surfaces. I can imagine these consisting of two types of bush blocks: one with berries (= the type already present in the mod) and one general briar bush block with the same base texture as the bare berry bushes, but without the ability to grow berries. The base block for briar bushes would be the briar bush block and at the edge / surface of the briar bush structures (consisting of multiple block, similar to the oak shrubs) the regular, berry holding berry bushes will spawn randomly, at a rate of 1 in 8 of all edge / surface block being replaced by berry bush blocks. The briar bush blocks will look the same as stripped berry bush blocks but have the properties you describe: briar bush blocks hurt a little less like thistle when you move through them and slow you down like cobwebs, and you sink in them.

This reminds me of a proposal I made regarding holly bushes and trees. Can't resist referring to it. ;)
