I believe that in the past year or so, three tourists have killed themselves while on mushrooms, and one killed his dog.
The problem is that more and more tourists are going to Amsterdam to get completely wasted.
Most of them have no experience with (Dutch) drugs, so they'll start drinking, smoke some weed, drink more, eat some spacecake, drink yet more, and eat mushrooms - all at the same time. Unsurprisingly, many of them end up more wasted than they had intended, or could even have imagined.
Being Dutch myself, I honestly find it somewhat pathetic. Visiting other countries merely to use drugs seems utterly pointless, as well as rather childish.
