50 dead stoners! :1orglaugh

Yes, it is possible. I've done it. :( Luckily it is extremely rare and difficult to do; almost impossible from smoking alone. Was he smoking AND eating it (like in brownies)? Almost all overdoses are caused from eating and digesting too much. :warning

'

I am high as miosuderstood what you wrote I deleted the post It was ridiculous I am really high man. I am playing <3 haha


Ketamine! I love that shit. although I wont do it no more. my boy did a fucking 1/4 vial one night he was puking while laying in a k-hole for 30 mins. I felt bad for him it was uncut. we used to get vcials and cook em up in his appartment.

shut up.

thats not an overdose, thats eating too much. you can throwup from smoking cigarrettes too fast.

SURGEON GENERALS WARNING:
ANXIETY AND MARIJAUNA DOES NOT MIX. If you are a victim to anxiety, please do not smoke marijauna cause you are most likely to have a huge panic attack and kill people .

not possible.

in a teast done by US government you have to injest 40,000 times the amount to overdose.

why do you people consistently battle scientific facts even provided by the government?

hahaha

Q: Has anyone ever died from smoking marijuana?
A: No; not even once. American Judge Francis Young studied all the evidence in 1988, and ruled that "marijuana is far safer than many foods we commonly consume." The federal agency NIDA says that autopsies show 75 people per year are high on marijuana when they die, but this does not mean marijuana is a factor in any of their deaths. Deaths per year from: tobacco=340,000-395,000 Alcohol (not including accidents)=125,000+ Drug overdose (prescription)=14,000-27,000 Drug overdose (illegal)=3,800-5,200 Marijuana=0

there have been thread after thread on the net about this, no need for another

saying you can overdose on marijuana is like saying you can overdose on lycopene in tomatoes or ketchup

:1orglaugh

no it just doesnt happen

8. At present it is estimated that marijuana's LD-50 is around 1:20,000 or 1:40,000. In layman terms this means that in order to induce death a marijuana smoker would have to consume 20,000 to 40,000 times as much marijuana as is contained in one marijuana cigarette. NIDA-supplied marijuana cigarettes weigh approximately .9 grams. A smoker would theoretically have to consume nearly 1,500 pounds of marijuana within about fifteen minutes to induce a lethal response.

9. In practical terms, marijuana cannot induce a lethal response as a result of drug-related toxicity.


READ PEOPLE.

these idiots who puke are NOT OVERDOSING.

its scientifically not gonna happen

If he almost died he was probably allergic or sensitive to it.

:thumbsup

In case anyone wonders why pot is illegal...

http://www.jackherer.com/

DuPont and other corporations paid off the US government in the 30's.

As usual great links to the truth by those in the know.

trade beans?

THC is a toxin, and your body can only handle so much of any given toxin at any given time. If you ingest too much at a time your body will shut down and you can die.

What about this doesn't make sense?

People here are confusing lethal overdose with a non-lethal overdose. Many overdoses are non-lethal.

"The therapeutic ratio (an index of the drug¹s safety) of marijuana is not known, because it has never caused an overdose death, but it is estimated, on the basis of extrapolation from animal data, to be an almost unheard of 20,000 to 40,000. The therapeutic ratio of a new analog is unlikely to be higher than that; in fact, new analogs may be much less safe than smoked marijuana, because it will be physically possible to ingest more of them. "

Because its impossible to ingest the amount required to kill you by smoking pot. What about this doesnt make sense?

THC is NOT a toxin

You can get nausated if you get a big hit of high grade pot
but that is not overdose. I have personally become sick and dizzy for 10 min or so after a bong hit of Maui some 25 yrs ago so I believe some may think they have witnessed overdose symtoms.



I followed fletches link to the article from the uk claiming 1 overdose death.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.../ixportal.html

Its pure drug war propaganda. He does not say pot killed this person only that he died while involved with criminal activity..


"He recorded a verdict of death by misadventure because Mr Maisey had died while taking part in an illegal activity. The death led to a warning about the changing strength of cannabis"

Notice the words "llegal activity" and "warning about the changing strength of cannabis"


This guy just died. People just stop breathing every day. Its not unusual for people to just stop living.

Reporting that Todays pot is stronger than it used to be is just one of many lies used in drug war propaganda .

I give up.

Arguing with potheads is pointless.

LoL. It does seem that way sometimes, especially if you argue AGAINST weed. The most common excuse is "if weed is illegal, so should alcohol". But thats a different discussion.:)

he was not alergic to it, because he had smoked it before. He said he went into a "coma" like episode, where his life flashed in front of his eyes, and he nearly died.

Fletch, I know he is not lying to me, there were 3 other people there, they all confirmed it. He told me the only thing he did differentyly this time was he drank 1 beer before hand. I am thinking the only other possibility was that he has a panic attck? but he has NEVER had a panick attack before, so he rulled out that possibility himself.

:eek7

Wrong dumbshit, it is a toxin.

sounds like everyone is a pro on pot.

I answered you with fact, you reply with opinion.

:thumbsup

it was not the marijuana, it must have been laced or your friend had a reaction.

as i said in the post above this.

its quite simple.

:thumbsup

The only time I've ever had a panick attack was while stoned. My heart pounded really hard, I became very hot, everything became bright, I turned white, and passed out. Luckily I was with a friend who called an ambulance, I went to the emergency room, and spent the entire weekend in the hospital. They couldn't find anything at all and finally decided it was a panic attack (my ONLY panick attack ever). Pot can raise your heart rate and there is an increased risk of heart attack within the first hour of smoking. I am still very pro-marijuana, although I haven't smoked since.

Fucking dupont...

Wanna know why "CFCs" were banned from aerosol cans years back....we'll, Dupont lost the patent on it and couldn't get it renewed...it had very little to do with the ozone layer.

hmmm, this sounds like it may have been the case? because he told me he had NEVER had a panick attack before, so if your saying you had your only one on weed as well, well, that could be it. thanks for the info.

I've not only had anxiety attacks smoking, but have hallucinated too SMOKING THE SAME SHIT EVERYONE ELSE WAS SMOKING from a trusted source . . . and I was the only person having auditory and visual hallucinations.

*****

I'm not saying you can OD or die from it, but for people who've never had anxiety attacks before (which I hadn't) it definitely FEELS like you're going to have a heart attack.

It sucks that people cannot present a balanced view on pot because the anxiety was WORSE for me the first time it happened since I was totally unprepared for the possibility of such a bad experience. Knowing now how many people experience anxiety when they smoke it seems fucked up that this information isn't out there to prepare people.

Like lots of drugs different people can have totally different experiences (ex. give speed to someone with ADHD, and watch them mellow out). Again, I'm not saying you can die from it but it doesn't have to be laced with anything for someone to have a freaky reaction to it.

Nice to read this thread and hear that I'm not the only freak! :thumbsup
