i was wondering if anyone has died from smoking either to much weed or a body being alergic to weed. I know sometimes people have panic attacks.

It takes about 400 grams, depending on strength and smoking method, to overdose on weed.

One way to die off weed is to inhale a big hit and then hang yourself.
You couldn't even drown off weed.

I have heard that you would have to smoke pounds of weed within a 2-3 hour period (not physically possible) to OD lol but leave it to some moron with some seeds and a sick fetish for death to try it...im sure someday some tweaker fuck will suceed lol

Well you can OD on water and water is natural...of course you would need to drink a few gallons before that would happen so it would be difficult :p basically anything that exists or is eaten can kill you IF taken in large enough quantities

It is pretty much impossible to die of a THC overdose. You'd have to consume so much that it simply isn't practical.

There's always the obvious fact that people can, and often will, do stupid things while high. Some of which may be fatal. That's the result of your stupidity though, not from a chemical interaction with your body.

The closest thing to a weed overdose would be a hreat attack brought on by an increase in blood pressure anb/or possible anxiety attack which would increase blood pressure more. This would really only be a concern if have a pre existing heart condition, however. More a result of a problem you already have than of your smoking.

I heard a person would have to smoke 4 acres of pot to overdose, at once. Who knows, but a person shouldn't worry about ODing on pot or dying from it. People use it as a medicine for a lot of different diseases. It is much safer that alcohol, tobbacco, and prescription drugs. No worries :cool:

Keep tokin!

HU-210
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HU-210

HU-210 is a synthetic cannabinoid that was discovered around 1988 in the group of Dr Raphael Mechoulam at the Hebrew University. HU-210 is 100 to 800 percent more potent than natural THC from Cannabis and has an extended duration of action. HU-210 is the (+)-1,1-dimethylheptyl analog of 7-hydroxy-delta-6-tetrahydrocannabinol. The abbreviation HU stands for Hebrew University.

I bet you could do it with that stuff.

It's actually probably easier to overdose and die from water than it is smoking pot. Me and a few of my friends tryed killing ourselves on pot once. Well, it was more of a joke, but my friend got fronted a QP to sell once, and the guy who sold it to him suddenly dropped off the face of the planet (probably got busted), so we decided to see if it was possible to die from weed. We barely made it through and ounce in the entire day, and I'm still here to talk about it.

IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO DIE FROM WEED, UNLESS YOU'RE A MORON.

i think anyone trying to OD on tokin' could only succeed if they smoked so much that they puked and then face planted in their own puke. or if you were standing on a bridge ledge and smoked till you lost balance.... ^_^

wtf? ok please explain how 2 people can get through 3 POUNDS in 4 days...that would be 48 ounces and that equals aproximately:

2688 bowls if - 1 bowl = .5 grams (2 bowls per gram)
Even at 1 bowl per gram thats 1344 bowls
if you skinned up 2 gram joints you would have smoked 672 joints
if you made 3 gram blunts your still looking at 432 blunts

...so please tell me how you supposedly pulled that off :D

youd pass out before you ever smoked enough to kill you.

i have heard that someone took such a fat rip once it flipped his lungs inside out and killed him. but this was off a 6 foot bong supposedly.

ermitonto
09-08-2005, 06:06 AM
Flipped his lungs inside out? I wasn't aware that was a real medical condition, or even physically possible. That's gotta be BS.

Weed, it seems, cannot kill you directly. You would have to smoke a whole field of weed to overdose on THC, and the only way you could really die is if you decided to do something extremely stupid like tightrope walking while wrecked out of your skull. In which case, you're a moron and we can blame the death on natural selection rather than weed.

Come on Killa, give the guy a break. It could of happened. If they didn't sleep at all for the four days and smoked one bowl every 2.14 minutes they would have gone through the 3 lbs.

My question is where is a 15 yo kid gonna get the money to smoke 3 lbs in 4 days?? :o

That works out to something like 200 grams per person per day, a little over a quarter an hour, if you don't sleep. I guess if if it was really bunk pot, and you were spun out on meth, it could be done, but no one ever would. My guess is the lethal dose is quite a bit less than some of you guys have suggested, but it really dosen't matter, you would pass out long before you got into the danger zone.

Goodman3eb
09-09-2005, 09:10 PM
I've always heard 24 pounds in 24 hours, but I could be wrong. Anyway, that's 672 ounces, which would make about 672 grams of pure THC oil. If you could smoke that much, mucho props, but I doubt anyone could or would.

For what pourpose do i have to lie??? you don't even fucking know me. and yes we did smoke all that. and no we didn't sleep. It wasn't the greatest weed and all we had to smoke with was a bong (6" Grafix) we didn't watch any tv. all we did is stay in his basment for 4 days in a lil ass room and said, " where not goin to do anything excpt eat and shit until all 4 pounds are gone" so the adventrue begun and ended in 4 days. i don't know if you calling me liar or what but if you don't like what i post then read the fuck on.

Jimi OD'd on wine, but the same way you can on water.
They held him down and poured it down his throat. The medical examiners, in England, found massive amounts of wine in his lungs. You can't possibly drink too much so liquids will fill your lungs.

Hendrix wanted to be buried in England, yet his body lays in Seattle.

That is entirely incorrect.
Yes he had a drink also sleeping pills.
Actually cause of death was inhalation of vomit.

The autopsy showed Jimi's system contained nine sleeping tablets of Vesparax, small traces of another barbiturate Seconal, and twenty milligrams of amphetamine. Contrary to some popular stories that have evolved since Jimi's death, no needle marks or other signs of hard drugs were found. In fact, a leading forensic scientist said at the time that the dose of sleeping pills was too low to be fatal in itself. The official cause of death rendered was "inhalation of vomit due to barbiturate intoxication".

Wonder if he did weed too ... j/k lol

The OD level for weed is second only to LSD, and that's somewhere (far) over an ounce, but I forgot the exact amount. That doesn't sound like much, but the average dose is 200 micrograms, which is .2 grams.

If I am to die, I want to die after drinking a liter of pure LSD.

Y'know, Aldous Huxley (an author, for those young'uns and/or ill-read folk) died with an IV of pure LSD draining into his arm for a couple days, and he didn't OD.

Huzzah for tangent thoughts!

Now, go back to saying what's been said 30-odd times already.

Nine sleeping pills would've been nothing to him. These two twins (Allen is their last name) said when other people were dropping and getting all stoned, Jimi was there dropping one after another.

Kathy Etchingham and some guy opened up an investigation in the 90's, where the ambulance men and the emergency room physician said that they were never interviewed during the inquest into his death.

There's a movie called "Jimi Hendrix: The Last 24 Hours" and it explains it all, but they found massive amounts of wine in his lungs and explains how he was on a list to be put in a 'detention camp' in case of a national emergency.

The answer is simple . . . NO
You would have to smoke (I belive its) 4 times your own body wheight in MJ in a period of like 3 hours. It's not humanly possible. Like stankystank said . . .

Someone find a video clip of this. Or at least a guy walking around stoned and almost wandering into traffic. Either one would be hilarious (in it's own way, you can splice the tape and throw a dummy into traffic).

Zarathustra, you've confused milligrams (mg) with micrograms (mcg). Acid is measured in micrograms, and 200 mcg is two strong tabs. Therefore, a dose of acid is 200 mcg = 0.0002 grams-- or 1/5,000 g.

I don't know anything about these charges, and I have not seen the movie. I was always under the impression that Hendrix?? death was accidental. I can say one thing: Jimi Hendrix was a former Paratrooper who was honorably discharged from the military. I don't think that he was in Vietnam, but he was known to be MUCH more conservative than his peers regarding the Vietnam war - but, like many Americans, he is believed to have eventually changed his mind regarding the U.S. involvement in 'Nam.

This man was far from being a "radical", when compared to many other people in the entertainment industry during the turbulent 1960??s and early 70??s. He was a MUSICAL radical, who happened to use certain drugs that he shouldn??t have messed with.

I'm interested in the movie, and will see it when I can.

The movie also explains that Hendrix was discharged for 'homosexual tendencies'. Also, you learn more and more of how his death seems to be from the hands of gangsters.

LOL that would incite some comedic protests :D but yes believe it or not you can die from drinking too much water, the normal human body would vomit before coming close to the lethal amount...maybe we can genetically engineer a test-tube baby with no gag reflex and test it out :eek: then we can make a twin who has like 4 lungs :eek: sorry I'm turning into a mad scientist haha :D Just so everyone knows; the only reason you would ever die from water over-dose is if you drank so much that your blood was diluted to the point where it could not carry enough oxygen and/or nutrients to your brain...even at that point you would still have to drink another gallon or so before you were at the point of no return. I would venture an educated guess that the same is true for cannabis, you would have to intake so much THC that your brain cells would slowly deteriorate to the point of mental retardation (due to a lack of oxygen over a long period of time) then I guess its a matter of coincidence; ie. too stupid to swallow his/her saliva eventually causing suffocation, faints into the toilet bowl etc. :D

Holy moley! Jimi Hendrix got to leave the Army because he convinced the shrink that he had ?homosexual tendencies?! He had originally joined the service because he had been arrested for riding in stolen cars in Seattle, and thus avoided jail time.

Maybe Purpe Haze should have been named Purple Gays! Foxy Lady could??ve been Foxy Davy. Love or Confusion ?? I don??t even want to go there, lol.
