Can you die from weed?

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

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.

Unless you see this movie, or find out what I'm talking about, you won't know that you're practically entirely incorrect.

you cant die you would pass out long before then

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 Hendrixâ?? 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 1960â??s and early 70â??s. He was a MUSICAL radical, who happened to use certain drugs that he shouldnâ??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

sure you can die but not in overdose... you still might try flying from rooftops .. that could hurt..
