Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
Hey, I just baught that movie, like, a few days ago. It's pretty fuckin' trippy.
But anyways, about the "Adrenochrome" stuff.
I don't really think that it is possible. We just got through doing the endocrine system in Psychology AP.
So now what are you thinking? WTF would Adrenochrome (from this point onward, Adrenalin) do to you? Well, it would probably do not much to anything. It would go into your stomach first, and then there is the possibility that it would be absorbed there, but if not, then it would be absorbed by your small intestine. This would take a while, because it would actually have to get into your bloodstream and go to your brain. Plus, it is doubtful that your brain would even recognize it as your own, and, in fact, start attacking it as an invader. We'll just say, for shits and giggles, that it actually got into your bloodstream, and into your brain, and your brain started treating it as "self". It would probably make your heart start beating really fast, increase your breathing/metabolic rate, dilate your eyes, make you start sweating, your blood would pump faster, etc. It would not be pleasant. Plus, seeing as how he took 3 hits of it and then drank, like, half the bottle, he should have died. His heart would have probably exploded. But, I believe that the story of Raoul Duke is a real one. There's a book. So I dunno.
Oh, and...
in the movie Dr. Gonzo says the only place to get this drug was from extracting it from dead people. ~XTC
P.S. But in all seriousness, I wouldn't try to do this without speaking to a licensed neuroscientist, even if you wanted to experience a "fucked-up trip". It's just not safe.
P. P. S. As for ether, it used to be used to dull pain during surgury. This practice was discontinued because if you used too much, they'd die. If you used to little, there is the off chance that they would wake up mid-surgury. Which nobody wants.
So yeah, I hope it helps!!Hempamasta Reviewed by Hempamasta on . Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas Just wondering if this is possible to do. I am not saying I would ever do any of these but I am just curious is all. If anyone has seen the movie listen in the topic, then you must remember when the two characters huff pure ether. Has any known anyone who has done this/ who has personally done it. ANother weird drug they took was Raw Adrenlin(spelling?) in the movie Dr. Gonzo says the only place to get this drug was from extracting it from dead people. Is this even possible. Rating: 5
