i meant to post this on here but i think i just posted it on another comment i had from earlier.
 
Don't know probably if you show your face, but I struggle to understand your motivation behind doing it. If you want some some narcissistic supply do something worth watching.
 
Guess you haven't been reading the news much lately, lemongaga. Numerous people lately have been arrested for the things they do in videos posted on Facebook and YouTube. An illegal act is an illegal act, whether you get caught in person or stupidly put the video up for millions to see.

http://www.alafista.com/2010/10/17/man-arrested-after-posting-speeding-youtube-video/ Just one example. I'm sure you could find more via your favorite search engine.
 
^^^It was just answered that yes you can get in trouble for doing that and you say if you wanna do it go for it!? Why would you say this to someone. So OP don't go for it if you wanna do it, you've been told that you can get in trouble so don't do it!
 
I see no sense to it. Even if you didn't get in legal trouble keep in mind that anyone and everyone can see it, certainly they have some family, or friends, or employers that don't need to know about it.
 
Don't bother mate. If you are trying to look cool on youtube you probably won't get past 10,000 views before youtube bans it.
There is also the chance of police seeing the video and you getting in trouble (not cool).
I am guessing you are in high school or something and I promise it won't seem as cool a couple years down the line when peoples only memory of you is "that guy who made youtube videos of himself doing drugs"
 
Okay thanks. probably not the best idea. I'm 22 . Thanks for judging me Blode

your going to get judged by many if you come to this site asking the kinds of questions your asking.

besides i think he gave you good advice. he could have just told you that you were an idiot.

im 23, when i was in high school i probably would have done something like what your talking about, but not now. so i say, fair judgement.

as someone else mentioned, for get the cops.... id be more concerned about my family, friends, employer, people from school, and many more people seeing it.

expect a little criticism when asking these questions
 
No law enforcement is going to go through the trouble of tracking you down and arresting you just because you posted a video of yourself using drugs.

But for the sake of argument, let's say they do track you down and get you in court. How will they prove it wasn't staged? An act? Fake prop drugs?

If you can get convicted for posting a video of yourself doing drugs, then Al Pacino should be in jail for all the "coke" he snorted in Scarface.

Edit: I don't mean to preach, but remember a YouTube video of yourself doing drugs could come to bite you in the ass one day. But then again you could just use the "I was young and stupid" excuse.
 
I dont see why people bother in the first place. They're only giving more discreet drug enthusiasts a bad name.
 
technically speaking a video of you doing drugs on youtube would probably not get you in trouble directly. But if you got into trouble in another way the video could possibly come back to haunt you.
