Body size and high

[Voxide]

Does body size have an influence on how high you might get, even with no tolerance?

 

[rollmeover]

i believe body weight does have an effect
i have 2 friends that are severly obese, im sure most americans know someone like this, there about the same size peter from family would be in real life, there really big, maybe up to 350-400 pounds
for their first time, one of them took 2 really dense milkshots, and the other took 3 small bong rips, neither of them got considerably high for the amount they smoked. if that was me my first time, it woulda knocked me on my ass
i remember hitting a tiny acrylic bong in my early smoking days, nothing even comparable to the glass on glass diffused ice notched bong my fat friends were hitting, and i took a bitch hit and coughed it out and still tripped out

and has anyone ever smoked out a kid below the age of 15 whos small and thin, ive only done it 3 times because every times the kids swear theyve been killing half ounces of "purple kush" every other day, but when it comes to them taking a toke of kush with me, they all tripped out after the smoke made contact with their lungs, even though the tokes were so small you woulda swore they havent smoked anything in their lives

so yes, i believe that body size does effect how high someone gets,

Hard to tell, but I honestly don't think weed tolerance is that much weight based. I've been getting blazed for years with people 50-70 lbs lighter than me and the subjective experiences are not to far off.

I think one may take a larger smoke volume per hit if their lungs are bigger but it's likely to be relative considering all factors, but tolerance is also massive, in the right conditions I can toke as large as my most seasoned friends but I have to earn it, smoking bowl after bowl in a bong for the whole day, then come night time I would make claims of being able to shred a half gram or maybe even more at once. Depends how painful one directly finds it vs how much pain they are willing/used to taking.

a friend of mine has been smoking with me almost daily for the last 3 months. she weighs 95 lbs and is 5'2.5" and her tolerance has not passed more than a hit or two. she'll be blazed off her ass from just that. i on the other hand have to smoke a bowl or two. likewise, she'll eat one bite of a brownie and get stoned whereas i have to eat 2 of these brownies and i'm 155 lbs and 6'0". i'm completely sure weight does make a difference in initial tolerance. though i have been smoking regularly about a year more than she has.

I'm guessing it does. I'm a pretty big guy, 6'4 and 275 pounds, and I've always had a fairly high tolerance. Granted, it's much higher now than it was before, I could blaze through a quarter a day if I had the money, but even starting out I could smoke a gram to myself in a session.

I have no tolerance to weed (haven't smoked it in 4-5+ months) but recently have started and I'm no longer an "easy bake" (although I was never really 'that much' of one to begin with).

I'm male, 115lbs and around 6'0". It takes me 1-2 bowls of good weed to get me as high as a few hoots used to, whereas my friend who is approx. 200lbs and 6'2" gets as high (if not higher) off 1-2 hoots.

I have no idea.

I agree with the those that said it's more about tolerance. I am 6'6" and 230 lbs, I can take one swat and be high as hell because I haven't smoked in so long. At the same time, I remember one of my friends that was less than 100 lbs could smoke rip after rip and seem perfectly fine.

I've seen similar things about gender. I'm not really sure if it matters, to be honest...my tolerance is massive, I'm one of those people that can go all night, and for the sake of numbers, I'm 5'2, about 125 lbs, and female. I have friends far larger than me who get high much faster, but I feel like the people I know who are really large, like 6'6 or above and big built, seem to need more than an "average" sized person with any substance.

If someone could find something cited somewhere, that would be cool...wonder if anyone checked height and weed or if it's like the gender thing which clearly hasn't anything to do with it (as far as I know)?
