Man died after taking 15 ecstasy tabs

^^^ many people in the UK take 4 pills in one go. I know of at least 10 people who quad drop on a regular basis. I know one person who dropped 600mg of mdma powder in one go. Granted these people get really, really fucked up, but they don't die.

Obviously 10 people is hardly anything to go on, but I suspect this type of behaviour is not that rare. And you don't hear of very many deaths from e.

No it's not that rare, i know people who have been known to drop 5 at once. I think it's stupid, but it's up to the individual at the end of the day...
 
see its stories that that which drive me insane...you wouldnt take fifteen paracetamol in four hours so why the hell would you take fifteen pills of unknown quality?and then everyone sitsthere and says yea this highlights the dangers of exstacy...no it doesnt, it highlights the dangers of being an idiot with no common sense and even less self control

Maybe they had adulterants or some MDxx mixture in them.

Exactly. If those were speed balls with a tiny bit of MDMA, the media/government would still say he died from MDMA.
 
what if 14 of the pills were bunk, and he only died from one dose of E? hmm??

oh the possibilities...

what if 5 of the pills contained DXM which prevented sweating, which lead him to overheat and die.?
 
I took about 18 big #1's (100% MDA) in less than 24 hours. boy am i lucky to be alive ;/
 
I've taken 17 pills in 3 days and a gram of some good speed. What people from the states don't understand is that pills are EVERYWHERE in the U.K. A lot of people dont pay more that a £1 a pill. There is also a different culture over here with regards to E. Almost everyone I know that has had it, have gone on mad binges. Also I used to get cravings with E, which meant that i couldn't stop taking them till i ran out. And if there a £ a pill, that means its gonna take a long time to run out
 
That's the thing, e is all over the place in England, even young teenagers (usually 14 and above) can easily get there hands on it for very cheap prices, sometimes as low as 50p a pill, no wonder why You get idiots like this taking 15 in such a short amount of time. Disgraceful lol.

You have a good point, there isn't any reliable data for humans. I'm not sure about as low as 1-2g though... at least not the lower end of that range. If the LD50 was approaching 1g, then the LD10 could easily be in the zone where loads of people would be dropping dead each weekend (i.e. from eating 4 or 5 good strength pills or something like that) which we know isn't the case.

However, if the LD50 was a bit higher, like 4 or 5g, then I could maybe see the LD10 being a couple of grams, and this guy might have found himself in the unlucky 10%. Although there may have been other contributing factors too, like if he'd been drinking earlier in the evening etc.

Like theDEA said, all at once vs spread out will increase the chance of accute overdose.

Also.. 5.3mg/ml blood= 5.3gram/liter blood and say, 5 liter blood means 26.5gram MDMA.. Am I calculating something wrong here, or do 1gram+ MDMA pills exist? lol
 
Because pills are so cheap here and also because there's some idiotic culture in which people try to look the 'hardest' by having the most drugs. Which isn't what drug using is about, especially with a drug like ecstasy.

seriously, all of a sudden im hearing of people doing like 30 pills in a week!? glad i quit when i did.. just in time
 
^ Ive done 38 in a (4day)weekend but I seriously doubt its because of tolerance etc

I think most pills are just weaker here.(Glasgow, UK) even on my first time taking them the first 3 pills only affected me a tiny bit (and I waited the full time for them to kick in) first time I took 8
 
who the fuck takes 15 of any pills(non-opiate)? I live in philly and i've gotten pills that are cut with tryptamines or phenethylamines. so i stay away from it unless a girl i'm with offers me some

Did you plug all of them? =D
 
Not that i want to know personally anytime soon but i wonder how that guy must've felt before he died while on those pills?

Anyhow, people who take that many pills just don't understand E.It's disrespectful to the drug aswell as themselves.You shouldn't need that many.If you do, then you've been doing E far too often imo.It ruins the magic of the drug.

I'm going to look at it from another point of view here.People have been criticising this man for being stupid, and rightly so, but would this happen if there was more education about the drug?I don't think so.Anyone agree?It's time for the Government/media to stop using scare tactics and to educate people on this.

I once had someone come in to my college a couple of years ago and she was using blatant scare tactics,i was having none of it however and she looked a bit shocked i have to say.These kind of people piss me off, and they're the people who make us curious without really informing us about them, and as a result they cause these deaths.
