I was reading some post/comments and the term "parachuting" came up. It was described by one as "crushing the pills finely wrapping in a rolling paper or toilet paper and swallowing" I have heard of something similar but it ended up in the "other end" sort of speak. Can you tell me if what I heard was true or BS?
 
I saw that no one has replied to you, hopefully you are checking in and will get your answer.
That is what people mean by parachuting, its a good way to get a substance into your body orally and it can remove some of the nasty taste some drugs have. Also crushed pills can be put into the paper so that it is absorbed faster, due to the greater surface area, than taking the pill as it was initially intended. Im not saying to do this however lol
Just put your stuff in the middle of the sheet of paper, twist it like a candy wrapper, and then rip off the excess, just dip it in a little water to make it go down the gullet easier and chug back with something tasty!
 
Parachuting: Placing a crushed/powder substance into a rolling paper, tissue, or similar object, balling it up and swallowing it. Poor mans capsule, indeed.

Plugging: Rectal administration of a drug. Please see this Megathread and this thread for more information.

Hope this clears things up.

You know its never a term I've ever heard used in the UK, its always called "bombing" where I come from and people almost always use a cigarette rollling paper.

I am blessed with the abiltity to just put the power in my mouth and let is disolve however vile the taste which has always worked better and quicker for me but I think this is down to some meds I was on for years as a child for asthma that tasted awful, Intal Spincaps, I dont think they use them any more
