22 pills in one night?!?!


Recommended Posts

A little bit of news my friend picked up from www.bluelight.nu. Crazy shit!

Headline :: RAVER TAKES 22 ECSTASY TABS AT GIG .. AND LIVES

A raver at the Creamfields music festival escaped death after taking 22 ecstacy tablets, it was revealed yesterday.

The 24-year-old Dubliner collapsed at last month`s outdoor concert at Punchestown Race Course, but was rushed to hospital after on-site

doctors revived him..

He was kept in intensive care for two nights before regaining consciousness. Dr Shay Keating, who headed the Creamfields emergency

team, told the Medicine Weekly magazine that the man had stopped breathing when he was found.

His temperature soared to 41 degrees and doctors had to inject his face with anaesthethic to open his mouth.

A medical source said "His teeth were clenched together so they couldn`t get a tube into him to get him breathing. It was one of the worst

cases ever seen. His friends told the doctors that he had taken 22 ecstasy pills and it is a miracle that he survived at all."

Dr Keating revealed that if it had not been for the emergency team, the man would have died and two other revellers, who ahad also taken

ecstasy, would have suffered permanent health damage.

He said: "We sent three people to hospital. Two were unconscious from ecstasy and one was seriously hyperthermic, with a temperature of

41 degrees. The man had to be intubated on siteand then taken by ambulance to St James' Hospital. Altough he is now fine, medical

intervention was crucial at the site."

Dr Keating also said the majority of the patients treated at the event, which attracted more than 25,000 people, were suffering from

exhaustion and dehydration - classic symptoms displayed by ecstasy-users.

This story is fucking crazy..I cant believe this...that guy is obviously a fucking moron. Ecstasy doesnt even work when you take too much off it....that guess needs a dose of reality not a dose of E.

Thats amusing. Its also sad that he has the stupidest, most fucked up friends....just the fact that the friend knew he had so much e is terrible. should have gone to the hospital to have the stomach pumped. ive never taken more than 2.5 pills..

22 in one night!!!! Holy shit! eek.gif

2.5 pills is more than enough I would think for anybody. 3 is pushing it as it is.

I can't fathom anyone having the brass balls to drop themselves to obilivion.

I read somewhere that to overdose on MDMA takes the equivalent of about 14 normal pills. This guy was well into OD category. I agree, they almost should have just let him die to improve the gene pool.
