Ahh, sorry kwiddle :-//

I suppose it's because of the male/female ratio on here - if in doubt the odds are best on the person being a guy!

There will be no confusion from now on though, consider me thoroughly educated! :)

Local teenager seeks great high, nearly wins Darwin award. Fucking moron. Can't wait to see how many morons end up in hospital from datura over the next few weeks after reading this article....



And the mom wants the city to remove the plants. How about people just being smart enough not to do things like this?



From winnipegsun.com (my local news):





A TRUMPET OF DOOM





It's a home-grown, free high that could kill you.



Seeds present in thousands of Winnipeg gardens offer an easy, and potentially fatal, high that landed a teenager in hospital this week.



Debbie Dutka said her son Cory Johnson, 16, ate the seeds of a popular plant called Angel's Trumpet to get high with seven friends.



Johnson downed about seven pods (containing several seeds each) between Monday and Tuesday, said Dutka.



Cory's vision lapsed, his heart rate soared, his pupils dilated and he blacked out for much of a three-day high that followed, she said.





"I was shocked and I had no idea what it was," said Dutka. "These are very poisonous."



She said she rushed Cory to the hospital on Tuesday, after he muttered incoherently and climbed on top of a fridge.



He remained in hospital until Friday with respiratory complications, said his mom.



"His heart went up to 175 and 178, enough to trigger a heart attack," she said.



Dutka said she had no idea the seeds of an ornamental plant could be so toxic.



Angel's Trumpet is a tall, four- to six-foot plant bearing bright blooms up to 15 cm long and a member of the datura species.



Lethal hallucinogen



But its seeds serve as a potentially lethal hallucinogen when ingested.



"It's a very beautiful plant but if I had my way it would be extinct," said Dutka.



Datura species poisoning can cause hallucinations, blurred vision, nausea, delirium, coma and death, according to the Canadian Biodiversity Information Facility, a Canadian government agency.



The teens apparently ripped the seeds off a plant in a city park in Fort Rouge.



"I was just shocked," said Dutka. "It's completely free and it is everywhere."



Dutka asked the City of Winnipeg to remove the plant from city parks and other planters to prevent teens the option of the easy, dangerous high.



She admits her son is to blame for eating the seeds to get high, but said the city should remove the option.



"It was totally wrong that he did that but the city is responsible for having it out there," she said.



Don Budinsky, the city's parks manager, said Angel's Trumpets have been planted for at least 10 years without a hitch.



But as a precaution, city staff began digging out the plants from three other parks Friday afternoon.



"We're removing the plants we're aware of," said Budinsky. "There's literally hundreds of thousands of flowers across the city and I doubt we have a hundred of these flowers planted."



But the hearty datura's seeds can survive winter and sprout again, adding to thousands of Trumpets growing in private Winnipeg gardens, he said.



"The trouble is that they're going to be very accessible in any case," said Budinsky.

175 to trigger a heart attack..... i dont think so my heart rate regularly goes that high when i go to the gym, in fact i have to keep my heart rate between 160 and 180 just for cardio exersizes.



on the topic of stupidity thou, eating 3 pods of datura is sure to fuck any one up. i hope he learned his lession, Reasearch about the drug before you do it.

Dude, that's totally bizarre man, I was just reading a book where a brugmansia tree, a member of the datura family, played a roll... they look like this:

heh they have those in the park near my house, i allmost eat some the other day but decided against is since i had to work the next day.

Sounds very similar to a plant that grows everywhere here in SA

called 'Malpitte' directly translated means 'Mad Seeds'... Oh wait, - it is the same. I've never seen one with flowers though, usually they just have spikey pods, maybe it's from the same family or something :?





best pic I could find

Highly hallucinogenic, my one buddy tried it and... I don't think he ever came back (also ended up in hospital) bad news ppl, avoid like a plague
