One kilogram of fentanyl has the potential to kill 500,000 people.
Any of you guys try this shit yet .... knowingly or unknowingly?
If "YES!" .... Are you dead yet?!
BTW... 1 Kilogram equals approx 2.2 pounds
I introduce this subject because a well-known gym member sorta suspects that fentanyl may be involved within these numerous bodybuilding/fitness deaths we have been concerned with lately.
Any intelligent remarks, suspicions, or personal or unexpected or accidental 'ingestion' by any GetBigger would be appreciated.
I say "unexpected" and/or "accidental" because I have been told by one who is well aware of illegal drug usage (Yes!, from Personal Experience) that it is becoming common to add fentanyl in small amounts to YOUR daily drug purchase, PED or otherwise.
And ... in order to simply save time and effort ..... re-read the first sentence above!
I ask ..... Is this shit possibly involved with these recent BB deaths!?
-
Who’s is killing, drug addicts, whooooooo caresssss!
-
Why would drug dealers knowingly add an instantaneous killer into the drugs they sell? They would run out of clients.
The real question is what is more dangerous fentanyl laced street drugs of the covid vaccine?
-
How many of the recent deaths amongst the big names in the bodybuilding community were actually unexpected though?
Rhodan was kinda a surprise, but then we heard he was having some heart issues, but decided to blow up anyway. He was no spring chicken either.
George Peterson was unexpected, but that was like a day out from a show.
Most of the other deaths Dallas, Porter, Meadows, Bostin, Cedric, were no surprise. Even Stevie Wonder saw those coming.
Cummings is a bit of a puzzler, but we have no info on what happened there. A lot of the other female deaths had Shelby in common.

They’re not trying to kill people but trying to pass of fentanyl as Oxys. Fentanyl is cheap and goes a long way in dosing but these guys are creating tabs in bathtubs so just a minor increase of it in a pill can be lethal

Yeah it's all about money.
There is a lot of profit to be made.

I haven't used it personally but two old friends of mine have died from it and an old coworker accidentally came into contact with it and had to be rushed to emergency.
Fentanyl is no joke. When people die on fentanyl its technically not an overdose because even small doses kill.
There are several high profile instances of paramedics, cops and firefighters attempting to resuscitate people who've taken fentanyl and just the physical contact has caused the responders to fall unconscious.
Recently 2 military cadets overdosed and died. 2 other cadets attempted cpr and those 2 died as well.
Its just flooding in from Mexico. In places like Portland fentanyl has replaced most of the other street drugs. Its cheap, readily available and a little bit goes a long way. In fact in Multnomah county jail the deputies issue Narcan to those getting out on bond because fentanyl overdoses are so common.
Its also used to cut other drugs. A few high schoolers overdosed on it thinking they were using something else.
Whatever happened to weed, acid, shrooms and maybe a little bit of coke?
-
Great question, Dave!
And ... Great answer, El Diablo!
I was 'wondering' likewise .... and I've just been told that 'fin' is so damn cheap, yon can buy it by the "quarts" and "gallons".
I don't understand MG nor KG, so I prefer to think in inches and feets and quarts and gallons ..... But I'm smart enough to realize that I'm far from accurate when measuring drugs and foreign stuff.
And FIN is super cheap and adds a big kick/punch to your drug of choice.
A very cheap way to kick the bucket or get your ticket punched!

No fucking way. That's a tall tale, for sure.

BEAKDOC, Thanks for adding to my shit-list of more shit that I gotta worry about.
Although I'm not a 'druggie' I do live in Vegas and run into many so-called 'druggies'
who need a sandwich or a dollar ..... along with close contacts who make some of our MJ Dispensaries a daily visit .... and although I totally believe that these licensed dispensaries are clean and above-board .... I gotta ask ya ...."What the hell is NARCAN?!
And do I have to go to jail to get it?

I guess I don’t understand. Are they using it as cutting agent?
Flour is a cheap white powder. Deaths from flour overdose is low.
-

Bingo.
It’s another bullshit story. No drug dealers are adding fentanyl to any fucking thing. Total bullshit.
Dope fiends want a cheap high…
They buy cheap and very strong fentanyl…
They OD.
The end.
-
I guess I don’t understand. Are the using it as cutting agent?
Flour is a cheap white powder. Deaths from flour overdose is low.
They are NOT using fentanyl as a cutting agent. Completely insane. Laughable.
Dope fiends are idiots. They want a cheap, long lasting high. They will buy anything.
And NO COKE DEALER would have fentanyl within 100 yards of his Coke supply. If the contaminated Coke didn’t kill their customers, they would lose their customer because the Cocaine would put them to sleep… and good cocaine doesn’t put people to sleep. LOL!
Here’s the deal- I have exceptional connections. You name the drug or other illegal product and I can probably get “some” in a few days… a week at the most. I asked my guy for a gram of pure fentanyl…he just started laughing. Fentanyl is hard as fuck to find. Nobody uses fentanyl to cut anything.

I am certain that Tommy knows his shit, so this is not by way of disagreement. But to an interested observer, there would appear to be an opportunity for large scale drug smugglers to use this shit to drastically alter the risk to reward ratio inherent in this line of business due to 'The War On Drugs' - does there not?
By this I mean, if you are going to risk smuggling large amounts of 'drug X' then you may as well risk smuggling the strongest one. Because that one can be used to make more money by selling to many more people, right? Not necessarily by using it to adulterate other product, but if you could take a gram of this stuff and make 1000 fake Oxys (or whatever) that's vastly more profitable than just reselling the legit stuff - OR - just selling the gram by itself
To put it another way - and I have zero idea of numbers - but if a kilo of heroin makes $ and the same amount of fentanyl makes 50 x $ - why wouldn't you trade the more profitable item? (Risk of death/killing customers notwithstanding)
Exhibit 1
Prince died after taking fake Vicodin laced with fentanyl, prosecutor says. "In all likelihood, Prince had no idea he was taking a counterfeit pill that could kill him," the Minnesota prosecutor said.

Tommy, I always assumed you were in California. But if you want fentanyl come to Portland OR. Its so fucking common.
And here everything is cut or laced with it.
The 2 of the most common street drugs up here are heroin (black tar and brown powder) and oxys are always cut with it now. Its cheaper than heroin so pushers increase their profits by cutting it. Bevause its so powerful overdoses are a daily occurrence.
Btw Narcan is a drug paramedics use in overdoses. It binds to the opioid receptors. Its a non narcotic. It will prevent the drug from binding. I ve seen dopers goe from totally unconscious to totally sober in minutes. And then get pissed because they're no longer high. Ive seen dopers half dead one minute then attacking a paramedic seconds later because the narcan took away their high

Not just Prince but im pretty sure Bowie and Tom Petty too
Im sure Tommy knows what hes talking about but he's seriously misinformed if he thinks other drugs aren't being cut with fentanyl.

Yeah, and maybe I'm using the wrong terminology here, but I think I'm coming at this from the counterfeit painkiller angle more than the cutting of street drugs/powders, etc. A pill press could pump out hundreds of fake painkillers that give the opiate feel much easier than trying to ripoff and resell pharmacy gear, or smuggle legit pharma stuff from other countries already in pill form. Also makes life easier in terms of making the smuggling load more compact/less detectable, even?
I used the Prince example as a public figure example, but the OD figures over here - in Scotland in particular - where fentanyl was identified in counterfeit form has sky-rocketed (I'll try to find a link to the Office of National Statistics report from late last year). I'm sure the CDC in the States would have similar figures..?
-
Quick example - obviously Scotland isn't the US, so the situation may be totally different over there :)
Substance misuse group SMART Recovery Fife has revealed it received an initial alert about tablets contaminated with the opioid fentanyl being sold as Valium in the Cardenden area in recent weeks.
Fentanyl is normally used to treat severe pain, assist with end-of-life care, and is often more potent than heroin.Valium is the brand name for diazepam, part of the benzodiazepine family of drugs that act like a sedative and are prescribed to treat anxiety, alcohol withdrawal, muscle spasms and some seizures.
However, fake Valium pills were linked to a 43% rise in the number of people in Glasgow who died of drugs overdoses between January and October in 2018, while several other Scottish cities have experienced similar problems amid claims that the drugs are becoming “cheaper than chips”.
Drug agency Turning Point has also suggested that many of the tablets are bought online, where 10,000 tablets can be bought for £800, or 8p a pill. Police Scotland previously issued a warning last summer about white tablets emblazoned with the logo ‘Roche’, the number 10 and a half score on the reverse, as most likely to contain fentanyl. Officers warned it can be 10 times stronger than diamorphine and can lead to an increase of overdose and potentially death.

Same with Thunder Bay, Canada, beakdoctor.
Fentanyl is everywhere. It's awful. A long-time local drug lord got arrested in 2012, and replaced by a bunch of Black gang members from Toronto. Whether the situation would have been as bad had he not been arrested, I don't know.
It seems to me this is happening more and more, everywhere. Scary stuff [for those who use drugs].

Quick example -
I think it's most common in pills....
Where the hell is ESF when you need him?

People are ODing on every drug you can imagine because they're spiked with fent over here in the Northeast. But Tommy's a drug expert so I guess I'm wrong and they aren't dead

is fentanyl created relatively recently?

Yeah, I mean I'm not exactly hooked up, but Someone Who Isn't Me (SWIM) found they could buy that sort of shit fairly easily
SWIM made friends with a guy in Hong Kong to - at first - procure fake designer shit. SWIM soon also got offered all sorts of outlandish chemical things that SWIM wasn't interested in. (SWIM was just trying to buy fake Gucci handbags for his Wife)
SWIM was offered literally every-fucking-thing that the Good Lord Post-Communist China could provide

No fucking way. That's a tall tale, for sure.
https://www.pumphreylawfirm.com/blog/spring-break-gone-south-west-point-military-cadets-overdose-on-fentanyl/
Turns out they survived. The story I was told that 4 died but turns out 4 overdosed. 2 attempted cpr and also o.d.'d just from cpr. Ultimatley paramedics and a stay in ICU apparently saved their lives.
West point cadets....
In total there were six people in the group, all in their young twenties. Four of the six had taken a substance they believed to be cocaine; however it became apparent that it was laced with fentanyl, which caused them to go into cardiac arrest. The other two friends attempted to give them CPR on their own before the police were called but were then exposed to the opioid from the contact. The two who were exposed from administering CPR also went into cardiac arrest.

yeah Im sure they od'd from giving CPR and not from doing the same laced cocaine as everyone else lol.
The notion that fentanyl poses a danger to emergency responders is a harmful myth that can lead to delay or absence of emergent care for victims of overdose. Please refrain from spreading this myth in the future. Don't take my word for it, here's the official statement from the American College of Medical Toxologists:
Fentanyl is amenable to transdermal absorption because of its low molecular weight and lipophilicity [19, 20]. Depending on the specific product, transdermal delivery systems (“patches”) take 3-13 hours to produce a therapeutic serum fentanyl concentration and 35 hours to reach peak concentration [21-24]. Absorption of liquid or aqueous fentanyl increases with larger surface area of application, duration of application, broken skin, and heat. The physical properties of fentanyl analogs are similar to fentanyl, suggesting potential for dermal absorption. In a small volunteer study, sufentanil citrate applied to the forearm and covered in an occlusive dressing was absorbed
comparably to fentanyl, although exact bioavailability was not determined [25].
However, incidental dermal absorption is unlikely to cause opioid toxicity. If bilateral palmar surfaces were covered with fentanyl patches, it would take approximately 14 minutes to receive 100 mcg of fentanyl [using a body surface area of 17,000 cm2, palm surface area of 0.5 [26], and fentanyl absorption of 2.5 mcg/cm2/h [24]. This extreme example illustrates that even a high dose of fentanyl prepared for transdermal administration cannot rapidly deliver a high dose./quote]

On the other hand if they die it is cheaper than paying for their treatment... ;D

I think you may be thinking heroin, Tom.
It makes no sense to cut drugs with heroin, as heroin is so expensive.
To the contrary, Fentanyl is cheap as hell, and is being cut into everything around.
This has all happened within the past ten years.

First of all,
Why would the 2 cadets that got it from transfer from cpr have to lie when the other 4 readily admit to what happened? Wouldn't the other 4 'out' the liars? Obviously witnesses also reported what happened and cops investigated it..... but you see through it.
Second,
Your fears that it will lead to delays is frankly absurd. This has been a major problem for the last 5 years or longer and first responders continue to deal with these overdoses everyday. Fortunately the examples of transfer causing adverse effects have been learned from and the dangers are more well known now. As a result its happening less to first responders even though overdoses among drug users continue to rise.
Third your opinion and your article are omitting one thing: the dozens of instances where it has already happened. Not story, not myth but actually has happened and in fact I personally know a cop it happened to. It hardly takes any effort at all to find any of the dozens of documented instances where cops, firefighters or paramedics have had adverse reactions from transfer of contact.

1) they are in the military, drug use is forbidden. Do you not understand the incentive they have to lie about it?
2) agree to disagree, i suppose
3) these incidents arent included bc they aren't real .. its not possible. if you wanna believe a bunch of cops over toxologists and pharmacists, ie real subject matter experts, be my guest. as we know, cops always tell the truth anyways ::)

How convenient. If its contrary to what you believe then it must be a lie. Thats a solid argument. Wow you'll be able to go through your whole life without ever having to truly think anything through.
You have your point. Everyone else is a liar. Excellent.
