blankfistSince when did weed make people so enthusiastic and bold? That's kind of a 'stay on the couch eating Doritos' kind of drug, whereas PCP is more the 'run into the line of fire laughing about it' kind of drug. I think those spliffs may be laced.
CrosswordsThey're obviously self medicating to kill their anxiety and fear, unfortunately they need that fear and anxiety to help stay alive.
Well its either that or being in a snack food deprived country, bullets are the next best thing. Or perhaps he was using the gunfire to ask if the taliban if they had any nacho cheese in morse code. The return fire indicated they only had cool ranch and there were only a few crumbs left.
Farhad2000That's probably not marijuana but hashish or opium.
antimatterwell. weed increases your visual accuity among other plus and negatives sides, natives in the forest use it to hunt and that's why some people smoked it in nam. And well, take this all as you may, I know a lot of gamers you play better stoned. And you could say it actually increases their paranoia, leading to a certain in-the-zone sense of hightened awareness. But that soldier who almost got shot probably wasn't the best example.
eric3579^I think it depends on tolerance, what your smoking, and in the end, how baked you get.

8296says...Oh yeah. And it probably is opium. Where did this video come from anyway?
vairetubesmokin heroin... it's not expensive when ur dad grows the poppies. they're feelin good and fightin poor and dyin dead.
kageninsays...It seems a lot of you need a lesson in Etymology (the study of word origins, for you anti-intellectual types).
The word "Assassin" comes from the Arabic word "Hashashin," meaning "Hash Eater." That word comes from a group of warriors who would eat copious amounts of Hashish before sneaking into enemy encampments under the dead of night, and systematically killing every single enemy soldier in their sleep.
The high that eating such large amounts of hash provided them with a deadly calmness required for killing their enemies in such a stealthy manner.
I highly doubt that the soldiers in this video are smoking anything other than weed. Maybe it's laced with opium or heroine, but I doubt it. Opium is a depressant, it slows down the reflexes, and makes it hard to do anything other than sleep off your high. Cannabanoids don't work on the nervous system the same way.
Under the Taliban's strict Islamic law, consuming any mind-altering substance is a mortal sin and capital offense. That's why we let them control Afghanistan for so long before overthrowing them - they essentially halted the Afghani Opium and Hashish export. Now that they're not in control, Opium and Hash exported from Afghanistan has started to make a comeback. Not surprising, considering how easy it is to grow Poppies and Cannabis, and how much more you can sell it for compared to food staples or textile fiber.
FadeCannabis is THE warrior drug. African Witchdoctors used to prepare cannabis muti which was then given to warriors before they went into battle. It gave then a focus and single minded calmness that shocked european soldiers.

dystopianfuturetodayI find that partaking of herbal pleasures increases my skill at various types of difficult video games (Halo 3 MP, Ikaruga, Geometry Wars, Magic Pen, etc.). Not only does it calm my nerves, it also leads me to creative strategies that I might not have otherwise come up with.
It leads me to good videos as well. My youtube safaris are always more successful when elevated.
