  • So his funeral mustve been a closed casket? Or did they make a plastecine copy of his head for the coffin?

  • this guy was a douche

  • @quaxk your the fucking douche, if you want to call someone a douche at least say why you idiot

  • God is something we each must find ourselves, it can not be shown to us, only discovered by us.

  • i think he decided he had himself preserved on film/video and that was immortality enough! You think the loser could have least gone through with it!

  • fake! you can see at 2:38 that he doesn't have a neck, nor is there blood emerging from his neck.

  • @MrFerjurowns It is fake yes don't you bother to read the comments below? Watch the film to see more!

  • is calling this poseidon cat names really gonna change his view of things? i dont think so. it seems to me many of u are wasting good drugs yammering about them with a secret service agent get a clue and a stronger dosage.

  • omg. u people saw it with ur own eyes and ur still yammering like a broken record of ethel murmen? wow. he had his head cut and cryonically frozen. his technognostic view of science was that it would find the cure to death one day thru cloning. so he wanted some of his brain and genes to remain viable for at least another 100 years. simple enough to get....right?

  • Beautiful.

  • good riddence to bad rubbish

  • Wait??!! I know the description says that this might be real or might not...BUT IS THIS REALLY REAL!!?? IT LOOKS PRETTY DAMN REAL IN THE VIDEO...I DON'T see any computer animation...This is kinda creepy...but I guess not seeing as he's already dead. RIP TIMOTHY LEARY!!!

  • @eleni93003 I remember recording it off of cable tv years ago...I was totally convinced that was what really happened!...its funny to read now thats it is questionable...

    I too am on the outside looking in ...

  • @sunchilde68 ...I've been really getting into Timothy Leary and Terence McKenna. lately...I love what they preached/taught.Their beliefs..Very interesting gentlemen....So I am convinced that this is real..Leary would do something outlandish such as cutting off his head at the time of his death ....for spritual reasons I take it.?? Or they could have simply made an identical dummy head looking very similar to Leary's. That is one real looking dummy head:)

  • @eleni93003 Yes, I totally agree its very conceivable considering his character as well!

    its what Ive believed for years...and that is most realistic Leary looking head... :)

  • @eleni93003 "The film Timothy Leary's Dead (1996) contains a simulated sequence in which Leary allows his bodily functions to be suspended for the purposes of cryonic preservation, and his head is removed and placed on ice. At the end of the film is a sequence showing the creation of the artificial head used in the film."

  • Coshka77 what a fucking idiot, lsd is made complete in the lab. so how the fuck is it natural go back to school and learn a little about chemistry before you make stupid fucking comments . plus out of all the hallucinogens lsd is the worst for accidental overdose and is prone to cause many different types of psychological problems

  • Comment removed

  • @nevercensord The three safest hallucinogens in the world are Cannabis, LSD and Psilocybin. It would be incredibly difficult to overdose on LSD, as you would have to ingest up to, if not MORE than 12,000µg at once, when the average dose people take is 150µg. It would also cost a ridiculous amount of money to get THAT amount of LSD from from someone. It has also been proven, like cannabis and Psilocybin, that it isn't the cause of psychological problems, but can treat many different illnesses.

  • @SionWeeks obvious you have no idea what you are talking about.....stay off of Wikipedia it does not help your argument . i personally know two people that have psychological problems due to lsd overdose. one is a child hood friend of my cousin. this fellow believes that his huffy bike is the world's fastest and most expensive bike on the planet and believes that he is the son of millionaires, and humps couches while sleeping. he had lsd spilt on his leg.

  • @SionWeeks .........second one is named tippy and is known to all in shelton and olympia wa . Now this guy is homeless and just wanders every where i really cant explain what wrong with him, he walks around with one hand supporting his head which is always cocked sidways ...he does not speak..seems lost like no one is driving ...and this guy got lsd dumped in he drink by fellow football players while a young man

  • @nevercensord I've never heard of lsd overdose

  • Футурама в реальном мире!

  • Looks like the real thing. Other than that I'm pretty much speechless.

  • крутой

  • кто с спасибоевы?

  • @TheLexey97 йа!

  • @TheLexey97 me

  • hahaha,very nice,balls of the playing football))

  • Asshole dont belong on this page..............

  • Oh my god ! Is this real ???? I read the story i'm amazed by this. I'm goin deep man

  • peice of shit told kids to drop out of school and take acid

  • Che out the best tim doc! The lords of the revolution! Finnaly a well diserved doc!

  • @dimidavdad oh. :O

  • It's sad to see so many conspiracy theorists commenting on this vid.

    I'm a Dutchman, so I'm used to marijuana being pretty much legal. I also think that it should be fully legalized here, not to mention in every country. That way the governments can regulate it, make sure it's safe, *and* even make a profit. It's only the conservative idiots holding it back.

    But fully legalizing LSD? It should definitely be regulated, but it's too dangerous for some, as it might trigger an underlying psychosis.

  • what the fuck

  • ha it would be fun to have his head on as a guest on a show. hook it up to sensors and make it crack jokes and stuff.

  • This has to be fake...

  • @RJHarris91 definately not fake haha

  • @dimidavdad Definately is haha

  • but at the same time American culture is doing the SAME exact thing just on the complete opposite end of the spectrum and now in the year 2011, we have an ultimate collision of the two points of view that think they are 'helping' humans become better humans..technology. It really is the ultimate tool of destruction to the human brain and is causing many people to become mindless puppets. Some crazy stuff, I sure am glad that I have the love and guidance of our Creator to lead me.

  • Is this video fake? I mean do they really decapitate his head?

  • he was a head of his time

  • i wonder where he is now.......someone once said "time is shorter than eternity", don't be fooled by the foolishness of this world, judgment awaits those whose hearts have been hardned to truth

  • @nnbako Good words. Some crazy stuff going on these days, people are doing nothing short of getting closer and closer to trying to God. Never gonna happen. What is truth to you? In my opinion truth is not relative, but just wondering. :) Seems like you have a pretty biblical worldview....? That is my stand, I follow Jesus and the teachings of the Bible.

  • @SSPoseidon846 stupid motherfucker what are you even doing here?

  • The first head of Futurama =)

  • LSD = Bad, Cyronics = Stupidity, Hippies = Stupid fucks who think drugs are good.

  • @SSPoseidon846 and your a cocksucker

  • @TheXxnicnacxx Say what you will but I'm not the one screwing up my body. He who takes drugs looses complete control over the mind. If only they really cut off Leary's head and while he was alive for that matter. The word would be so much better without this toxic mess of a narcotic.

  • @SSPoseidon846 hey fuck u u have no fuckin clue if the hippie upriseing didnt happen do u under fucking stand where america would be at ud have a chip in ur arm and no free speach ur a idiot that knos nothin be glad ur idinity is safe on here remeber there is assassins a people like u ...........DIE MOTHERFUCKER DONT SPEAK

  • @shizzlenoits Well you're are obviously high off your head and have no life at all...

  • Comment removed

  • @SSPoseidon846 rather than being rude may i ask why and what are your reasons for this assumption?

  • @jbsmokesalot1 People who take drugs do it to deal with issues rather than seeking proper help. I believe that when someoe takes drugs they lose complete control over their body. I know several people who are on drugs and they are completely different no compared to what they use to be. They have become dangerous.

  • @SSPoseidon846 well everyone is different and and everyone reacts differently and different drugs do different thing, and some drugs are less toxic than other, if you do your research and properly educate yourself on drugs, you will understand it better, why base your entire view on drugs on a few small minded people who decided to make bad choices, and btw i am sure some people have made bad choices with lsd, but look at some of legal substances that intoxicate you, are they any better?

  • His most serious devotees? He didn't have devotees, anyone considering themselves one obviously didn't listen to anything he had to say. Very interesting movie

  • Leary was cremated. His head was not removed nor was he frozen. This was staged for the documentary "Timothy Leary's Dead".

  • @IrishLincoln his body was cremated. and his head was indeed removed.

  • @skyjuiceification Leary had planned to have his head frozen by cryonics, but near the end of his death he made the choice to be cremated instead. His head was never removed. His ENTIRE body was cremated and given to friends and family. A portion of his ashes were shot into space.

  • It's a gamble with nothing to loose. IF the heads [Leary's isn't the only one] remain frozen over centuries THEN it's conceivable that with scientific advance Leary, Robert Anton Wilson's daughter Luna and others may one day wake up in the future. Space Migration, Intelligence Increase, Life Extension.

  • @DeadBull17 wow

  • Truly one of the greatest influential figures in modern history. People should be able to take LSD for therapy and should legalise marijuana. Both are natural and can help many many people. Unfortunately our government is an asshole who thinks only about its own wealth and benefit, rather than the benefit of the people. Sick world we live in. With Leary and Lennon, two of the greatest men in the 1900s. I believe God is psychedelic and why not? We are more than just meat and bones. We are souls.

  • @Coshka77 preach on kinfolk!

  • @lysergicaddict chantge ur name u fuckin loser u give us a bad name fool

  • @Coshka77 LSD is not natural...

  • @alexhavasu its a synthetic analogue of naturally occuring lyserigic acid. ergot fungal derivitive

  • @alexhavasu

    SEMI-SYNTHETIC :D!!

  • @Coshka77 Totally support your views, comrade.

    Especially in this century, in which we live, so many people need help. They are obsessed with "ZomboTV" and forgot about his soul! Rot from the inside and not even notice. Psychedelic extracts - a sip of clean water space.

  • @Coshka77 LSD in not natural :) made by humans for humans ... :)

    i agree that we are something more than meat and bones tho.

    =]

  • @Coshka77 I know Lysergic acid amides occur naturally, don't think D-Lysergic-Acid-Diethylamide (LSD-25) does... though I could always be wrong.

  • @Minorityman1993 Ye you're right, acid isn't natural, though it's more natural than some other lab-made drugs in the sense that it's essentially an extract from special fungi. That's what I meant.

  • @Coshka77 LOL, LSD is NOT natural...

  • this video is trippy. i could never have a job like the surgeons by cutting off someone's head and then putting it into a freezer like that. they must have really strong stomachs to do such a task.

  • so was he high on lsd when they did this? like the other guy who injected himself before dying

  • this video just changed my life...this is the first time i watched about tim leary, speechless...

  • @durtyEmpire hahaha thats so great...he is definitely a very 'heady' individual, and now, you wont forget it lol

  • I did a bit of research, and I don't think this is real. They aren't wearing masks so the head doesn't get infected with germs. Also when you think of organ transplants and how much is involved. It would really be serious business, and a lot of precations

    to preserve and freeze a head. They just sort of saw it off. What about the nerve endings?

  • @butohbaby If you did your research on the Timothy Leary page on Wikipedia, you would have found that this is a scene from the movie, Timothy Leary's Dead, where they acted out Leary's cryogenic freezing using a dummy head. Leary changed his mind in the months before his death, and was cremated instead of frozen.

  • If its not real they should hire these effects guys to do hollywood movies.

  • @Silvertrine It's not real, and yes, these effects guy do Hollywood movies because this was a movie called "Timothy Leary's Dead" directed by Paul Davids. They show how they did the special effects and the fake head at the end of the film.

  • i get real queeezy so i dont know if i should have watched this

  • was that real!?

  • That is one of the craziest things I've ever seen. Great upload.

  • Tim was a fuckin genius. Thats why the government tried to throw him in jaily for 30 years on the highest bail in history for 2 (planted) marijuana joints. wake up peepole

  • @actgif68 thank you very much :)

  • so stupid-the drugs made him lose his mind and head in the end. thats what drugs do to you .

  • @BOGZASV8MA Tim didnt lose his mind. Nor his head. It is not too wise to make or use a blanket statement like "drugs". There are many different apples and oranges and cucumbers in the cabinet. Ex:Fluoride is also a drug, and I bet you drink it with your water or take it in your toothpaste. No offense, but really, the subject is much deeper than I believe you are giving it credit for. Look at the results of LSD therapy on alcoholics for starters, then check out Ibogaine testimonials.

  • @lysergicaddict that arguement is just an excuse to legally kill your brain cells and die like a dog in the end. An interesting part of the arguement is not so much :why the drugs should be legalized? ." BUT WHO AND WHY are SOME PEOPLE are making profits and WHAT SHOULD THEY DO with the MONEY MADE? a farm worker in columbia growing cocoa plants make 1 cent an hour while the CEO dealers make 11 times the profit. AND WHY DO MAFIA DRUG DEALER DO NOT PERMIT THEIR MEMBERS TO TAKE AND ENJOY THEIR DOP

  • @BOGZASV8MA Mafia?=CIA trojan horses making profits along with furthering their agenda, CIA funded the initial floods of LSD.

    Comparing LSD with Cocaine, is like comparing marital sex with a buying a hooker. Everyone dies.I agree on full legalization.TV and Youtube also kill braincells in comparable amounts to NARCOTICS. FYI, many clinical studies have shown that LSD does not kill brain cells,what you do while on it may. Neither will DMT it is a chem found in the brain naturally. READ.

  • @BOGZASV8MA there is a TON of documentation of the CIA trafficking cocaine amongst other HARD drugs. Look into it, sure there are national cartels, but there is a bigger buck behind the beast, look into it, I dont think our opinions at the core differ much at all when the truth be told. :)

  • @lysergicaddict About two hundred years ago, the British were involved in Opium Wars. Trading companies which dealt in opium, tea, and other materials were engaged in a business known then as: "The Gentleman's Trade". Because opium, its salts and alkaloids in both natural and synthetic form became scare during wartime, the government asked the pharmaceutical industry and its chemists to synthesize opiates out of common reagents.Meperidine is one such product and piperidine is readily available.

  • @Nguli34689 indeed. imo, everything should be legalized.

  • @lysergicaddict Yes, indeed! Mark Twain had a supply of morphine for his heart condition. Prohibition brings with it an illicit trade. People who believe the medium always end up getting surprised and shocked. To keep the prohibition going, "acceptable truth" and intimidation is involved. The message Tim gave me was to think for myself. It's better advice than to have a guru think for you. Cannabis should be legal. Alcohol is bad for you in excess. Withdrawal from alcohol is worse than Opium.

  • @BOGZASV8MA you are always on drugs

  • What the "serious-minded devotees" were upset about was that we weren't told what you planned to do with the masks you made.

  • I'm still in the dark as to what is happening here. Was it a hoax or what. Leary was a giant...anyone who can't see that needs to open their eyes. Just read The Politics of Ecstasy and discover what really made him tick. He also had a great sense humour and of the absurd and was one of the first truly fearless psychonauts. His life is a lesson in living in the moment and always searching and reaching for the unreachable. Thanks for posting this bit of strangeness.

  • leary was a genius.

  • death scares me

  • R.I.P Timothy Leary

  • MASTER! NICE FINAL TRIPP AROUND THE EARTH

    ...........

  • MASTER!

  • He was both a thinker and a fool...

  • @Pr4dat0r self admitted... he called himself an idiot-savant

  • que asco!

  • LOL would have been a wee bit more convincing, had the doctors worn masks whilst decapitating.

  • @lysergicaddict

    if u read the Review on that Amazon Link that u left in the description its also written well; the thing with the head & so..

    its this review "AS OUTRAGEOUS & MIND-BLOWING AS LEARY'S LIFE, August 24, 2003"

    thx 4 uploading :)

  • Hope everyone realizes this is NOT REAL, a FAKE video! Leary never had his head cut off. But im sure he would be amused by it all.

  • WTF?!?! :D ! ha! timothy had fun even after his death! :D

  • HOLY SHIT!

  • music id please

  • WTF???!!!!

  • fubar...

  • People say LSD is weird and scary, but I just saw TL having his head cut off, even though hes dead! Man, nothing can be as scary as true life I see here???????

  • @psyimology haha true.... but i this is just a re enactment of his head being chopped off lol

  • @sara3330123

    Sara. This was what happened and outragous and sickning. Makebelive no, this was for real and maybe you just cant hadle the truth of what you see - very frightening to say the least.

  • @psyimology

    It didn't happen. I was there; I know it to be false, and yet the image is disturbing nonetheless.

  • nicepost bro, but no way a snow ball 's hell that even the grateful dead had singed lsd in 95 from dr leary!don't get me wrong it was probbly the best acid u ever had and now this story came out from it.....god bless timmy lol

  • i remember the day he died....i woke up to the radio playng...recovering from whatever it was i had taken the night before, andd the first words i remember hearing were that the good dr leary had died, and it made me very sad..luckily, i had some LSD in the night stand so i took a few tabs in his honor, and had one of the most monumental trips i have ever had, all with his legacy in mind..even though the vid is bullshit, i still remember how the world changed that day

  • wait, can someone tell me what happened to his head after this?

  • the official story is he bowed out of the cryogenic freezing at the last minute, asking to be cremated and the decapitation sequence was simulated. creation of artificial head is shown at end of film. also, 7 grams of his remains were lauched into space in 1997. great, rare film; still worth watching.

  • so wait, that body and head they saw off and stuff is fake?

    what was the point of that part then?

  • apparently, it was fake; just to fuck with us, i guess. i believed it for ten years after seeing the film. honestly, i'm not sure what to believe. the public knows, what it's wanted to know.

  • it went on ebay

  • that's awesome

  • NOW, if we could just shoot margaret thatcher's vile, depraved, typically ugly english head off into outer space.............

  • At the end of the film is a sequence showing the creation of the artificial head used in the film. What you are seeing here is a simulation.  Leary was cremated.

  • Thank you for the correction. fixed the info. Strange, the vhs copy I have does not show that its a simulation. I just figured they cremated his body, but now it all makes sense, thanks again!

  • Holy Mother of All! I just found this video and I've just eaten the San Pedro cactus (my first psychedelic experiment since 4 years ago). I was a bit frightened at first but I got the message. Thank you Leary. And thank you to the person who uploaded this.

    --Felix

  • Leary 4Ever !!!!!!!!!!

  • Oh god damn that was wretchedly nasty, I was not expecting them to show that!

  • wow... i'm happy to be alive!

    It's like aldous huxley who toke lsd before dying.

    But i think is head could ve been buried to.

  • hwy dont they just slap his head on an accident victim or somthing??,lets try it now what the heck,

    good god insane !!

  • Man, why not, i'm not sure that the soul is situated in the brain, but i am positive on the fact that head transplantaions will be made possible in the near future.

    There were already experiments in WW2, the Russians transplanted a small dogs head onto a bigger dogs body, next to his own head, and the two heads responded each in a different way to petting and they even ate differently, i guess science knows no limits.

  • Even monkeys, the only thing they have'nt figured out yet is the spinal cord issue, it's impossible to reconect them once they are sepperated, so the monkey's body was paralysed from the neck.

    Some lived for weeks after, but eventually died, but science never sleeps, so who knows how far they will push it?

  • Type (- Demikhov and - Experiments in the Revival of Organisms(1940) pt1) in the search field of your youtube browser to see some videos about the expiriments.

  • good god man!  insane

  • i dont think homie was that bright

    .too much acid.

  • I beg to differ, I believe the man was nothing less than brilliant.

    Did you know he created the complex and respected interpersonal circumplex model, published in The Interpersonal Diagnosis of Personality which offered a means by which psychologists could use MMPI scores to determine a respondent's characteristic interpersonal modes of reaction?

  • @vajraloka1 you've obviously never tried it, and the only reason people don't try it, they're scared.

    scared of the trip, the experience,scared of opening your mind, scared of addiction, scared of the law,scared of society, and scared of what people think.

  • @sara3330123 you pressume alot...i did more than "try it"----its almost worhtless next to meditation in the exploration of conscioussness. shortcuts are just typical ways of the western consumer mind to press a button and get what we want right away.irregardless of the long term affect, on the environment or to society..so taking chemicals are just an artificial manipulation of nature.violent.

  • @vajraloka1 there's no such thing as "artificial manipulations of nature". Nothing that happens in this universe is unnatural, and all that happens is governed by the laws of nature.

  • @SmilinTunes JUS BECAUSE PHISYICS HAVE LAWS DOSENT MEAN THEY CANT BE BROKE THE RESONE MANKIND IS SO STUPID AND PRIMITIVE IS BECASE WE LIVE BY LAWS THAT ARE MENT TO BE BROKEIN U THINK WHERE THE ONLY LIFE IN THE WHOLE FUCKING UNIVERSE YEA WHERE THAT LUCKY NO NO WHERE NOT QUIT BELIVEING WAT UR TOLD REMEBER NIXON SAID MARIJUANA WOULD KILL U BECAUSE HEMP WOULD TAKE OVER THE CORN TREE CUTTIN CLOTH MAKEING DO SOME RESERCH BEFORE U MAKE THESE STATEMENTS PLZ N TY

  • @shizzlenoits the laws of physics cant be broken..what? when did i say anything about pot? or nixon? what I was trying to say is that it's invalid to ever say something is an "unnatural" manipulation of nature, because anything that happens in the physical universe, weather by human intervention or not, happens as the result of a natural physical process. This includes any manufacturing or synthesis. If you can tell me a situation where that's not so, I'd be interested in hearing it.

  • @sara3330123 IM NOT

    

  • сделано как в футураме

  • Ах да я забыл! ха-ха-ха :)

  • wooow how long ago was this?

  • Dr. Timothy Francis Leary Born October 22, 1920 and died May 31, 1996

    The documentary this can be found in was also released in 96 and the special edition in 97.

  • Leary & McKenna RIP

  • HA...that doctor at 0:57 looks like William H. Macy...

    ...wow...Tim Leary's head...talk about TRIPPY!

  • Probably the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

  • Holy fuck!

    Did I really just saw those docters cut of his head when he blew out his final breath?

    I loved it when the psychedelic animation came up when he died.

    Shit, this was shocking but yet very intruiging at the same time, I wonder if he was still aware of what they where doing with his head.

    I feel kinda weird after watching this though.

  • I'm right there with you friend. Only Leary would want this video put on the internet! It disturbed me a little, so I had to share.

    Was my first time seeing a head cut off at all, and never in a million years would I have thought my first to be Leary. A very special, yet very strange moment in my life for sure lol R.I.P. Timmy!

    p.s. love your avatar

  • r u into lsd?? would like to interview u now and in 20 years from nowd

  • I would be more than happy to do such an interview, but only with a credited doctor so as to make it public knowledge that LSD has many psychological BENEFITS and no long term side effects. Trust me, I know plenty of folks who have been using LSD for over 30 years. None of them are insane, unsane, or awake maybe, but insane? no way.

    read Drugs of Hallucination by Cohen, it gives a great account of the success of LSD psychotherapy that was conducted in the 1960's.

    Propaganda is a bitch.

  • tru dat

  • @lysergicaddict and i bet you are somewhere between 16 and 27...? correct?

  • @lysergicaddict i bet you are between 18 and 27 in age right?

  • he probably hovered over that bed laughing at himself

  • did he seriously have his head taken off ? and cryogenicly preserved!?

    call me a fool - but i did not know this

  • @Musiccalculater no he didnt
