LSD Experiment: Research on Acid Trip Effects and Art Drawing - CIA Documentary (1955)

[rhysoid]

This is Roger Federer taking LSD. He went on taking LSD and gained a swedish accent and became the best tennis player of all time

[MrGhostblood]

Once you realize and accept that a bad trip is just as beneficial as a good one, then you'll lose any kind of nervousness you have about dropping. People spend too much time worrying about whether their trip will be good or bad. That kind of thinking can screw it up before it even starts. All trips, good and bad, are bringing you close to a break through. Look at it like a learning experience and just go with whatever it hands you. You will come back.

[thehanz123]

@MrGhostblood yeah your right. but dont ever say that is horse shit when it comes to someone with anxiety or bipolar or phicosis or anything.

your fuckin horse shit if you believe a skitzo can take cid and nothing will be wrong with them.

it says on every forum not to take it if you got problems.

you always hear about people taking cid and "them never coming back". dont underestimate the weak mind, thoughts will multiply and change your life forever.

fuckin horseshit...

[MrGhostblood]

@thehanz123 There is absolutely not one confirmed case of anyone taking LSD and not coming back. I would give a skitzo LSD to experiment and see if it changes them. However, I wouldn't recommend it be taken recreationally by a person with mental defects. Actually, I wouldn't recommend anyone taking it recreationally. It's really a meditation drug.

[thehanz123]

@MrGhostblood im not saying people dont ever come back, but there are many cases out there of people believing that is so.

if you would give a skitzo lsd to experiment, then your fucked up. its an explore your mind drug. most forms of meditation have to do with a silent mind. cid woont let you have a silent mind, even when you close your eyes.

if you wana meditate meditate. if you want a mind trip take cid shrooms 2ci peyote..

there not in the same category though.

[420conejo420]

20:54 for all the people who are nervous. dont be..

[420conejo420]

16:43 for the people who want to see how good it feels

[Philzwhodrumz]

So good they got an artist.

[thehanz123]

@Philzwhodrumz 12 fuckin hours...

if you got anxiety or any other type of mind problem. do not do it.

you will get fucked over.

trust me.

if your mind is strong.. you will have a wonderful life changing experience.

BUT DO NOT DO IT IF YOU HAVE MIND PROBLEMS. YOU WILL HAVE A VERY BAD LIFE CHANGING PERSONALITY CHANGING EXPERIENCE.

[MrGhostblood]

@thehanz123 Horse shit.

[Philzwhodrumz]

@thehanz123 I think that was meant for someone else...

[thehanz123]

@Philzwhodrumz yu rightt

[VibrantCompromise]

How long does acid last?

[mickwade1]

[rhombusskullvsteal]

That guys an asshole "would you like to eat it? Come on just eat it. EAT IT!" lol

[ImSilasOG]

that guy was fucking lit rofl. man i wish i could find some like that

[eujeeves]

looks like Bill O'Reilly, maybe his dad? No wonder he's deranged.

[208gerry]

If I were him I would have tossed the art supplies,and taken a walk outside...

[zethohone]

Some micrograms of consciousness in water .... and the whole world could just disolve into a glass of water..

[Hoodyrulez]

@zethohone thats not true

[redefininchange]

his second picture, on lsd, looks like one i would draw normal 0_o  what does this mean!?

[Delboy65100]

What a nice guy and very articulate about what he's experiencing despite that annoying scientist cunt interupting him when he just wants to enjoy being blissed out :)

[BKSonnier1]

Reminds me of when I'm trying to get my kids to eat broccoli...

[BobbyMercy1]

long slow distance is that what lsd stands for?

[Thezedword12]

I love the euphoric part... It brought back good memories man

[nickj230]

Haha at 21 minutes he's trippin balls

[franksaninocencio]

12:40 I stopped eating meat after dosing up

[Sidneyirvinggrosberg]

I miss the acid of old. I stick with psilocybin now and it's still good medicine for the brain in a world gone insane.

[waypasthadenough]

@Sidneyirvinggrosberg

The world's always been insane. It's just that now we get it delivered to us 24/7 in color...

[Sidneyirvinggrosberg]

@waypasthadenough Yeah, but now there's over 7 billion of us on this planet that we're in danger of destroying. In 1970 there were 3.5 billion people, i'd guess that makes us twice as crazy.

[MrGhostblood]

I took around 500 micrograms of LSD one time and tried to eat a sandwich, which I did get a few bites in my mouth. However, something very unpleasant happened. As I was chewing this nasty ass sandwich in my mouth, I completely forgot that I was eating. Earlier that day, my cat had 5 kittens. When I came back out of my daydream, I realized I had something in my mouth and thought I had ate one of the kittens. I had to count those kittens 5 times until I convinced myself that I didn't.

[gators8769]

@MrGhostblood got damn son.

[MrGhostblood]

When you're doing LSD, the last thing I would want to hear is anything about is a dark fucking cage!!

[gammafactormedia]

When the researcher clapped while he was drawing ... poor guy!

[liosama]

this is gold

[FossilDiver1964]

I would have kicked the crap out of the research scientist about half way through the experiment LOL

[FossilDiver1964]

I think they gave this guy a lot more than the 100ug that they claim.

[MashDubz]

TINA U FAT LARD EAT THE FOOD

[MrBeatlesnewband]

@MashDubz Hold on, I forgot to put the crystals.

[xSreymx12]

hes trying to make him eat for the experiment..

[benehan]

shittest place to drop ever

[kafka27]

I would like to punch that "medic" in the mouth. Very unprofessional behavior from his side.

[jconner228]

Holy Shit if he doesn't want to fuckin eat then stop trying to make him fuckin eat!!!!!

[kafka27]

@jconner228 agree.. that a moron..

[SamBamWam1]

[Karoluxz]

7:24 Nice One

[oluham]

Yo, doc....Try it out on Yourself!

[FlavorRecords]

this scientist is a douche

[AllarisFianna]

That doctor is hungarian. It's funny how easy it is to recognise our accent.

[Sidneyirvinggrosberg]

I'd give my left testicle for some Sandoz LSD. Heard some guy found a vial somewhere fairly recently.

[3lth]

21:50 just ruined his peak.

[3lth]

I bet that sammish taste like sawdust.

[1xXxEMOBOYxXx4]

ahaha xD he is trippin baalls man :D

[AlgeKalipso]

How about you clap your hands so I stop experiencing mystical ecstasy. How about that? That's just what I wanted.

[choganskateboarding]

@AlgeKalipso Fucked up his peak.

[84Drumcircle]

"This is purple isn't it"

" No its black"

LOL

[martypdji2]

That looks like he's having a wonderful experience. He's so happy. I've never tried it yet, but where can I get some of this LSD stuff?

[zionxii]

@martypdji2  Go to your local electro club

[joshnuts1]

I bet those dudes were freaking out a little bit.."Wonder if this guy is going to go nuts and kill us". "The mouth is still a sweet mouth"...hahahahaha

[rarulis]

Dude is having an ego death experience at the end and the interviewerer keeps harrasing him lol. He just feels like laying down eyes closed in a dark room and merge with the universe.

[WHYxSOxSERiiOUS]

I loved when he described some stuff, pity the poor guy was harrassed when he could hav been sitting there looking at those patterns on the wall having the time off his life tripping balls.

[mars1134]

Dr. Buzzkill over there.

[gr8skater]

I felt just like him last night. The explosion on energy u see pulsating from objects is soothing yet unrealistic

[123must]

Frankentein !

[Taylor13371337]

i wonder why the scientist doesnt just take it himself? would be a lot for imformative then asking a guy questions

[grenadier33]

@Taylor13371337 Objectively observing the effects of LSD is impossible if you're under the influence of it.

[Taylor13371337]

@grenadier33 true i have never used it myself but if you can remember your trip somewhat then when your back to sobriety you would have a first hand recollection of what the effects are. But ill stop assuming because i could be completely wrong about something i dont know about

[rljetsetradio]

The scientist was definitely irritating and could have spoken differently but it is an experiment and data needed to be gathered. It was nice to see that they had a very articulate and well spoken volunteer.

[fusebmxrider]

Irritating scientist. But watching Bill trip definitely put a smile on my face.

[Taylor13371337]

the interviewer is really aggravating just let the guy enjoy his trip

[NeonKidz]

tears of joy

[sasquash12]

YOU MUST BE HAPPY BECAUSE YOU HAVE TEARS IN YOUR EYES

[sasquash12]

That's some real good acid. Shit.

[sasquash12]

GO BACK IN TIME LIKE A MIRROR REPEATING ITSELF OR I love this man.

[sasquash12]

I love this man.

[MrBrewsterProduction]

I got to this from 21 pilots...

[macgeek2004]

@youngbuck189

You mean DOB.

[cliffworks4321]

I understand why the Dr. subjected this articulate & sensitive subject to all those questions, but from a layman's perspective, what a bum trip! Compared to my experiments- saw Hendrix on Orange Sunshine, The Cream on White Flats, Palm Springs holiday with over 100,000 longhairs on I forget, we all skinny dipped up at Taquitz Falls, numerous love-ins at Alysian Park and Venice Beach. My experiments were fun! Then they threw me in the loony bin where I met Dr's like this one!

[cliffworks4321]

3:14 the doctor says, That's just about xxxx (the subtitle Kryptonite appear on screen) What the heck??

[discoverydavid]

Watching people argue over the internet is great. It always finishes in the unsatisfactory-because-you'll-­never know statement "I'm clever you're stupid"...so why bother in the first place if A) You're never wrong B) You can't prove that you're right?! But hey, don't let me stop you...continue, please!

[RATSrockhard]

@discoverydavid Always huh? I don't think so. Mostly yes. Always? Not likely. See there's evidence of it right there in this very paragraph.

[discoverydavid]

@RATSrockhard Yes but you're talking to yourself with rhetorical questions so that doesn't count...even if your first reaction is to disagree with whatever anyone says. And don't say it is because I know that its not!

[RATSrockhard]

@discoverydavid More irony. You can take your foot out of your mouth anytime now.

[discoverydavid]

@RATSrockhard Yeah and I'd stick it right up your ass if I didn't know you enjoyed it so...sissy boy!

[RATSrockhard]

@discoverydavid Clearly you need to come out of the closet.

[discoverydavid]

@RATSrockhard Damn you got me there! Any chance of a reach-around?

[RATSrockhard]

@discoverydavid Sorry. I'm not gay. Maybe you can try your brother.

[discoverydavid]

@RATSrockhard Oooo, I'll scratch your eyes out!

[hunchaz]

16:45 hah ive been their man

[joshnuts1]

@hunchaz I've* been there* illiteracy runs deep with you people on You Tube Jesus!!!

[hunchaz]

@joshnuts1 So sorry but in my defense i was high at the time.

[djpremiumb]

@hunchaz so have i lol

[fliegeroh]

Some psychadelics are referred to as "entheogens", i.e. drugs which can induce the religious experience, the direct experience of God and alternate realities, in much the same way as the experiences of the ecstatic saints. It's kind of sad that in our society, these drugs are banned. While they are certainly not "safe" drugs, in controlled circumstances, they could be very enlightening to us as individuals. Steve Jobs and many others have said so.

[TheDrunkenMantis]

@fliegeroh If it wasn't for Entheogenics (Mostly Salvia and Mushrooms), I wouldn't be Buddhist and meditating daily! (Not to mention traveling to Asia a couple times)

It's sick that people think alcohol and nicotine are less harmful. :|

[underage4page]

fuck off, he's not hungry!! if only they understood.....

[allencrider]

What an annoying scientist pestering the subject about his not wanting to eat. Loss of appetite is cut and dry for many drugs & medications.

[ezcondition]

LSD injected him straight into the collective unconsciousness, albeit it man made. when done with meditation you ease into it at levels and don't have the anxiety and that feeling of not wanting to let go. he feels that way cause his not truly enlightened. if you're male take the smallest dose you can to get just the slightest bit of trip, that is how a female sees things, sober. from a persons breathing, to feeling what they feel, to reading the emotions on the face, etc. it's interesting.

[RATSrockhard]

@ezcondition Are you insane?

[ezcondition]

@RATSrockhard haha no. 

[RATSrockhard]

@ezcondition You may be on to something with the collective unconscious but saying a male can experience how a "female sees things" by taking a small dose of acid is both untrue and bizarre.

[youngbuck189]

Take LSD, government and sheeple think your crazy, insane lunatic.

Take alcohol, nicotene, or prescription drugs and you're a good old American.

[sweatyshorts]

@youngbuck189 False equivalency. You're redundant.

[youngbuck189]

@sweatyshorts go sweat in your shorts and drink whiskey

[RATSrockhard]

@youngbuck189 There is no LSD anymore. The last of it was seen in the mid 70's. What ppl call acid these days is --- who knows what it is. The closest you can get now is shrooms.

[youngbuck189]

@RATSrockhard Get real

[RATSrockhard]

@youngbuck189 If you think modern acid is the same as what we had in the 60's you must be way under 50. You have no fucking idea. You get real. You're too young to know what you're talking about.

[youngbuck189]

@RATSrockhard First off, the LSD of the 60's was enormously too powerful. No one knew what the fuck they were doing. That is where the bad trip was invented, because people took doses that were far too powerful. Modern acid is much less powerful, probably 1/6 - 1/10 as strong as the 60s acid. I'd rather be able to control myself and keep sane than take doses that will fry my receptor sites. Keep your 60s acid, it's too powerful for your own good.

[RATSrockhard]

@youngbuck189 Bullshit. The LSD of the 60's was the real deal. What you think is acid now is something else. The bad trip is common because some ppl can't handle tripping. It has everything to do with their mental stability and nothing to do with the acid being "too powerful." You have no idea what your're talking about. I'm an old man. I did plenty of acid in the 60's and 70's. I know for a fact what you get today is NOT the same thing. Potency isn't the issue. You're clueless.

[RATSrockhard]

@youngbuck189 Does the guy in the video seem to be having a bad trip to you? The guys blissed out. That is what real acid does. The shit you take now isn't acid and it can be a bad trip because it's laced with questionable chemicals. Acid in the 60's was pure. Acid now is crap.

[youngbuck189]

@RATSrockhard He was given acid by scientists. You were given acid by a hippy who hadn't showered in 3 years and bought it off a person who claimed to have made it. Yea right, acid is one of the hardest chemical compounds to produce in the USA. You need equipment that even advanced university labratories dont have. You think modern acid is not acid, you can believe that with no proof. Go right ahead, keep thinking your so much more aware than everyone else cuz you tripped too hard for too long.

[RATSrockhard]

@youngbuck189 Wrong again. You think modern acid is the same as what Albert Hoffman made with no evidence. You are an idiot. Furthermore I never said I was more aware than anyone. All I said is the acid in the 60's was pure and these days nobody even knows what they are getting. That is all factual. Your babbling is patently absurd. Clearly you're too narcissistic to admit you're wrong. But you sure the fuck are. Very, very wrong.

[RATSrockhard]

@youngbuck189 There may be more to what you are saying than I thought. I'm only going from experience and I stopped long ago when it didn't seem like it was the same stuff anymore. It's possible I wasn't meeting the right ppl. But it does evidence that there is a lot of fake acid out there.

[youngbuck189]

@RATSrockhard Of course there is fake acid, most of it is probably fake. That is not because real acid doesn't exist, it's because its become very lucrative to sell it, so lots of dealers want in on the action but don't have a source. Most of the fake acid out there is just bum acid, no drug at all, just a piece of paper. In my experience the last 5 years at festivals, there is def real acid, but also I've experienced the fake, unknown chemicals that you mention. The problem is how to know.

[RATSrockhard]

@youngbuck189 Well that gives me hope. I took something at burning man a few years ago that was supposed to be acid. There's no way. It felt like I took a huge dose of meth. Ughh! I hope you're right and I shouldn't have jumped all over your case like I did.

[youngbuck189]

@RATSrockhard It's all about who you can trust and who you know. I've been given some bad stuff, and it has bad effects, some of them long term. However I've also had the real deal, and it's everything this documentary shows. Usually people are so desperate to trip that they buy anything, even if the businessman is less than trustworthy. I've heard a lot of fake acid is 2cb.

[Eametsa]

@RATSrockhard what i have taken then so far???

[RATSrockhard]

@Eametsa If you had read the rest of the comments you'd see that I did some research and admitted I was wrong. The acid now isn't as strong as in my day but it's still acid.
