Almost every substance taken in to much quantity would create a reaction from your body.

Even water.

BS, I don´t like Marijuana (in fact I hate it and tabaco too), but you can´t consume enouth THC and reach toxic level by smoking convencional hemp.

Poisoning = inhaling excesive quantity of the substance ??

Pure oxygen would kill you if did it for a while, short periods is alright but it can lead to major brain cell death, and then eventually death.

You might be able to say you cant overdose on "air" as that is what we breathe. BUT you can kill someone with it, as airbubbles in the blood stream are deadly.

Wow...this is literally the first time I've heard of someone overdosing on Marijuana. Then again I haven't looked for it.


It is quite possible actually. I've seen people overdose on the stuff years ago. But to be fair, this was through ingesting it via brownies and cakes - not smoking. The subjects ate too much and I believe instead of frying the marijuana in oil before placing it in the batter, they put it whole - which would yield a nasty high, especially in large amounts.

 

OT

I imagine this fooled some people, but I saw this on another site and it was said to be false - satirical in nature. Apart from that, it didn't seem genuine to begin with.


OMG

In this case, yes. Quite literally. Oxygen toxicity occurs when you "consume" too much oxygen.
