This is a very interesting look at the Vice President. Cheney becomes increasingly irrate and at the end won't even answer questions.

AIDS will help you lose weight!
These are real commercials that were made in 1982 right before the AIDS scare. Absolutely hilarious, although horrible.

Documentary on Henbane, an Herb used by Witches
Henbane was a plant found in Europe that can cause the user to have a sense that they are flying or even that they have turned into an animal. It is believed that it was a very important substance in early pagan rituals.

Egyptian Blue Lily Documentary
This is a documentary of the Egyptian Blue Lilly, a flow that is present in many Egyptian artifacts and hieroglyphs. It is now believed that the blue lily had psychotropic effects and was an important part in egyptian shamanistic ritual.
Parasitic Worm that Causes Insects to Commit Suicide
This video shows different insects infected with a parasitic worm. The worm causes the crickets to go to a nearby body of water and commit suicide. The worm then exits the animal and continues on its life cycle. Very Cool!
Short Clip of Insects Infected with the Fungi Cordyceps
Cordyceps is a fungi that infects and eventually kills insects. It eventually travels to the brain where, at the time of death, cause very unusual behavior. It is suggested that the fungi is used as a population control method. Very remarkable and interesting.
A Couple Personal Experiences with Salvia
Salvia is legal in the U.S. and can be order online. This was concentrated and VERY powerful. One cool thing about salvia is that you can have multiple perceptions. Sometimes it multiple hearing perceptions (where you hear 4-5 things all at the same time and completely understand them all - instead of it being all jumbled and inaudible). Other times it is dual visual perceptions. For instance you will see like you normally do, but at the same time you will have another completely visual perception from another location. The visual perceptions are not like a dual "screen" or overlapping, but rather just exist at the same time. It's impossible to understand unless you have experience it before. This is incredibly awesome, and tells you a lot about our brain structure. Usually, you ingest it through inhalation. It is important that you ingest all of the dose in less then 30 seconds. Your body metabolizes the drug very quickly, and you need to get as much of it in the bloodstream as fast as possible. Salvia trips are short (30-45 minutes) and they are closed eyed hallucinations. You should make sure that you are in a very relaxed environment with dimmed lighting (preferably very dark, but make sure you can still see enough to make your way out of the room once you are finished). You should have some soft music on as well. MUSIC WILL GREATLY INFLUENCE YOUR TRIP. I've heard that meditation music is very good, but anything with a very soft slow melodic sound will work.
Note: These experiences were after ingesting 25x concentrated Salvia. This is a VERY powerful does, and I would recommend that with any drug, you respect its power and use with caution.
Note 1: Many things I say probably won't make any sense because they are based on perceptions that you CANNOT have normally. Where your body image is somewhere where you body isn't, or you have two impossible things happening at the same time, or you just have multiple perceptions.
Note 2: Most times I have tripped on Salvia I have COMPLETELY forgotten that I have taken the drug. This can be very scary, since you are seeing the impossible, and someplace that you have never seen before and can't figure out why. You should be experienced if you plan on taking such a strong dosage.
My first experience with the psychedelic drug salvia:
Music: Pink Floyd - Shine on You Crazy Diamond (parts 1 and 2)
I took a hit held it in for about 15-20 seconds and immediately felt the effects. I felt the urge to put down the bowl as quick as possible. I first felt like I was traveling through some kind of tunnel, almost like a wormhole. I was flying at what seemed like a million miles per hour, and I saw all kinds of things from my childhood. I heard several voices all concurrently about things that I remember. (**This tunnel action occurs every time I trip on salvia, with many of the same memories**) My body began to sink into the bed and "took root". My body felt that it was a tree. I was separated from the feeling of my body (My body felt like a tree, but I had a whole different perception in a different body). I had a feeling I was outside at the time. My ‘self’ (who was a child maybe 4-5 pre-kindergarten) was walking down a very large hallway in the tree building that my body became. I was being led by a comforting woman. She was very angelic and had long flowing clothing. I felt like I was a kid who was being led to church school. I walked past many doors, I don’t know how many, and the hallway became dark. The hallway had doors lining both sides all the way to where I couldn't see. The end of the hallway was a completely bright white light, whiter than I have ever seen before, and at the same time completely dark, darker than I have ever seen before. I entered the door to the right of the last of the visible doors. Inside was a child coloring a picture of something. I sat down and began to do something. I talked to the kid who was at the table and asked what this was a school for. He said “life.” I then asked why I couldn’t go to the older classes, which is where you begin to learn. He said “you weren’t ready.” I asked him why not, but he continued to color. I came to the conclusion that I either didn’t take enough, that I had the wrong mindset, that I just was beginning to learn about myself and life, or the environment wasn’t correct. Soon the kid faded away and the room began to diminish, but I was still in the tree of my body. My mind then went back to my head, and my tree body began to reform into a human form. About 10 minutes had passed till the end of the tree like feeling. After the tree feeling, I had surges of energy running through my body. It felt like balls of energy, and I began to feel like this contained the secrets of life. I felt all powerful, but not in the sense that I could physically do anything. It was more like I was completely connected with everything in the universe. It is one of the most amazing feelings I have ever felt. I think this is what it feels like to be enlightened in the eastern religious sense.
Second Experience (Written significantly afterwards, so it may not be exact):
Music: Some chill house music
Like I said before, the music GREATLY effects your trip, as is seen here. After I smoked, I immediately fell into the tunnel. This was pretty much the same as I describe above. You see and hear many past memories. Things that you haven't thought of or heard since your childhood. After the tunnel I was dropped into this new world on a path. The path reminded me of 'The Wizard of Oz' yellow brick road. Everything was in neon colors and cartoon form. Everything (trees, flowers, etc.) was moving to the beat of the music. Many objects, but not all, were just outlined as if you just drew them and didn't color or shade anything. Immediately after I landed I noticed that there was a stick man behind me doing the running man dance. If you don't know what I am talking about, google it, and you can probably find something. I was in a very elated mood, the type of mood you would think you had if you were in a cartoon world. I started to walk down the path. I never left the path my whole trip. I came past this cliff that had a huge body of water beneath it. All of a sudden, a bunch of zombies emerged from the ground. At first I was very scared, as I imagine anyone would be if they saw a bunch of zombies come from the ground, but after they got out of the ground, they all started to dance to the music. I was immediately relieved and thought about how awesome it was to meet a bunch of dance zombies. I continued down the path, now with the running man stick guy and the zombies following me, until I came across this huge cat clock on the side of the cliff. You know those black and white cat clocks where the eyes and tail move back and forth each second. I couldn't see the clock part of the cat, but I could see the whole head, body, and tail. The eyes and tail were moving back and forth to the beat. I remember thinking how cool it was, and continued down the path until I can upon the forest. I walked into the forest and came across a huge tree with a small door at the end of the path. I opened the door and went inside. It was dark at first but I soon realized that I was in my head looking out of my head. (Think of the cartoons where they enter someone Else's ear and can see out there eyes) I began to have a double perception. One of me inside my head looking out my eyes, and another of what my normal perception would be at that viewpoint. (Take into consideration that my eyes are closed this whole time) I noticed that there were a bunch of ropes on the ceiling. I decided to pull one and realized that it controlled my left arm. My body was a puppet and I could control it from inside my head! I started pulling them and eventually began to get control of my body. Once I had fluid control of my body I lost the dual perception of me looking out from inside my head, and just had my normal perception. The second I lost the perception from inside my head, I gain another perception - looking at myself from the corner of my room as I controlled myself from ropes inside my head. It was an amazing experience that I will never forget. I could have never imagined having to concurrent perceptions before, and its hard for me to imagine it now that I am sober, but I know I did! Eventually the trip began to wear off and I just felt very tired, like I went through a long journey.
Couple of Interesting Points - The second time I tripped I did it with a 2 friends. They both felt as if they were walking along a path in a very colorful cartoon like world. They both also saw zombies come from the ground, got scared, but then relieved when they realized the zombies were friendly. They both went into a forest, but instead of entering a tree door and becoming puppets, they had a long conversation with a white lion about life and existence. The fact that all 3 of us had extremely similar closed eyed trips is absolutely amazing. This raises many philosophical and neurological questions about perception, existence, and over all brain structure and composition.

Documentary of Salvia Divinonorum
Salvia is one of the most powerful natural hallucinogens. I have had several experiences with salvia in a concentrated form. In high doses the user loses all sense of reality. Read some of my posts about a few different experiences I've had.
