    Krokodil

    Anyone seen the now infamous youtube video yet? Would post it but it's very wrong. Russia's new very cheap alternative to heroin. Made from codeine and wait for it hydrochloric acid. Similar hit to heroin but with some pretty severe side effects such as eating flesh. Be warned the video is not for the faint hearted, strong stomachs only!

    Saw this video a few weeks back - truly gruesome. They pretty much have to sedate the addicts for a month to just get them over their physical addiction.

    I'd have to agree, I've got a strong stomach but it really tested me.

    Crikey, those Russians.

    In my day it was vodka and kvass. If they didn't have those, then anti-freeze and boot polish.

    As usual this is an old drug..been around for 70-80 years. But once street merchants start making it with toxic processes the real carnage starts. Don't need to watch. Know what gangrene and nec fasc look (and smell) like ta.
