I went out in Bristol to see what drugs were available and being used today, I found that Ketamin was amongst the most common, one of the cheapest and with some of the most intense and scary effects. After finding it's actually intended to be used as a horse tranquilizer, I took ketamin user 'Gruff' to a vetinary surgery to witness what effects a similar amount of Ketamin has on a horse.

I just want to make it very clear that the horse was already scheduled for an operation (to remove a testicle) by the very well-respected Equine surgery who were kind enough to let me film it. The operation procedure was in no way influenced by the pod, the operation was sucessful and the horse made a full recovery.

  • Hey Gruff, why the long face?

  • wow, that was really eye opening. It's a shame that we can't get this point across to the masses.

  • That rocked.

    Great objectivity and the horse was cute.

  • There is a positive stigma that comes from being able to survive and enjoy a substance that can fuck up something much bigger than yourself.
    But after watching this pod I will think twice before ever doing k again.

  • Well there is a lot of miss-information about Ketamine so I will hope to clear a few things up, I will start by saying that I do feel that ketamine is a bad thing and I know a lot of people who have nearly ruined there life with it and even one person who injected it while in the bath and drowned.

    Firstly street ketamine is not the same as the stuff given to horses, some of the stuff vets use has morphine in it.
    Also most people who take K do it in powder form, this means that one gram up the nose is a lot less potent than if you were to inject liquid K into the muscle as was done to the horse. The sad fact is that this would be a much safer way of doing it [so long as you know the dose] as the snorting powder causes many of the harmful effects of taking K. the powder is unable to be filtered by the kidneys and causes them along with the stomach to shrink. This causes sustitus in men and women and what is known as 'the K cramps' which cramps of the stomach. All of the above are very painful, if you are going to take K then you need to spit it out once it drips from the back of your nose to your throat and drink lots of water so that it is not laying around in your body.

    Many people think that K is a tranquilizer, this is not strictly true. It is a 'dissociative' which means that it separates mind from body while keeping both awake, thus causing out of body experiences and the like. K has aloud me to experience some amazing things that have given me powerful insights into the real world; in fact states of K use have been likened to states achieved by supreme meditation.

    In recent times the K available has changed, K can be safe if taken properly, as you saw the horse was fine and you will probably not wake up with a ball missing. However it is the K available on the street that has more sinister side effects. It used to come from India, then it was medical grade but now a lot of it comes from the Far East and has been found to contain opiates. That has made K less enjoyable and much more addictive.

    Ketamine has a lot of negative aspects; if people are going to take it then they should do their homework

  • The k that I know is supposedly a cat tranquilizer, purchased in liquid form at discount vet offices in mexico. After its snuck over the border it's then 'cooked' and consumed as a powder. Is this k (or all k) still actually made in Southeast Asia and then just distributed around the world?

  • interesting topic, keep hearing more and more about it, it's good to have a pod on it and nicely done...although having read the responses would have been nive to have more facts surrounding it...

  • OK... For a start, that horse dint snort cooked up ket did it. It had 1.5g of pure liquid ket injected into its veins. Try that on someone? Get the horse to snort some instead of injecting it? I'm sure there will be different reactions.
    And another thing, drugs are designed to work with your brain mechanics. A horse can not sit at a dinner table holding a knife and fork and talk to you about your working day - in other words, it can cope with very little to what we can. I've spoken to people who have used it on cats in sancturies to calm them down if they're getting too vicious, slightly more intelligent animals than horses, it doesn't knock em out as such, just sedates them nicely.
    Size only plays a small part in dosage.
    That horse is huge and was given 1.5g of K, I've seen people snort that and be pretty much fine and some be in a complete K hole - the ones in the hole aren't used to doing such big lines, whereas the others who snort it as their "normal" line have been snorting it for a very long time and have built up a tolerance.
    A friend of a friend ingested some mixed up in some water, not sure how much, but they went into a hole and foamed at the mouth. But then again, I've had a little foam in my mouth from snorting a relatively small line. Can anybody tell me what that is due to??
    This video hasn't put me off coz I believe in brain mechanics and drugs being suited to each type.
    We can cope far better than a horse, size does not matter.
    There, thats all I'm ranting! lol

  • I'm in the processes of proposing the production of a film about Ketamine and why everyone is doing it in (you guessed it) Bristol. I have taken the drug myself and have had my fair share of good experiences along with bad. Very much like Booze and most over drugs. K can have adverse effects on people and scare them out of their wits.
    I feel that drugs like Ketamine, demand a certain amount of mental stability and knowledge of how drugs work and the understanding that the effects will eventually pass.
    Ketamine has become far to popular in Bristol and people, including a lot of my friends, are taking the drugs at times, where surely a glass of wine or just even a cup of tea should surfice. Pubs are now as good avplace as any to get wonkerfied like a two legged donkey.
    I realy like the documentary made by Stew and think it looks professional and pretty hard hitting. I want my documentary to educate users as well as non-users about the drug, and allow for those who have had positive and negative experiences with the drug share them on camera.
    As I have used the drug and have had good aswell bad experiences, I want this documentary to be more of a personal exploration into a drug that Intrigues me and one that I feel I dont know and others dont know about. I wanna try and present the truth behind Ketamine, without coming from a completely negative bias towards the drug.
    Dont make the misconception that I am promoting or plan to promote the drug in anyway. I am merely asking the question through the medium of video documentary "Why do so many people in Bristol do Ketamine?"
