Marijuana related deaths in America

Answer 1

You can't die from smoking too much pot, its impossible for a variety of reasons, primarily because the cannabinoid receptors reside primarily in the brain (amongst other locations in the body) and opiate receptors reside in the brain stem- this controls respiration or breathing.

Death will occur from an overdose of opiates in most cases for this reason, contrarily, marijuana does not have effects on respiration. Large amounts can be taken without serious adverse effects other than getting extremely high.

Answer 2

Taking in concideration that it takes 1500lbs. of weed smoked in 15 minutes to kill u..look it up true stuff. So weed itself will unlikely kill u unless it was laced with PCP or ketamine and slip into the K-hole but the ony way i can think of a marijuana related death was the stupid crap people do after they smoke like jumping off a bridge to swim but u forgot there was no water at the bottom...

Answer 3

No. There are no recorded deaths for cannabis use alone. Not one. Not a single case. You simply cannot find a single case of a cannabis overdose. For the LD-50 margin of a male weighing in at 160 pounds, he would have to smoke approximately 8000 joints in roughly 10 minutes or less to reach dangerous THC toxicity levels. Considering the circumstances, it isn't even possible to smoke that much cannabis unless that person had some sort of mechanically technological machine that could compress the smoke in a smaller space to allow for maximized inhalation, and expansion but even at this rate the person attempting this feat will find them self unconscious long before they reach any moderate level of concern. So, we can now see that not only is it physically impossible, but realistically, time just doesn't allow for someone to smoke that much, that fast.
