Thailand's full moon parties 'schoolies on steroids'
went in 1988 an it was ok, wouldn't catch me there for all the $$ in the world;
Read more at http://www.9news.com.au/national/2014/1 ... uSAHUqJ.99Australian revellers have admitted to being offered a string of illicit drugs at Thailand's notorious full moon party.
Every month, thousands of young Australians head to Thai island Koh Phangan to indulge in the full moon celebrations, but in doing so they may be putting themselves in harm's way.
An A Current Affair hidden camera investigation at the infamous beach party has captured dealers offering reporter Ben McCormack both ecstacy and MDMA.
Australian party goers also admitted on camera to being offered drugs.
As well as these illicit offerings, the crowds have easy access to magic mushrooms, a strong hallucinogenic.
Revellers were also captured sucking on balloons, filled not with air but with nitrous oxide, otherwise known as laughing gas, for $3 per balloon.

Seriously Richard. The one thing that annoys me the most about you and makes me want to block you is that you cannot tell the difference between "and" and "an". Usually I don't care for spelling mistakes but you do it all the time. It is more annoying than pretty much anything I have ever encountered in a forum. Please educate yourself.

Re: Thailand's full moon parties 'schoolies on steroids'
i believe the "scene" at vang vieng is no more now.
there were sure a lot of deaths surrounding that little place.
water and drugs including alcohol are a dangerous mix.
i was an oilfield diver in the early part of my working life.
i would not go for a swim in any saltwater after dark drunk or sober.
even way way upriver from the ocean, you can find some quite formidable bull sharks.

"As well as these illicit offerings, the crowds have easy access to magic mushrooms, a strong hallucinogenic."
Never heard nor read of magic mushrooms being available in Thailand. Do you think this is true or just the writer making the story rock and roll along?
We had them in Florida, USA. No better high in the world but you had to control it. I once overdosed and had to pull over out in the country. I was in the back seat of my own car, on the floor, trying to crawl under the front seat when the unknown passerby stopped to see if everything was okay. It wasn't.
Make tea, sip it, reach the high you want before tripping, and be happy.
So, again, are they really here in Thailand?

Re: Thailand's full moon parties 'schoolies on steroids'
of course- they are anywhere you have cowshit and rain
Re: Thailand's full moon parties 'schoolies on steroids'
That's not quite true. Humidity and temperature play a role as well as morning sunshine and the manure can vary due of course to the cows diet. I don't think buffalo manure does the trick either. I remain in doubt with regards to Thailand because you don' t see many cows either. I'm no expert, just know it isn't part of the Thai youth culture. They go for the synthetic drugs these days. Tripping is not the experience they are looking for. To be honest, neither am/was I.frank lee bent wrote:of course- they are anywhere you have cowshit and rain

I know i can get them here from my thai friends ( along with ANYTHING else) if i want but i cant handle it anymore
Nice high but i prefer Peyote
The biggest problem is the kids that are at these parties are NOT usually into the drug scene so have no idea what they are getting themselves into.
A few tokes, a shroom shake and a pail of Vodka/red bull your fucked

I don't have much experience with Peyote. Do you trip or just get a hashish type of high?phuketrichard wrote: Nice high but i prefer Peyote
