Erowid Report on Tainted 2C-B-Fly

original post:

There are reports of a Danish guy dying of heart failure this weekend, after ingesting 18 mg of 2c-b-fly.

Is that confirmed? 2C-B-Fly felt really benign on the body for me.

It may even sound like someone is interested in spreading such rumor. So, proof or no proof?!

delsymfan · 05-10-2009, 20:28

Pretty thorough googling with several variations on the phrasing revealed nothing.

I have to say its entirely possible.

But could just be trolling and without a link I will continue my exploration of the stuff.

anondragonfly · 05-10-2009, 20:31

I apologize for introducing such information without proof to back it up, hopefully we will learn more in the coming days. I don't think this story has reached the press yet. Why would someone want to falsify such a rumor?

Aleph · 05-10-2009, 20:33

Sound familiar to urban myth, I also continue my exploration of the stuff.

any major dude · 05-10-2009, 21:51

This may have somehow gotten confused with the bromo-dfly deaths in norway & sweden

Ayrios · 06-10-2009, 00:54

I've heard this was specifically a vendor of said chemical who just stocked it recently. The dose was supposedly 18 mg. I'm reserving judgment till I've seen two independent confirmations.

delsymfan · 06-10-2009, 01:04

I'm going to do some research. I may be able to find out more given your thought on it Ayrios..

Wait. You mean it is the vendor who died?!?!?
I cannot believe it. That'd be crazy.

nuke · 06-10-2009, 01:29

...there is always the unfortunate possibility too of the supplier mistaking a drug for another, a number of years ago there was a rash of overdoses because a vendor was sent DOI instead of 2c-i.

hamhurricane · 06-10-2009, 02:30

any reason this should have increased affinity for 5htb over 2C-B? have the receptor binding affinities been mapped out yet?

delsymfan · 06-10-2009, 10:05

I dont think enough data's been mapped to determine exact receptor targeting.

And yeah If its the vendor then thats fucked up...

Twigs · 06-10-2009, 11:35

It is the owner of a RC company which very recently got 2c-b-fly who has passed away.
It has not reach the news and hopefully it will stay that way.

I got the info from a forum where his friends and family posted the info.

It could be an idiosyncratic reaction or perhaps his supplier made a mistake, but the fact remains that a 22 year old guy lost his life after ingesting 18mg of (what he thought was) 2c-b-fly

Coolio · 06-10-2009, 11:41

What forum did you get the info from?

Shit! Poor fellow!
I have to be selfish here and hope my order was shipped before the incident, and hope it is 2c-b-fly too. I'll take it for analysis and post the results if it arrives, of course.
And yeah: What forum? (if it can't be posted here or by PM, please)

Aleph · 06-10-2009, 12:20

Give all information to confirm it, I think it is extremely important to prevent further deaths of orders that have already been shipped.

moniorojo · 06-10-2009, 12:58

Some orders have arrived already so we will have lab results soon.

Twigs · 06-10-2009, 14:17

It was posted on the danish forum "psychedelia.dk".

pk5000 · 06-10-2009, 15:26

That is sad.....22 is damn young to go out with a heart attack.....but there are so many factors to consider. I wonder if they are going to do an autopsy?

nasir~ · 06-10-2009, 15:30

this is really sad.(if true) he was a very nice guy.

Could you please be more specific as to what thread it is? It's difficult to search a forum in danish and I'd like to translate it to English using google translator.

Yeah. He was so nice that he sent lots of people (including me) an untested chemical. A friend tells me marquis (blue-lilac) shows it's not 2c-b-fly. Now we have to wait for further tests.

what should the color reaction be with marquis? I can't track that info down...is it the same as 2c-b?

OK, I had my friend check his sample of 2c-b-fly he just received...the marquis goes brown, with a slight blueish hue on the outside ring of the reaction area.

Mecke goes to a dark blue pretty much instantly...

so what does that tell us??
