The answer as to why is in the abstract: dude was flying on coke.

shalafi@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 254d (1 reply)

I've done a whole 8-ball in one night. Coke doesn't make you stupid or blow out your inhibitions. This guy was something special to begin with.

M137@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 254d

It definitely blows inhibitions and also makes do you dumb stuff, but nothing close to this level. I've done 8-balls in one night and have done dumb stuff I wouldn't have done without it, same as doing dumb stuff on alcohol and even weed. But this is so far removed from that, he'd have to have absolutely no idea about the dangers and I really think there must have been someone else who persuaded him in bad faith.

Ok so being a chemistry ignorant as I am, I went to Wikipedia to read about this acid, thinking it was probably a very common household item sold under a different name or perhaps a very common drug with a different street name, you get it. But it's not. It's just some acid used in a variety of industry processes.

Why on earth would anyone, even on drugs, think an enema with acid is something they need to experience? I've never done cocaine and I'm also not into painful anal stuff so if you are into either and care to explain I'd really appreciate it.

Well, some people should not do drugs. It can cause all kinds of conditions that you may have genetic predispositions for.

One notable case: drug-induced psychosis which causes (among others) delusions and severe confusion. Sounds like one might pour a deadly acid in their ass when delusional and severely confused.

Tollana1234567@lemmy.today · 6 pts · 255d (3 replies)

the person was also DRUNK and on cocaine.

rikudou@lemmings.world · 5 pts · 255d (2 replies)

These two generally cancel each other out. Not perfectly, but a dose cocaine makes your drunkenness symptoms not as bad and vice-versa. So if you ever want to win a drinking competition, do a line of cocaine beforehand.

JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca · 15 pts · 255d (1 reply)

Ime it just makes your experience of you less drunk. You're still making drunk decisions just with the confidence of cocaine

rikudou@lemmings.world · 5 pts · 255d

I meant mostly physically, your decisions are pretty much double fucked by both cocaine and alcohol.

Maybe a bizarre suicide attempt by someone with some chemistry knowledge?

Bohurt@mander.xyz · 16 pts · 255d (1 reply)

If someone had some knowledge of chemistry/biology they'd expect it to be agonising pain

Mothra@mander.xyz · 9 pts · 255d

Yeah that's the bizarre part. If you are picking this very specific acid you either stole it without knowing anything about it or you know exactly what it is. Both equally puzzling

fullsquare@awful.systems · 4 pts · 255d

it can be bought in italy as a cleaning agent without going through entire process as for reagents purchase iirc

isn’t it “poppers?” a common party drug that it supposed to be left open in a room and passively inhaled?

Jesus_666@lemmy.world · 19 pts · 255d (1 reply)

No, poppers are various alkyl nitrites. Hydrofluoric acid is a different thing altogether. It has no psychoactive properties but will give you nasty chemical burns.

Quadhammer@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 254d

Isn't ... isn't hydrofluoric acid what Walter white (breaking bad spoilers:) >!used to dissolve a body? !<

Bohurt@mander.xyz · 9 pts · 255d

Nope, poppers is something tottaly different (amyl nitrite). It's also not ass-friendly. AFAIK people inhale it directly from small bottles (cca. 10—20 ml).

Psaldorn@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 255d

That's amyl nitrate.

Tollana1234567@lemmy.today · 4 pts · 255d

HF is caustic, poppers use nitrate compounds.

"intoxicated from intranasal cocaine administration" is such a hilariously sterile way to say it.

I actually appreciated that they put in the "intranasal" because it would have made way more sense without it.

Even with the cocaine, the pain must have been INTENSE. can't imagine there wasn't at least some regret deep down.

ryannathans@aussie.zone · 10 pts · 255d (6 replies)

It's not a strong acid, it's just extremely toxic. No idea how much it would have hurt at the time, my guess would be not much, but would have been fucked to experience the aftermath of such an act of idiocy

CookieOfFortune@lemmy.world · 27 pts · 255d (1 reply)

The pain isn’t from the acidity. It’s from the fluorine attacking your nerves AND bones.

ryannathans@aussie.zone · 7 pts · 255d

Yep, IIRC many people don't notice exposure until later when that happens

altphoto@lemmy.today · 8 pts · 255d (3 replies)

It's just one of the two strongest acids. It is able to dissolve glass. But yes, it is toxic and supposedly it kills by removing calcium from the system.

ryannathans@aussie.zone · 7 pts · 255d (1 reply)

That's not the definition of a strong acid, a strong acid is an acid that protonates easily

It's a weak acid

altphoto@lemmy.today · 9 pts · 255d

Okay, despite being a weak acid by the formal definition, hydrofluoric acid is extremely corrosive and dangerous because undissociated HF penetrates tissues and the fluoride ion strongly complexes with calcium and magnesium in the body. This is why HF can cause severe burns and systemic toxicity even though it is not a strong acid in the acid base sense.

Tollana1234567@lemmy.today · 3 pts · 255d

HF is a pretty weak acid. HCL, H2SO4, HNO3 ARE MUCH acidic. the flouride itself is toxic in other ways, not due to the acid.

You’d be amazed of the things that butt doctors see.

bebabalula@feddit.dk · 4 pts · 254d (2 replies)

But still… Hydroflouric acid is not something you just happen to come by on a bender. I would assume that if you had access to it you had some idea about what not to do with it - cocaine and fetishes notwithstanding

GreenKnight23@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 254d (1 reply)

I heard about boofing from.the Darwin Awards before, but that was for vodka and the guy did it died because of alcohol poisoning to earn it. This one seems to raised the bar and lived to tell the tale of acid boofing. Which makes me wonder how many interesting people we share this beautiful world...

MehBlah@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 254d

In 1993 I went to a apprenticeship school for the union I belonged to. The very first class was alcohol and drug awareness taught by a eighty something ex alcoholic who told us about butt chugging. It was basically how to get drunk and hide it from others 101. I know of a few people who have tried it. I guess they just wanted something up their ass.

tbf this uses a lot of medical jargon that most people who aren't doctors will never need. put simply, it's a case of a man who put hydrofluoric acid in his ass (owie) while high from snorting cocaine

edit: wrong acid, it's actually way worse than i thought

dragonfucker@lemmy.nz · 20 pts · 255d

No, hydrofluoric.

Dicska@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 255d (3 replies)

I know it's not that relevant, but isn't hydrofluoric acid a different and much more reactive acid than hydrochloric acid?

TTimo@lemmy.today · 8 pts · 255d

It's reactive enough to bond with uranium and make a gas for enrichment. Crazy stuff.

absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz · 8 pts · 255d

Indeed!

themagzuz@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 6 pts · 254d

wait that says hydrofluoric acid that seems way worse???

i think my brain just kinda autocorrected it to HCl because it scares me to think that there's someone out there who a) has access to HF and b) is dumb enough to put it in their ass

Native English speaker. What I got is "His guts were fucked up in these technical ways so we did magical medical stuff. He went home, came back a 5 months later with sad butt symptoms and we did this other medical thing to treat it."

So yeah, I have no desire to understand more details

Admetus@sopuli.xyz · 2 pts · 255d

Heh, I think things would have been more significantly problematic a bit different if HCl was involved.

Edit: I was ignorant that HF would be worse.

And here I'm wondering what he used for the enema vessel. Hydrochloric acid absolutely wrecks plastic in no time at all, it does significant damage to metals fairly quickly as well. I'm going to assume it was glass.

Polyethylene, polypropylene and Teflon aren't damaged by hydrofluoric acid. Enema bags are commonly polypropylene, so he may not have used anything special, just the glass etching kit and the enema bag he already had to make an arse etching kit
