    R.I.P The Hoff

    Albert Hofmann the original creator and first person to try LSD died earlier today aged 102.

    Got to hand it to this bloke for the effect he had on culture, music, so many peoples lives and psychotherapy. and he was still ranting & raving and fighting for the stuff as an old man. This guy almost inadvertently started a revolution in the 60s. Legend!

    I'm sure anyone who's sampled his product can appreciate him as much as I do.

    Fair fucking play to him for sticking it out untill 102 years old. He was getting buckled on LSD during world war 2 and still kicking about yesterday.

    That's what I call a REAL war hero :king:

    Thats the danger - some people end up in a constant psychosis off the stuff and think they're Jesus. I have a mate that is in that state of mind off psychedelics and its that bad its unbearable to be around.

    does this prove that regular doses of psychedelics makes you live longer? 102 is pretty good score. he made a big difference to my life, R.I.P

    The only thing it might show is that lsd wont affect your physical health.
