Most of these come from my
Random blog, which is an electronic scrapbook of stuff I thought I might like to view at some time or other. For those who want to view stuff on drugs I've collected the very best links here. Unless otherwise stated these are full-length features, usually an hour or more.
If you have a slow connexion and are unused to viewing multiscreen films on Youtube here's what to do: click the first one and play on mute, stopping and starting as it does. Then, when it's done, click on Repeat Play and you get the full entertainment without interruption. While you watch screen one, do the same to screens 2, 3 and so on. So as each bit finishes, the next part's ready and waiting.
Mexican Black Tar Heroin: "
Dark End"
Khun Sa, whose name meant Prince Prosperous, had been, before his death in the mid 2000s, the world's biggest dealer in China White Heroin: "
Lord of the Golden Triangle"
In-depth portrait of the Afghan heroin trade at its very height. Includes heroin-lab bust. "
Afghanistan's Fateful Harvest"
Classic miniseries whose title became a catchphrase for the misery of life in East Asian prison. Nicole Kidman plays a privileged middle-class girl set up to mule heroin through Thai customs with the inevitable consequences. This is so long it had to be posted in two parts. "
Bangkok Hilton 1" (first 2 hours or so); "
Bangkok Hilton 2" (last couple of hours).
Short film: from tapwater-clear H4 in the USA to murky black Afghan brown in Norway: "
Heroin Addicts Speak"
Before his untimely death this guy kept a video diary. Here's the hour-long highlights as broadcast on BBC TV: "
Ben: Diary of a Heroin Addict". Thanks to
Noah for the original link.
Some of the most entertaining scenes from Britain's top soap (as much for the poor research as anything else). Not even Phil Mitchell would go from nought to multi-hundred pound binges this fast: "
Phil Mitchell on Crack" (just over 5 minutes).
Scientist lady shows us how to cook up gear: "
How Much Citric?" Lucky cow: her brown is 70% purity! Oddly we never see her actually do her hit... maybe she got camera shy...
And lastly:
German documentary following a life from teenage addiction to untimely death before the age of 30. The decline in this girl's appearance is truly shocking. "
Süchtig: Protokoll einer Hilflosigkeit". Sorry no subtitles; this is here for anyone learning German who's after practice material a little more gripping than Lindenstraße!

Gledwood i'll give you $50 if u send over a fox to me i want one to rummage through my garbage or we can trade raccoon for fox????
OK ~ but won't that cost about $1000 trapping fee, caging, immunizations, quarantine, not to mention "shipping & handling"..!
I enjoyed the fox pictures - thank you :) And baby foxes, too, wow!
Are they as rampant in Finland as here? They're everywhere!!
They're feral here and were introduced by the colonists for pleasure hunting. $2 a pelt! I often see one cruising up the driveway but they drive my dog crazy. they must smell weird because she has quite a different bark when a fox is around! So, cute though.
Fox diarrhoea absolutely reeks. And it's all oily and near-impossible to get rid of without double-washing at high temperature.
But they do look furry (if sly...)
Actually they remind me of a redhaired sly person I used to know when I was younger...
I have seen only one fox in Finland - through a car window, running in a field. I know we have them, but I think they stay mainly in woods and forests. A beautiful creature which I prefer admiring from afar :)
Have to admire their intellect and beauty. I think one might have got into my neighbour's hen house the other week - should have heard the screams from their little kid that morning :(
Rita: only ever seen one? Finland must be a rubbish-free country! Then again you are right next to/in the corner of Scandinavia... is Finland Scandinavian or not? I never knew. I just know the language is "Uralic" or something and totally un-Scandinavian. Plus that Finland has some of the most amazing lakeland scenery in all Europe. Actually I would love to go during the allnight sun... I was going to say to see the aurora Bs but that would be kind of difficult then...
;->...
Bimbimbie: bloody hell!
美しい生き物!I wish we had more foxes and other wildlife where I live! In my area the only "wildlife" you can find is a couple stray cats (Who all mostly have homes), birds, rarely leash-less dogs (not strays) , and it's a very rare site to see a mouse,rat,frog, squirrel, or possum.
