This member is the original thread starter. breakbeat how many of you are going to DIE at EDC?

ok, let's do some simple math and to estimate how many of you (us) are going to die next saturday.

Let's assume 50,000 will be in attendance, and half plan on getting fucked up (whether it be pills, alcohol, or whatever your poison). Of that 25,000, 10% overdo it beyond their original intention leaving 2,500 seriously messed up folks. Let's say 10% of those have adverse reactions or have completely binged on everything and anything in sight leaving them incapacitated. Perhaps 90% of the 250 can wait it out (with or without a miserable come down) and are otherwise ok when the drugs wear off. That leaves 25 people who need serious medical attention, which may or may not solve their dire problem.

Please don't discredit my point above... yes, I made all sorts of wild assumptions, but is it too unreasonable to think that at least 25 ravers will have their life in the balance next week? My point is: go to edc, have an amazing time, role your ballz off (or whatever), but don't forget that tomorrow is not guaranteed. I want everybody to have as amazing a time as I intend to have, and that does not include a defibrillator at the end of the night. And from a completely selfish stand point, there is no bigger buzz kill then watching a fellow raver having a seizure. Take care of yourself. Take care of each other. And have an amazing effin' night.

Well if we assume 100 people from ravelinks show up... then we trust your estimated numbers... then I make a totally random guess based on no statistical information what so ever... something like .002% ?

i'm going sober and i have a chance of dying.

getting onto the roads on my bike or a car has a higher proportion chance of death.

i think the first to die will be noodles. then masterdose. then rogue will find a free vial of k already cooked up and put herself into a coma and die. so thats 3 down right there.

then ill probably kill klover for post whoring. then me and lazer will battle to the death and wind up killing each other. showstoppa will kill herself at the site of me dying and then antranik will be frying to hard to notice all the blood on the floor and slip, fall, and break his neck causing him to die. and everyone thats left alive will be brutally slain by desygn who was waiting in the shadows the whole time. noire will live because she doesnt really go to any partys and just likes to lurk, but then desygn will find and kill her anyways since shell probably be outside yelling cum to beat off music!


did i miss anyone?

that's true... but the odds of me dying at my computer would be exponentially higher if i had dropped 8 pills, did a couple bumps of k, and a dose or two of DMT.

MDMA is not a lethal substance.

K and DMT are even less lethal (and those two are both on the same lethality caliber as Marijuana. They are equivalents).


Whats lethal is dancing too hard 'while' on Ecstasy, Alcohol, Opiates (or Benzos) all at the same time, getting dehydrated, and dying from exhaustion.


Anyone who dies simply didn't take care of themselves. Theres almost no such thing as dying from a literal "overdose" of MDMA, it would take upwards of 30 pills in a 12 hour period to reach the BOTTOM END of the LD-50 (Lethality) level for most people.

Polydrug use (bad combos), Alcohol, and lack of water.... is what kills people on a freak accident basis.
