In the crime ridden streets of Colombia, urban myths tell of the horrors surrounding a local drug
nicknamed “the devil’s breath.”

The drug’s real name is

Insignia™ - 50" Class (49.5"
scopolamine, an anticholinergic Diag.) - LED - 1080p - HDTV
drug derived from a number of $24999
trees native to South America.
Hailed in a 2013 Vice documentary
as ‘the world’s scariest drug
(http://www.vice.com/en_ca/video/

scopolamine is known to turn its

user (or victim rather) into a docile
zombie ready to do exactly what its perpetrator wants.

In an attempt to learn more about the mysterious underground drug, Vice’s Ryan Du y ew down
to South America to interview those who deal the drug as well those who’ve fallen victim to it.

One drug dealer out of the capital Bogota claims the most frightening part about the drug is its
simple method of administration, which can see the colourless, odourless drug blown in the faces
of its victims, taking e ect almost instantaneously.

Scopolamine has a remarkable ability to wipe its victims memory clean, so that the next day there
is no recollection of what transpired while under its in uence. Stories run rampant throughout
Colombia of people being raped, having their bank accounts emptied, or even willingly giving up an
organ.

This makes scopolamine an e ective weapon for drug dealers, thieves and even prostitutes, as
shown in Vice’s documentary short.

“They go out to party and then wake up two or three days later on a park bench,” said Maria
Fernanda Villota, a nurse at San Jose University Hospital in Bogota, which receives several
scopolamine victims every week. “They arrive here without their belongings or their money.”

Last year, Colombian police reported nearly 1,200 cases

(http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/regions/americas/colombia/130614/colombia-
scopolamine-drug) of people victimized by criminals using scopolamine and other so-called zombie
drugs. The victims range from high-pro le politicians to U.S. Embassy employees to average
Colombians. Perhaps the number of cases are related to the drug’s availability, whose metabolites
can be found in a number of plants, including jimson weed, angel’s trumpets and corkwood.

Scopolamine is a muscarinic antagonist (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscarinic_antagonist) which

works by blocking the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, resulting in depression of the
central  nervous system. The few medical uses include treatment of motion sickness as well as
treatment of symptoms of Parkinson’s disease.

Even the CIA has been called out for using scopolamine in behavioural-engineering programs from
the 1960s, according to John D. Marks’ book, The Search for the ‘Manchurian Candidate.’

The Vice documentary makes for a fascinating watch, I highly recommend it to anyone fascinated
with the underground world of the drug trade. Here’s what Ryan Du y had to say about his
experience while lming the piece:
When VBS initially asked me to go down to Colombia to dig into this Scopolamine story, I was
pretty excited. I had only a vague understanding of the drug, but the idea of a substance that
renders a person incapable of exercising free-will seemed liked a recipe for hilarity and the
YouTube hall of fame.  I even spent a little time brainstorming the various ways I could transport
some of it back to the states and had a pretty good list going of di erent ways to utilize it on my
buddies.

The original plan was for me to sample the drug myself to really get an idea of the e ect it had
on folks. The producer and camera man had ew down to Bogota ahead of me to con rm some
meetings and start laying down the groundwork. By the time I arrived a few days later, things had
changed dramatically. Their rst few days in the country had apparently been such a harrowing
montage of freaked-out dealers and unimaginable horror stories about Scopolamine that we
decided I was absolutely not going to be doing the drug.

All elements of humor and novelty were rapidly stripped away during my rst few days in town.
After meeting only a couple people with rsthand experience, the story took a far darker turn
than we ever could have imagined, and the Scopolamine pranks I had originally imagined pulling
on my friends seemed beyond naive and absurd.

By the time we were wrapping things up and preparing to leave the country, I couldn’t wait to get
as far away from Colombia and that drug as possible. Apologies for a eeting moment of
sincerity, but looking back, I’m pretty proud of the work we did down there. This story, and the
people who tell it, truly deserve to be heard.”
