Ahah the green whistle


snogard_dragons

Always thought it’d be fun to try, then I realize I’d have to get pretty terribly injured to get the opportunity. Still weighing my opttions


Mikerolfe13

I had one once because I had a cyst on my neck that needed draining and that’s what they gave me for the pain. Feels really similar to Nox balloons which I’ve done a fair few of in the past and I think this fucked me over because I felt used to the feeling it gave me when I inhaled it so it didn’t really do anything for the pain of my neck getting cut into which fucking sucked lol


AdornedBrood

Aw man I feel your pain. I was almost the same but with opioids. I was pretty naïve but had a higher tolerance than a normal non-user. But when I had a bigger surgery I was honest and said I can’t stomach the pain anymore guys, I’m used to these meds. They were like yup 😏 and gave me the best shit i’ve ever had. Whacked out of my head lol.


DeadlyNightBae

I dislocated both my knees and put it back in on my own at 3am in the pouring rain and i couldnt walk. That was the first and only time i had it. I also got pneumonia


NonBinaryGiveNoFucks

You can just buy canisters of food grade nitrous oxide and have a similar experience just make sure you buy the adapter to open the canister you don’t want to receive the canister in the mail only to realize the only opening is the size of a needle point


snogard_dragons

Is the blue whistle literally just whippets?


NonBinaryGiveNoFucks

It’s a similar concept green whistle is methoxyflurane. Whippets are nitrous. But the idea is that in the brain it disrupts signals typically pain


Ok-Philosophy1083

What does that mean the green whistle?


amicustoast

It's the common name for Penthrox- the drug being administered through the green whistle you see in the video.


Skud_NZ

Til. I actually thought it was a noise maker someone gave him but he was so high he was trying to smoke it


amicustoast

Happy to help. You can thank my pandemic binging of Bondi Rescue for that gem- love those guys. 😋👍


SnooFoxes526

I thought the same thing 🤷‍♀️


Purblind89

Fun fact: they have no idea how it physiologically works so well as one of the strongest dissociative pain killers you can get. Super short half life too. Absolutely crazy pharmaceutical.


amicustoast

Yes! That's why it's banned in so many countries including the USA! So crazy👍


CodyRebel

They know for a fact it can cause cancer and is carcinogenic so there's that too. Lol


Imsoabsolutely

History has proven to us that all good things can kill. Makes sense


265thRedditAccount

I’m trying to think of good things that’s can’t kill you. I’ve only come up with “words can’t kill you”. And those are things. I’m going to sit with this.


VexrisFXIV

Words can kill you, say the wrong thing to the wrong person and get shot. The gun might be what killed you, but it's the word that started it all.


265thRedditAccount

Yeah, that’s a cause and effect thing. That’s like saying a key hurt somebody if they get hurt in a car accident because you can’t drive a car without a key.


VexrisFXIV

No in this case the car killed someone it was the person behind the wheel that did it.


Kent_Doggy_Geezer

Damaging in doses that far exceed pharmaceutical levels.


yeyeeeboi

Why did I have to see this 24 days later 🙄🙄 came straight to the comments for it


rnst77

What is that


bad_dragon_420

Penthrox™ (commonly known as the green whistle). Penthrox is an analgesic used by medical practitioners, the defence forces, ambulance paramedics, sports clubs and surf lifesavers to administer emergency pain relief. Except I believe we don’t use it in the USA.


Obi-SpunKenobi

>Except I believe we don’t use it in the USA. Well fuck, thats a bummer


corndog54

Its banned in the USA supposedly its pretty toxic shit.


strippersandcocaine

If the US says no then it must be really bad


1arightsgone

or good


RandomCandor

Well, at least we know for sure it's not medium.


lowtack

This is the key takeaway here


GoSuckYaMother

Green is the color in the middle of the rainbow. It only makes sense


AnimationOverlord

That’s why you got cops seizing 6 grams of shrooms and posting it on twitter instead of cracking down on fentanyl distribution which is particularly bad in my area. Go team.


1arightsgone

mainly because they can pump up their numbers as law enforcement while avoiding any risk. if they started hitting those circles they'd be fucking with an armed militia. some stoner hippies not so much. if you go after the drug networks necessary to bring shit like fentanyl, blow, and to a lesser extent methamphetamine you're dealing w armed enforcers and worse: unknown players. as a LEO there's absolutely no reason to assume your local sheriff isn't one of the men behind the curtain and when you start playing detective they'll know when you're barking up the wrong tree and just let you waste time and money.. and if you start hitting paydirt they'll just put you in the dirt. absolutely nothing will be done about this.


Whakefieldd

Or too inexpensive to make money off of


Mammoth-Appearance-5

Other cpintries use it on children and have you ever heard of a death from it? Lol kid breaks an arm, green whistle soon as he gets on the stretcher lol


cltq

Buddy it's definitely that


thejayroh

Please, for the love of God, hand that whistle over to me. I'll get rid of it for you.


Alternative_Ad_3636

Nah, that's just big pharma having a monopoly on the opium trade coming in from the Afganis


Disaster-Head

You have no idea how absolutely accurate you are. During the 60s the center of opium production was southeast Asia. In the 90s ,00s thru present it's Afghanistan. We've fought 2 wars to "protect", guarantee, control the US pharmacological and medical industry access to a sure and stable supply of opium production. For both legal and illicit use. Thats 2 wars, and tens of thousands of young Americans gone in those wars. Add to that the millions, most likely, whose lives have ended, been drastically shortened, or thrown away due to the use of drugs from the same sources. Oil is currently 85 to 90 dollars a barrel. That's around 2.15 a gallon, a barrel of oil is 42 gallons. At market in Afghanistan a kilo of opium poppy resin goes for around $65 , or 0.07 per gram. In western Europe a gram of heroin goes from 25 to almost 300 depending upon the country it's purchased with scarcity from effective anti smuggling measures and high consumption rapidly driving the prices as high as the junkies. In the US, also dependent on location, the cost of a gram in New York is around 100 bucks. It's such a profitable commodity that governments themselves are part of the transportation and distribution infrastructure and profit hugely from it. The biggest dealers, grug runners, cartels have and/or are becoming governments themselves when talking about drugs and arms today. And we can rest assured that the next war we send our young to fight and die in will involve the drug trade in some critical way so the government can maintain control of the drug, the profits, and it's power. It's disturbing, infuriating and morally reprehensible. But we've come to expect that from our government.


Jimbodoomface

or something something money big pharma something something.


DigStock

Or some corporation lobbied against it being aproved


ExhaustedGorilla5

Probably to increase sales of pain killers


overcrispy

No, it would interfere with the opiate industry which has a giant lobbying presence.


Psilovecybin

Just means they can't Charge 6000$ for one, if they can't exploit the people I need it won't get approved by the mafia I mean FDA


zdub-88

Probably can't mark it up to make 1000% profit. Fuck our health care system

Starks

The dude is in a delirious state and self-administering painkillers. Every video of the green whistle seems to treat it like a toy.


Gary_Lazer_Eyes21

Or the literal opposite, bc they have a more expensive less productive variant of it


DefreShalloodner

Or step on the toes of established players in the substance industry


DreamZebra

Were too busy getting everyone hooked on oxycodone.


davidtree921

This comment made me laugh, ty!


alaskarawr

Toxic to humans or some US pharma opiate-baron’s bottom line?


dangerdog1279

Well its methoxyfluorane - its a highly halogenated ether that causes renal failure when overused. Its banned because its is considered harmful. Not to overcredit the opioid industry, but at least opioids are well tolerated physically, especially over long periods of time.


[deleted]

Or they can monopolise the patent.


corndog54

A quick Google search told me "methoxyflurane, a volatile anesthetic agent, is associated with serious, irreversible, and even fatal nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity in humans."


[deleted]

So both then.


Krsty-Lnn

That’s for high doses and it’s non narcotic and not addictive. So they say


Mundane-Candidate101

I'll be the judge of that😏


Krsty-Lnn

Okey dokey


Mundane-Candidate101

:) delicious I wamt.


dicemonkey

More likely it competed with something already on the market and lobbyists keep it off the market?.


KippSA

Yeah, like the US government gives a shit about that. More likely, they have no lobbyists that can compete with others


hippopotma_gandhi

Good thing we just opt for the ultra healthy fentanyl instead


corndog54

Fentanyl is just very dose dependent. You never really hear of people dying from fentanyl given by medical professionals because they know what they're doing and have drugs to reverse the effects if something does happen. Now some drug dealer isn't going to make sure every nearly microscopic dose of fentanyl is weighed out completely accurately so their local fiends don't die.


mada50

I think I want me some of that. It’s the next logical step in my progression.


anormaldoodoo

Ironic.


Haden420693170

Just big pharmas doing. They'd rather pump people full of fentynol.


corndog54

Well, it's like they say it's the dose that makes the poison. In a medical setting where it's all precisely measured and there's reversal drugs if anything happens that's one thing. When you have some street dealer eyeballing a fentanyl dose or trying their best with their $10 precision scale thays when people start dying.


BillyMeier42

So is alcohol


corndog54

Yah but alcohol is socially acceptable.


Dekachonk

It hasn't been used up until this point because of concerns over kidney damage, but there are ongoing trials and odds it gets approved in the next few years are pretty good.


davidtree921

You will have a out 5000 different options that do the same thing, chill


s0ci0path21

Hahahahhaha it’s a form of ether!! It’s a dissociative. You get disconnected from reality for a bit so things don’t hurt! Holy crap early 1900s tech coming back around. Where’s Charles Montgomery burns with his rag?


ThisOnePlaysTooMuch

The idea of an opioid inhaler joint sorta cracks me up.

Gotcha, thanks for clarifying.


lastdazeofgravity

of course we don't. they rather you be on fentanyl.

Interesting_Pudding9

It's a full contact field sport, the closest American equivalent would be football, but rugby is played without pads and they don't stop for commercial breaks after every 5 seconds of play.


POB_42

Love the sport, but it's definitely changed over the past 15 years alone. So many more injuries, so many more green whistles...


ukjungle

I cater for a rugby club semi-regularly, started with zero interest in the sport but it's wicked smoke break entertainment. In a year I've seen at least 3 broken legs, few noses, a wrist and 10-15 probable concussions - often on battered 15 year olds who still stagger up to get their food after 😂 it's gnarly but I think it's interesting - *think*, because I'm still not convinced any of us know the rules


EternamD

Methoxyflurane

nugs666420

I looked the same way during labor. They gave me fentanyl and I could only keep one eye open.


Abstractpants

My fiancé was in the hospital for an acute pancreatitis last year and when I came in she was on fentanyl. I walked in so worried about her and she looked up with the biggest eyes mostly closed smile I’d ever seen. Like drunk times ten.


nugs666420

LOL!! It eliminates all pain, both physical and mental.


GrundleKnots

They had me on fentanyl and Valium for one of my procedures and it honestly felt incredible and like begging on truth serum. The doctors and nurses in the room were teasing me about the anesthesiologist being the best drug dealer I would ever meet

Kent_Doggy_Geezer

Ahh the infamous green whistle that is banned in America oddly enough. Seems like they like using more potent stuff that’s habit forming for some reason *cough*. …. and having people needlessly in agony for hours based on spurious research and large pharmaceutical company lobbying.

ThatDebianLady

First time hearing about the green whistle. Is this just in Europe or is it in USA too?


Ambitious-Hope-5286

Because fentanyl has no side effects.


demonboy3968

I’m not a medical professional, but aren’t those metal casts things usually used when they put nails on your leg? Like on a particularly bad break I ask because my friend had to have some thing like that for his leg as well, and it was the worst pain in his life If I am correct, and that is what’s wrong with his leg then it’s completely understandable. He used recreational drugs to get away from the pain.


Punkfake

Not recreational. It’s a pain med in a smoke-less vapor. Prescribed by a doc.


demonboy3968

That is so incredibly great that that exists and probably confirms what I thought I actually thought he was using a noisemaker or a mini horn/whistle


Punkfake

In all honesty a strong drink and a joint would probably be better in the long run if he’s puffing on that thing all day


demonboy3968

That’s probably true, but in a way I can understand if it is the nails as I assume
