Discussion Is this true?

If so, why isnt this method spoken about more?

I do not believe the "painless" statements regarding any cyanide-based liquids are true. The members of the Jonestown Cult back in the '80s drank a cyanide cocktail (spiked with favoring) and recordings appear to NOT to be painless: "entire body starts to convulse. Then your mouth fills with a mixture of saliva, blood, and vomit."

There is no a bit of truth in what it says. Cyanide poisoning is far from painless. Not to mention that emptying the glass does not hide how you died. Cyanide leaves clear tell tale signs and is easily detected in an autopsy,

I have heard that you do pass out quite quickly so while it does sound gruesome, may not actually feel that much pain.

Please visit the link I had provided with respect to the level of discomfort. Thanks.

Okay, so that link does not sound encouraging. I agree, sounds horrible. I have seen spy documentaries where they talk about use of cyanide pills where the person is dead before they hit the floor. Anyone have any ideas on what the differences in those types would be?

Cyanide is the salt of the sea,
just look at these fish, with Jesus and me.



Idk.

My chemistry teacher once told me that it will be very quick(possibly less than 5s), but report are coming very controversial
I reckon the main reason why we don't talk about it is that it's very hard to obtain with all the regulations, and you can't tell its purity if you produce it yourself (I once tried the Potassium Ferrocyanide method and it failed catastrophically)

Somewhat related, but I attempted cyanide poisoning before; I grinded bitter almonds, mixed them with water and a lot of sugar then drank it all.
Bitter almonds contain amygdalin which turns into hydrogen cyanide when ingested. I felt no pain as my body grew number by the minute until I lost consciousness. Unfortunately I woke up later on with the urge to throw up. Apparently glucose acts as an effective counteragent to cyanide which thwarted my plan.
After that, I had extremely low blood pressure for 3 days straight and could barely stand up.

people are just saying cyanide. theres different kinds of cyanide, it probably wouldnt be much of a difference but wouldnt there at least be a slight difference between them all?

Yeah, I've heard if you soak apricot pits in alcohol for a long time, they'll leach cyanide into the liquid as well. No idea on the efficacy.
