Submitted for your edification. This has got to be either one hell of a stupid idea, or one of the most balls out deliriant/ hallucinogenic mind fucks you could try.
For those of you who don't know, scopolamine is a tropane alkaloid from the Datura genus of plants. Scopolamine is an antimuscarinic, which blocks acetylcholine receptors of the muscarinic subtype. It has rather extreme psychoactive properties when taken at above normal doses. Disorientation, confusion, hallucination, delerium, and panic are all common effects. Also these tropane alkaloids cause such vivid hallucinations and dellusions, that the people taking them are convinced that they are real, and will often try to interact with these phantom people and things.
Now before you run out to buy,or steal scopolamine, or try to locate a datura plant, you need to know that scopolamine can kill. The peripheral effects of scopolamine are very strong in comparison with their psychoactive effects. The ratio between ED50(effective dose 50) and LD50(lethal dose 50) is razor thin. Scopolamine binds with the M2 receptor which is a cardiac receptor, and can cause a myriad of cardiac problems.

......These are just a few of the reactions those angel trumpets will provide! Remember kids you only need one stamen from inside one blossum. Also you might want to consider packing a lunch and wearing an adult diaper.
