Animal Planet just aired a show dedicated to Scandinavian Wildlife and they just did a segment on wild reindeer that eat magic mushrooms and pretend to fly. Turns out the myth of flying reindeer might not be that far from the truth! I thought this was too cute and funny that I just had to share.
those are the Amanita muscaria mushroom. a bit different from your classic "shroom" usually of the psilocybe genus
What's crazy is that local shaman figured out that by drinking the urine of reindeer you could get high off the chemicals still left over. :eggnog: I've been unsuccessful with amanitas . . . all they do is make my vision blurry and make me drool a lot :2thumbsup:
Western christmas mythology has alot to do with mushrooms... turns out. http://psychedelicadventure.blogspot.com/2008/11/santa-claus-magic-mushroom-flying.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dY0D6-JqsvY"]Amanita Muscaria The Magic Christmas Mushroom - YouTube
Life is just so delicious I will say though that chewing on a little morsel of amanita muscaria before smoking pot completely eliminates the dry mouth which I despise . . . very handy.
Wasn't Santa originally green and white though? I wish he wasn't because I miles prefer the Psychedelic St. Nick
