Do you think what he was experiencing was psychosomatic?
I guess if you've been told again and again that Fentanyl can do this, then there's a chance it's going to happen without a physical reason.

Totally possible that it's psychosomatic. Heat stroke? Other "panic" attack?
Remember, if you're breathing and standing, and talking, you're not overdosing on a narcotic.
It's unfortunate that this kind of misinformation makes its way through the law enforcement community.
Maybe YouTube and Google will censor it?As I said, of the thousands of ampules of fentanyl I've opened, I'm sure I spilled some on my hands. It's a wonder I'm alive. See my trophy, above.

By the way, the trade name for fentanyl, when it first came out was "Sublimaze."
What a great name - "Sublime amazement." Almost as good as Versed.

I think I mentioned before that when our next door neighbour at our last house died they showed up with hazmat suits. It didn't seem to register that his poor grandparents who found him weren't experiencing any symptoms.

That's also not a weapon. Unless they have a mechanism for getting it INTO someone, it's harmless.

In an enclosed environment, perhaps. There are rumors that that's what the Russians did in that theater. Carfentanil is a more likely substance. Remifentanil is another possibility, but its duration of action is very short - minutes.
Carfentanil is a nasty drug. Exceptionally potent.
Its primary use is veterinary, and the vets are taught to always, ALWAYS, have naloxone drawn up and ready to go.

From Wikipedia: "An actuary is a professional with advanced mathematical skills who deals with the measurement and management of risk and uncertainty."
That's actually hilarious.

An actuary is a person who deals with numbers but doesn't have the personality of an accountant.

One of the few professions that when replaced with AI will become more personable.
