Cocaine Factory – Lonely Planet Travel Video

Posted: February 6th, 2010 under travel.
Tags: , , , , ,


In the jungle-clad mountains of the Sierra Nevada, Colombia, we visited a cocaine lab run by a coca farmer. How do you make cocaine? Take some coca leaves, a number of nasty substances, add some bullets, some scary para-military soldiers, a dash of guerrillas, some corrupt cops and a pinch of coca farmer, and you’ve got one of the world’s deadliest drug cocktails.

  1. @seekerbiswas

    cocaine is nothing like weed or acid..
    i would say that weed is more like acid than coc is to acid…

    cocaine is pretty much a crucial habit.. that can strip you inside out.

  3. @seekerbiswas: I personally dont think its a great high. You feel very over aware and paranoid. I think a lot of people like it because of the feeling of confidence they get. Also unless you get it from Brazil, Colombia or Bolivia the chances are its mixed with shit you dont even know about. Stick to the acid my friend! ; ) I travelled alot around Colombia last year and really got to understand the devastating effects the cocaine industry has in this world. Dont fund it! Peace!

  4. I have never tried cocaine, what is the high like? Anything like weed or acid? Tried acid once and I was like Alice in wonderland.

  6. Dude you got it so wrong weed does not grow as rapidly as you would think. It takes lots of time and care to get a good crop with primo buds. Once you have mushrooms set up they kinda just grow themselves and you cut them back every so often. they don’t call marijuana weed because it grows like a weed like wtf

  8. when i said high i ment an upper not a hallucinogenic and anyways shrooms are a fungus so you have to add the spores to the soil which basically they are like their own extraction and morning glory seeds you have to have a certain kind, and you left out peyote

  11. it wouldnt matter what they would add to make it appealing you could just grow your own which i intend to do. Shrooms basically are an extraction themselves….you have to have the right things to grow them a shroom is a type of fungus it just doesnt grow rapidly like marijuana(why they call it “weed”)

    Comment by CrazyMetalKidd — February 6, 2010 @ 4:21 am

  12. @Crazy. Marijuana and Tobacco are not the only plants that don’t need special extraction. Peyote and “shrooms” are some that come to mind. If we all followed the idea of “all things in moderation” then sure, it would be grand but it’s not so simple. Take a look at the effect of just alcohol on tribes and towns in Alaska.

    And if marijuana was made legal, do you not think a company would not alter the plant in a way to make it more ‘appealing’. Don’t see many people complaining about tobacco.

  17. @dddproject hahaha no…all natural drugs need to be extracted in a certain way to get the FULL effects of it., execpt marijuana and tabacco, marijuana and tabacco are the only things you can pick and dry then just smoke, and tabacco is sprayed with nicoteen before its packed in a tube by a machine increasing the nicoteen in cigerattes by shittons thus making you addicted.Thats why marijuana needs to be legalized its not a drug its an herb i mean just fucking legalize it already US shit!

  20. Oh, I only believe about 75% of what I read on the internet. Last year I actually decided to read & reply to every junk email I got, and I have now won 3 international lotteries, own land in Nigeria(I haven’t seen it yet, but they sent me great photos), and I am probably marrying a woman from Thailand(can’t wait to meet her!).

  21. don’t believe everything you read on the Internet. btw, you’re fucking stupid lol

  22. Stupid Americans snort this crap- gas, old rags, old mans feet, caustic soda, old nasty buckets, I am sure he washes his hands after he takes a big shit. Better off snorting dog shit.

  23. i live in jersey and i do cocaine on a daily basis caise its fun

  24. To get people hooked. Like all dealers, the first one is free, or just $1.
    Didn’t you ever read about the sodas being shipped out of Brazil? They disolved cocaine into the soda then coked it out of it when it reached the USA.
    Odd thing about the “war on drugs” is that they do very little to eliminate the demand. If people stopped using coke, the market would drop and the dealers would have to get-a-real-job, what a concept!

    Comment by HunterMann — February 6, 2010 @ 9:08 am

  25. Why would they put $100 of cocaine in a $1 soda?
