pot is definitely more benign than ecstacy
Take 500mg edible dose and say that shit

Take ld50 of water and tell me how safe it is. Dumb fuck =)

Although, .5g of pot taken in edible form is not enough
to cause whatever I think you're trying to imply, so...

(BTW, what's the "ld" in "ld60"?)


At least 14 people have died from drinking too much water while doing
sport

Water intoxication, also known as water poisoning or hyperhydration, is
a potentially fatal disturbance in brain functions that results when the
normal balance of electrolytes in the body is pushed outside safe limits
by overhydration.
Under normal circumstances, accidentally consuming too much water is
exceptionally rare.
Nearly all deaths related to water intoxication in normal individuals
have resulted either from water-drinking contests, in which individuals
attempt to consume large amounts of water, or from long bouts of
exercise during which excessive amounts of fluid were consumed.[1] In
addition, water cure, a method of torture in which the victim is forced
to consume excessive amounts of water, can cause water intoxication.
