I watched a TV program in the ilk of Jackass, but better, where they snorted chilli powder :D

you should try snorting no dose or other things with caffine in them.... that'll wake you up pretty fast...
don't snort ephedra though.... that'll make you want to rip your nose off

dont they cut away when they snort it....i doubt they are actually snorting anything....i cant rember any movie where they actually show them snorting it

usually its a wide angle shot of them with the tube bending down , then a close up shot of the tube and the coke being snorted then back to wideangle showing their reaction

Casino? If I recall correctly, they show Sharon Stone doing lines off a mirror. ::shrug::

I snorted some of that Tearjerker sour mouth spray once. We were all drunk and passing it around like idiots. That stuff burned sooooo bad but cleared the sinuses up nicely.

Good question. I thought about starting a thread about this a few weeks ago but got side tracked and forgot about it.

There are many movies where they show actors snorting stuff, i want to know what it is.

Coke doesn't burn at all, maybe you're thinking of the drip in the back of your throat. But as far as it burning when you snort it up your nose, not really.

Chong: I need some coke.
Pharmacist: Do you want a straw with that?
Chong: Sure
*Pharmacist hands Chong a can of cocacola with a straw in it...

I have seen Christopher and Furio do it on the Sopranos a few times.

I slightly remember watching a movie documentry once, and they showed how the actor would play the part to the point where it looks like he's snorting something. Then after, they put in special effects to ad the cocaine looking substance to the reel by cutting the film.

They use a vacuum or something to give it that upwards sucking look.

It's doesnt burn, it stings for a bit (first time) because of the novocaine and how well it is cut. Thats MO from, my experience.

If you do it enough you can put holes in your nose though.
