Scopolamine is a big deal in Medellin. There are even reports of tourists being approached on the street and offered "a spray of cologne" by a sketchy local. The spray is 20% cologne and 80% scopolamine. When the tourist blanks out and goes gaga, he is steered into a back alley and beaten and robbed.

I've heard this one too, but it seems it's not as potent as it is claimed to be on social media. I'd be more worried about the spiked drink. A hottie can easily distract a hard dick, and boom, you're out.



"Now, according to reports, the drug has been used on “dozens” of victims in Paris, and three people have been arrested. The Daily Telegraph suggests that two women had encouraged their victims to breathe in the drug, then got the victims to take them home where they stole money and jewellery.

“You get these scare stories and they have no toxicology, so nobody knows what it is,” says Val Curran, professor of pharmacology at UCL’s Clinical Pharmacology Unit. “The idea that it is scopolamine is a bit far-fetched, because it could be anything.”

Dr Les King, chemist and former forensic scientist, agrees. The idea that someone could become zombified after someone blows powder into their face “seems pretty unlikely for a start”. There is no evidence it is being used in Europe, he says. “The European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction has never had any mention of scopolamine being used in this way.”

Colombia is so unsafe right now that I don't plan on visiting for another two or three years... even Brazil is much safer now.

I watched that youtube vid a few weeks ago as well, that scope stuff really scares me away from going down there. Here is another one I recently watched where a guy tried to set up a life there but just couldn't get past these issues. Even tried to be safe taking an Uber instead of a taxi and the driver blew some white dust in his face while he was in the back seat and he was passed out for a long time when he made it back to his room. Scary.
