English subtitles for clip: File:Dzifa can't sit still after she uses Cocaine - Drugslab.webm

1
00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:06,440
I want to do something physical.

2
00:00:06,560 --> 00:00:08,840
I have a match.
-Yes, it's a match.

3
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:15,520
Hi, I'm Nellie.
-And I'm Dzifa.

4
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,400
Welcome to...
-Our Drugslab.

5
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:21,720
Twice a month we test a drug
to see how it affects our body.

6
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:25,080
If you're curious about
a certain drug you want to see...

7
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,560
or if you want us to trip or space
at a particular location...

8
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:31,880
let us know in the comments.

9
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,240
But today we're staying
in our old familiar lab.

10
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:40,480
Vishnevsky, Jelbaru Turay...

11
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:46,680
William Johansson and DDalDay...
-Were all curious about... cocaine.

12
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,320
They want to see you try cocaine.

13
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,960
Cocaine is a white powder
that can be snorted.

14
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,960
It comes from the coca plant,
which grows in South America.

15
00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:00,520
Cocaine is extracted from the leaves
through a chemical process.

16
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:05,560
A coca plant leaf contains
about 0.1 to 0.9 percent cocaine.

17
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:10,720
My zero values are on the board.
-Your heart rate is going to shoot up...

18
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:16,000
because coke is a stimulant.
-There's no safe dose of cocaine.

19
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:20,560
But obviously the more you take
the more the risks increase.

20
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:26,720
It's common that people cut
one gram of cocaine into 15 to 20 lines.

21
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,360
That equals 50 mg per line.

22
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:46,160
Our coke has a purity of 72 percent.
The maximum purity is 89 percent.

23
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:52,720
Cocaine is always cut with something.
Our coke is cut with levamisole.

24
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,800
That's used by veterinarians
to treat parasitic worm infections.

25
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:02,680
It's not directly harmful, but over time
it can decrease your immunity.

26
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:08,120
It's still rubbish. The drug gets less
pure as it goes from dealer to dealer.

27
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:13,680
But there are also dealers
who cut it with detergent or other shit.

28
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:18,640
So always have your cocaine tested.
You never know what it may contain.

29
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:20,520
I find it quite intense.

30
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:26,640
I've noticed that it's often used
in the Amsterdam club scene.

31
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:33,440
I sometimes wonder if people
are aware of the story behind it.

32
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,240
People have been chewing
on coca leaves for 5000 years.

33
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,240
At a certain point,
there was a man, Albert Niemann...

34
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,800
who managed to extract cocaine
from the leaves.

35
00:02:44,920 --> 00:02:48,760
For the Incas the coca plant
was a very sacred plant.

36
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:53,560
It takes three minutes to kick in,
so we'll see the effects quickly.

37
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,880
It lasts about 30 minutes.

38
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,440
So short it's hardly worth it.
-That's really absurd.

39
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,400
This will be intense.
What's going to happen?

40
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,640
60 percent of the cocaine
is absorbed by your nasal mucosa.

41
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,960
The remaining 40 percent goes via
your oesophagus into your stomach...

42
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,200
and is then absorbed
by your blood stream.

43
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,560
Cocaine influences
the neurotransmitters in your brain.

44
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:34,320
These substances produce
dopamine and noradrenaline.

45
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:39,600
You're familiar with dopamine.
That's released when you go jogging...

46
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:45,040
or when you eat dark chocolate.
That produces a 'happiness hormone'.

47
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,600
Noradrenaline regulates
your fight or flight system.

48
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,800
That's what happens when
you're in stress and ready to run.

49
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:59,400
It's bizarre that it kicks in so quickly.
You can see it happen live on camera.

50
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,920
You're staring at me.
-I'm looking at your face.

51
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,040
Can you see the effects?

52
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:17,000
Do you feel anything?
-I feel worked up, but that's not chill.

53
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:22,640
That's how I normally feel
and I always have to tone it down a bit.

54
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,120
I've noticed that sometimes
I'm too talkative and over-excited.

55
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,720
And now with cocaine,
I can no longer hold it back.

56
00:04:30,840 --> 00:04:37,840
When I have the urge to touch things,
I tell myself not to do it, but now...

57
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:44,960
I can already feel...
that I won't be able to stop myself.

58
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,480
I want to do something physical.

59
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:52,280
I'd be really good at closing tonnes
of envelopes or something now.

60
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,200
Or type something really fast.

61
00:04:55,320 --> 00:05:01,000
That's not weird, because lots of people
in the business world are addicted...

62
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:06,320
because it gives such an energy boost
and allows you to really focus on work.

63
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,920
Do you have a job for me?
-I have a job for you.

64
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:16,600
Our amazing lab is at our disposal.
Arrange these items from small to large.

65
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,840
Stop the clock.
-Two minutes, 15 seconds.

66
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:30,000
Now you have to put it all back in place.
Do you remember where it all goes?

67
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:37,480
It's all wrong, but I was fast.
-That's true. You were really fast.

68
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:44,600
Were you afraid to make mistakes?
-No. It was nice to focus on a task.

69
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,640
I can feel movement in my bowels.
-Really?

70
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,480
I think I'll be able to take a nice...
-Crap.

71
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,960
I could go now.
-It's an actual side effect, so is peeing.

72
00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:01,080
I can feel that too.
I can feel it all flowing down.

73
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:07,560
It's good that you mentioned it. Cocaine
increases the tension on your bowels.

74
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:12,600
It makes you feel like you need to crap.
-Now I need to go more than before.

75
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,640
You can go if you want.
-I will.

76
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,040
Everything for science, guys.

77
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,520
45 minutes have gone by now.

78
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,840
My energy level went like this
and now I'm here.

79
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:29,040
It's fine, because that's where I started,
but I want to go like this again.

80
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:34,080
It's silly, your initial feeling was fine,
but coke makes you want to return to it.

81
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,240
Cocaine is very addictive,
especially psychologically...

82
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:42,840
because you get cravings
to experience that rush and kick again...

83
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:48,000
or the energy to keep on working.
You can also get withdrawal symptoms.

84
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:53,240
These are the physical effects
of quitting or taking less of a drug.

85
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,280
With cocaine these include
melancholy and depression.

86
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:03,640
I think it's scary that you can do this
without other people noticing it...

87
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,280
but meanwhile,
it's a very intense substance.

88
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,520
Lots of people take cocaine
for the social aspect...

89
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:15,760
so they become more confident,
more talkative and feel cooler.

90
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,920
That gave us a great idea.
You're single, right?

91
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,200
That's right, but I'm looking.

92
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:28,200
So we thought it'd be a great idea
to create a dating profile for you.

93
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,360
Here are two lines of 25 mg.
-That's correct.

94
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,680
You should wait at least 30 minutes
before taking seconds...

95
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,640
to be sure that the effects
of the previous lines have worn off.

96
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:43,520
95 percent of people who do coke,
do this in combination with alcohol.

97
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,320
That's bizarre.
-That's really a lot.

98
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,560
People almost always drink alcohol
when they do coke.

99
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,840
That's even more detrimental
than just cocaine use...

100
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:58,560
When you mix cocaine and alcohol
your body produces cocaethylene.

101
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:02,200
It's very detrimental to the liver
and puts more stress on the heart.

102
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:06,320
What you see is
that when people drink alcohol...

103
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:10,280
they lose their inhibitions
and then they do coke.

104
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,160
And then next time they think:
'I won't do coke again'.

105
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,080
But when they drink
and lose their inhibitions...

106
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,360
it's hard not to order coke again.

107
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,080
Then they call the dealer
and they're hooked.

108
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:28,440
It's a web you can get entangled in.
That's what scares me.

109
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:32,640
We're talking about
the intense consequences of coke...

110
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:38,480
just before you're about to do it.
We have a fun test I'm curious about.

111
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,880
You're going to take seconds
so that you're at your peak again.

112
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,680
Dzifa is about to create a dating profile.

113
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,600
It says: My best photo.
Go ahead and make a selfie.

114
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,400
Maybe I should add the heart
to influence the subconsciousness.

115
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,960
What's my best side?

116
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,960
You're making me nervous,
because you're looking at me.

117
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:14,400
Maybe I should do a bit more of this.
Yes, that's it.

118
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,880
What do you like about yourself?
-I like my hairdo at the moment.

119
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,800
I like it that my eyes are black,
just like a teddy bear.

120
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,480
And my teeth, straight and white.

121
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:31,160
About me: 'Hi, I'm Dzifa, a cheerful,
23 year old woman who is always busy.

122
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,480
I have a good taste in music
and I'm a great cook.

123
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:39,800
If I love you, I'm always there for you.
Bad energies stay far away.'

124
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,240
What do you think?
-It's great.

125
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:50,640
Oh, here are the men.
No. No. No.

126
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:56,280
He's cute. Should I hit 'like'?
-Check if he has more photos.

127
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,080
You become less picky.
-I have a match.

128
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,720
Yes, we have a match.
-Finally. Henk.

129
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:07,800
'Hey Henk',
you don't hear that name too often.

130
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,840
A typical Dutch name, but whatever.

131
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:17,360
'Sorry, but I'm at work.
I'll send you a message later, okay?'

132
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:21,880
I'm also at work.
-But this is not the same.

133
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,720
I was looking forward to this,
but now I think it's too much fuss.

134
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:31,560
The reason I haven't created a profile
is because I don't want to be judged...

135
00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:37,800
but now I'm not preoccupied with that.
I'm focused on judging them now.

136
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,520
You hear all these stories about coke,
which make you think:

137
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:46,560
Golly, you get more energy
for half an hour and then it's over.

138
00:10:46,680 --> 00:10:49,000
I think it's the same as with cigarettes.

139
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:53,920
When you do it, you feel you need it,
especially when you go out.

140
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:58,040
But when you test it in a boring lab...

141
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:04,760
you realise that there's not much to it.
You just feel a bit more energetic.

142
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:09,640
It's a selfish drug. I'm curious
if you're going to contact Henk...

143
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,920
but we'll find that out
in the day after video.

144
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,520
It's a day later.
I feel like my old self again.

145
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,440
Yesterday, I had a dry mouth all day.

146
00:11:20,560 --> 00:11:23,960
I didn't sleep too well at night.

147
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:28,720
I could feel that my body
wasn't feeling entirely 100 percent.

148
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,240
I felt energetic when I was active
on Tinder. That was fun.

149
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:37,400
But considering that I didn't feel great
yesterday during the day and evening...

150
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:42,040
I'm going to stick with coffee next time,
but now I know what it's like.

151
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:48,800
Thanks for watching. If you have
any ideas for a new drug or location...

152
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,560
let us know in the comments.
Until next time. Bye.
