Plans to smoke biggest joint stubbed out
23 November 2006
AMSTERDAM: A plan to roll and smoke the world's largest joint was cancelled at short notice in Amsterdam when the organisers realised they could be breaking the law.
"We have now read the small print and realise there could be problems," Thijs Verheij, one of the organisers, was quoted as saying by ANP news agency after consulting Dutch drugs laws.
The group had wanted to roll a 1.5-metre long pure-weed joint, stuffed with 500 grams of marijuana and containing no tobacco, and smoke it in a bar.
It had initially thought the attempt would be legal if 100 people each brought along the five grams of the drug tolerated by Dutch authorities for personal use.
"Unfortunately it looks like this will not be possible," Verheij said.
A police spokesman said: "We would definitely have investigated this. If you make a single joint with half a kilo of cannabis in it, it would cross the line."
Verheij said the group had hoped to beat a record set with a joint containing 100 grams of marijuana. |

that kinda sounds like a logistical nightmare. 100 people, 5 grms of cannabis each.
How many papers would you need to roll it and just how would you go about rolling a joint that big?
Normally it takes about a couple of cones to get me going. so if everyone was like me how many people would it take to smoke it? |
