Tulum is experiencing an explosion of people taking Bufo Alvarius. Also called “speed-toading,” it involves smoking the milked poison of the Sonoran Desert toad in a glass pipe and is considered to be the most powerful hallucinogen in the world. Now, growing numbers of psychedelic tourists are traveling to Tulum where Bufo ceremonies are legal, in search of a life-changing experience. However, there are many reports of profoundly negative experiences, lasting psychosis and allegations of sexual assault during ceremonies. VICE’s Matt Shea visits Tulum to see and experience this new Bufo tourism firsthand, to discover whether taking the world’s most powerful hallucinogen is worth the risk.

Geez that ended sour
Those people at that place are now prosecuted by Police and Goverment in Tulum, high criminal charges are under their belt and many terrible stories came to light, like the wife of Sandoval Kate Maccabe and their organization call “Sonora heart”organization now working under his name as he is banned from many forums and places due to his terrible accusations hence they movers from Bacalar to Tulum looking for new preys, there is also an afroamerican guy know as “Momo” or Mandinka King not featured here but managing a criminal organization doing the same schemes and scams in Playa del Carmen, Tepoztlan, this foreigners feels that they cannot be prosecuted as they are considered expats or immigrants and that could affect tourism image, buts is terrible their activities and their people they are associated with, this really affects the community of Tulum heavily and the reputation as a safety Tourist destination for wellness and healing practices, Im very glad that is was portrayed on the documentary but very sad for the impact on such wonderful tourist destination as Tulum is, I feel the responsibility to denounce this people here and will do anywhere needed as a part of organization defending Tulum community
