an acid trip of an experiment

I stumbled upon this online today. It was titled “Drawings under the influence of LSD” and only carried this description:

The artist was given a dose of LSD and free access to an activity box full of crayons and pencils.
I’ll be honest, there’s a side to me that wonders if this is real and another that is inspired by it, so I thought I’d share. See the original post here. It’s long so give it a second to load…

The use of the phrase "the outline of my hand is going weird" at 2 hours and 32 minutes proves that this is not a fake.

Just sayin...

As far as I know that experiment is real, I experimented heavily with lsd from age 15-19 and came across that article several times and from what I gather was an honest experiment that did in fact happen. Having done LSD it seems even more probable that those pictures are for real.
