Ideal moment of incredible high.

    Id like to know what the most incredible rush/high/thrill a human can have is.

    Ideally it has to be momentary rather than long term.

    Winning money, landing a giant snowboard jump, surfing a 50ft wave, drugs, sex, fame, saving a life, whatever.

    Moral, physical, spiritual, chemical, sexual, you name it.

    Fook your little rules! the "most ideal moment of incredible high" has to be witnessing your newborn come into the world.

    Coming up on e would be up there I suppose.

    The point where Picard points his hand at the view screen in an authoritative manner and says 'Engage' cooly and professionally, propelling a 100,000 tonne star ship to 700 times the speed of light.

    First hit of Crystal Meth I would presume. But only the blue stuff.

    It's so good, I am thinking of telling my parents to give it a try. I actually think everyone should experience the total and utter happiness you get with ecstasy at least once.

    Are there even any proper E's around anymore? I've not heard of it in a while. Or mdma.

    Do people still do it? Or are they doing other stuff now?

    Yeah, I'd have to imagine it would be drug-related.
    People seem to like heroin quite a bit, so maybe that's pretty awesome.

    Sheikra in Busch gardens is the one that did it for me. Must get to Alton towers.

    Driving a one seater formula sheane car would be mine. Such a surreal and addictive feeling

    Watching Hurricane Fly winning the Champion Hurdle in March!

    Or else backing a horse ante post for a big race months/weeks in advance, you tell anyone that will listen it'll win, on the day it scoots 4 lengths clear in the final furlong and pisses up.

    1) You've won a few quid
    2) Your opinion has been vindicated
    3) Some of your mates have also won a few quid

    The adrenalin rush (for me anyway) is something else!

    no no, you pass on joints, not heroin, needle sharing is dangerous don't ya know?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,041 ✭✭✭Seachmall


    As others have said ecstasy probably has to be up there, but I don't think it compares to more meaningful achievements if only because of it's short duration and "superficialness".

    Must say it was the time I completed a bungee jump. The odd sensation of knowing I was being held up by what seemed like only a rope, plus being able to see the concrete ground from my vantage point, made surviving it feel like I could do anything for a couple of hours.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,400 ✭✭✭lukesmom


    Yeah your first E nothing beats that rush of euphoria wow but the comedown ain't worth it after a while

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,400 ✭✭✭lukesmom


    I'd say heroin actually as its so addictive so must feel amazing. Only smoked it twice and puked so can't actually give opinion of the high. From anything I ever took its got to be ecstasy those Mitsubishis back in the day. Pure muck though mess with your head. These days the only natural high I get is in bed.

    Interestingly enough you get a comparable high from fighting as you do from sex (at least in terms of dopamine).

    That feeling of absolute calm and tranquillity post surgery were you're in a dream world coming down from general anaesthetic and they've begun pumping you full of morphine.

    Only to have it soon shattered when you become lucid, find yourself in hospital with a hole in your abdomen. Ow!

    I remember my first e. I was afraid to take one at first, but my friends said it would be the best feeling of your life and holy fúck it was!

    I was sitting on a chair and it just hit me, hard to explain but it's just happiness. We took them at 1am, and we walked to a 24hr Tesco, we got back in my friends house at 6am.

    Was my first and only time taking them. Try everything once, get the most experiences out of life and it was worth it :)

    makes sense. dopamine is the reward chemical for natural processes afterall

    along with sport/physical work and intended bodily functions

    we are wired to like to do what we need to survive

    Wacker I often find your sexually obsessive posts tiresome, but on this occasion I really have to give it to you -

    That was pure quality :D

    Landing a trick you've been practicing for ages.

    Jumping off high platforms into water.

    Water slides.

    Winning money.

    Just having the carefree feeling.

    I have never had Heroin but I remember watching that film Trainspotting with a recovering addict and he reckoned the movie was spot on. Incredible highs, but at a devastating cost.

    At least the Bed high does not have such a big cost (depending on who you are with!)

    yes, you can still get very good mdma,
    i know because i have a friend that uses it. a lot of people still using it too

    I'd recommend the casual heroin brigade on here watch Requiem For A Dream if they haven't already. It's a lot more grim and hard hitting than Trainspotting.

    At the risk of being decried as an un loving parent - the 2nd one beats the first hands down. I just don't get the whole miracle of child birth bollox, twice i've been there to witness my kids being born and both times I found the experience nothing short of horrific. The only overwhelming emotion I felt was relief that the whole thing was over and thankfully all went well for both the mother and baby - it's not the best moment of your life or anything like it, it's a horrible, horrible experience and one i'd really rather avoid.
    Ecstasy on the other hand - words can't describe how good that is!

    Having a good workout at the gym creates an amazing feeling, for me, personally.

    Jesus, don't - it's an unmitigated pile of shíte. I hate that film, in fact I hate all aronofskis films. Even Mila Kunis and Natalie Portman lezing off can't save the shíte he produces!

    Back when I used to cycle, I found winning races to be an incredible high, especially when it was a well-fought race. And, as mentioned previously, rollercoasters are up there too. Best one for me, so far, has to be Deja Vu in at Six Flags Magic Mountain.


    (the ride starts at 1:09)
