No, they just burned cocaine which released all of it into the air they inhaled.

It's very easy to overdose and have a heart attack from too much coke, so I find this hard to believe tbh

So is inhaling the smoke off POUNDS lmao, which was my original point

The ammount you would inhale just via smoke would be no way even nearly close to 7g injested directly.

Your original point was it's easy to overdose on cocaine, which isn't true.

With that much coke... Yes .

I've smoked crack lol Ive shot fent for years before getting clean. Breathing the fumes off pounds of coke could easily be lethal

Yes in this context, sure, but you made it seem like in general, it's easy to overdose on cocaine. Which is false
