This is what a Meth Lab looks like.


I took this picture a year or so ago when one of my neighbors got busted trying to make his own Methamphetamine. According to the firemen this was a simple "One Pot" lab which of course makes the worse mess. The Fire Department got called because his spilled the stuff all over himself and got sick. The smell from a block away was horrible how could they have stood it locked inside that house?

Not a poker post.

  1. Can't methamphetamine literally blow up the house they are making it in? LOL at him spilling it on himself! Hahaha!

  2. The chemicals used in the process are pretty simple. You probably have most of them under your kitchen sink. Firemen hate kitchen fire because of all the caustic chemicals (ie, drain cleaner, ammonia, bleach, etc) people store there. The explosion risk really occurs when they are trying to break down the ephedrine from whatever source they can get thier hands on. There is a story of a lady who blew her house up and killing her 4 kids by boiling Coleman fuel on a gas stove while trying to break down sudafed.
