Cody's Lab on YouTube drank 17 mg of cyanide for a video, but not surprisingly it's now private. Quotes include:

* It tastes like baking soda

* I've got a tremor [in my arm] and my breathing is slightly more rapid

Cyanide fortunately can't accumulate, so it's far less spooky than heavy metals (lead, chromium, mercury), perfluoroalkanes (PFAS), or some other strange organic molecules that might cause cancer.

I have no idea how that guy is still alive after all the things he has gone out of his way to expose himself to.
He has danced very close the edge with his experiments. However, he appears to be very knowledgeable with what he does.
The mercury mouthwash video was really something.
