Which is the most dangerous poison?

Asked by 9doomedtodie (3113points) March 7th, 2010

I have ever heard about KCN.I think it’s a hazardous poison which gives you death within a minute.
Do you know any other type of poisons?

What do you mean by “dangerous”?

If taken in too large of quantities, Tequila. Too much and you wish you could get your hands on Black Mamba venom.

ucme's avatar

Too much Tequila & you may wind up in the slammer.

Sorry but I find it disturbing that you even ask this question? You dont need to know what the most dangerous poison is, why would you, other then to kill someone with it? Very disturbing O_o!

Most Poisonous Chemical Compounds

You could probably wikipedia some of these and find out more about them and exactly how deadly they are.

A lot of completely unhelpful answers here. “Love”? “Tequila”? “Bullshit”? C’mon, the poster asked a valid question.

Hydrofluoric acid is incredibly nasty stuff although I guess not technically a poison. One of the first researchers to work with the chemical spilled a few tiny droplets on his leg and immediately dived into a swimming pool to try and negate the effects. He still died.

I find it interesting that botox is the #2 most dangerous poison according to that list. Oh yeah, let’s inject it into our faces!

Sarin is pretty deadly (kills you within a very short time), as are most of the organophosphate nerve agents.

Pure nicotine is twice as deadly as the same amount of arsenic. One drop will kill a man quick.

@bluesandblahs notice the exclamation! It should clue you that it’s not a serious answer.

Antimatter. Swallow a few micrograms and it will give you death within a split second.

Lightlyseared's avatar

@mattbrowne I have had antimatter injected into me and I did not explode and die.

Diet Coke, but you have to drink a full bathtub of it.

(eat lots of salty pretzels and potato chips, that will help your thirst!)

Lightlyseared's avatar

Choclate. Although the LD50 for humans is about 26lbs.

@Lightlyseared – The dose makes the poison.
