Part 2: Ecstasy
Using groundbreaking CGI this episode follows the effect of ecstasy on the human body. Over the past
30 years ecstasy has become one of the world's most notorious drugs. No other illegal substance has
had such an effect on fashion, music and how we party. This film follows two recreational ecstasy
users over one night .Through graphic effects the viewer is taken on a journey deep inside the human
body and the programme explains exactly how this powerful substance takes effect on the user's vital
organs. Through the tour of the human body, we learn about the fascinating and often surprising
scientific reasons for how these drugs work and also the damage they can cause. The programme
features interviews with toxicologists, neuro-scientists and medical pharmacologists who explain
what actually happens in your body when you indulge, exploding a few myths in the process. With
access to cutting edge research at the University of Chicago, we find out how ecstasy creates
empathy in the user and how this could one day lead to the drug being used as a life-saving
prescription medicine for use in therapy.

Really enjoyed the show, goes through technical details of what it is doing to the brain & body.
also how the body absorbs it when taken (from its different ways).
