[edit] Netherlands: Tourist Death

There we're several incidents with tourists in which magic mushrooms supposedly played a part, as far as I know, only one was confirmed. One of the two most well known incidents was of a 17 year old, French girl who jumped of a bridge/construction onto a major road in the centre of Amsterdam (She jumped into the IJ-Tunnel from the perimeter of the Nemo Museum). This can be read in Dutch (internet)media like nu.nl. The second incident concerned what I believe was a British tourist who trashed his hotel-room in Amsterdam. Later reports stated he had a (cannabis induced) psychosis and was not under the influence of magic mushrooms. Since the two stories are more or less mixed up in this article, I will change the article accordingly. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.116.1.128 (talk) 15:23, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
