In 1943, Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann accidentally absorbed a tiny amount of LSD through his fingertips and spent the afternoon mildly hallucinating at his desk. Three days later he accidentally took 10 times than the standard recreational dose.
He drank what he believed was a cautiously small dose, and unknowingly took ten times a modern recreational amount with no frame of reference whatsoever.
At precisely 4:20pm on April 19, Hofmann dissolved 250 micrograms in water and drank it.
By 5:00pm his lab journal entries were deteriorating. Dizziness. Anxiety. Visual disturbance. Writing became impossible.
He asked his assistant to take him home. Wartime Basel had banned private cars, so the only option was a bicycle.
He spent the ride convinced his neighbour was a witch and that he had gone permanently insane. April 19 is now celebrated annually as Bicycle Day.
Hofmann later discovered that 20 to 30 micrograms were sufficient for noticeable effects. He had taken more than twelve times that amount.
He lived to 102, took small doses for the rest of his life, and called LSD his "problem child." He never regretted discovering it.
