I'm sure the Charlottesville TV news crew will set us all straight.

This news item is about the dangers of a legal drug known to the kids as "Salvia".

"I saw a car go by and I was looking at the stars, but I really thought the car was going in the stars at the beat of the music," said Zac, a college student.

This may sound like a bad dream, but it’s what Zac saw after smoking the herb Salvia for the first time at a friend's party.

“A guy knew what would happen when I smoked it, so he tried to scare me, he said snakes were crawling on my legs and I was running around my house,” Zac said.

He added he was so scared; it was an experience he will never forget.

So what is it about salvia that's so frightening?

“You feel dissociated, you come away from you body. I smoked it and felt like I was going into the sky and looking down on my body,” explained Zac.
