•Student who died at Capilano Suspension Bridge warned earlier about going over barriers
VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - There's now word the California student who died after falling from the Capilano Suspension Bridge in North Vancouver had taken LSD earlier in the day. The Vancouver Sun has received a copy of the coroner's report, which shows 17-year-old Daniel Cho had dropped acid with two other students during a bus ride from Seattle to Vancouver in June.
The coroner found LSD was a contributing factor to Cho's death, although it's still being called accidental.
Chaperones had noticed Cho acting strangely, while other witnesses saw him trying to climb a railing. He had been warned to stop going over the barriers, but ignored the warnings and fell 30 meters into the canyon.
Daniel Cho was a student at Aragon High School, south of San Francisco. His class was visiting the Lower Mainland for a grad trip.
LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) is a hallucinogen that is commonly referred to as "acid". It is manufactured from lysergic acid which is made from a fungus (ergotamine tartrate) that grows on rye and other grains. Pure LSD is a white, odourless and slightly bitter crystalline powder. It is very potent- pure LSD the size of a small pill is enough for approximately 3,000 doses.
