Belushi’s 50-50 odds

One Friday in 1979, Keith Richards blew into town and invited John Belushi to join him at a party. The pair spent most of the night snorting cocaine. The next morning, Belushi staggered into NBC's studio at Rockefeller Center for a "Saturday Night Live" dress rehearsal. Producer Lorne Michaels was soon informed by a doctor that if Belushi performed as scheduled there was a 50-50 risk he would die. Michaels, who badly needed Belushi on camera, looked at the doctor and replied, "I can live with those odds."

Princess Leia snorts snow on Hoth

During the filming of the Star Wars movies a lot of marijuana was smoked. But the princess of princesses, Carrie Fisher, didn't stop there. While on the set of the ice planet, from The Empire Strikes Back, Carrie snorted cocaine. "I didn't even like coke that much, it was just a case of getting on whatever train I needed to take to get high." Later when filming Blues Brothers, with John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd, Carrie was often drunk and did so much drugs that even Belushi was warning her that she had a problem. And you know you do to much when even Mr Excess himself tells you so.

A six-day cocaine binge

Robert Louis Stevenson, the author of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, wrote his entire masterpiece in six days and six nights, all whilst on one hell of a cocaine bender. Even Stevenson's wife, Fanny, was amazed that her husband managed to put 60,000 words on paper in just under one week. To put this in perspective, Stephen King, one of today's most productive writers, writes only about 1,000 words a day.
