YouTube Is Hosting Dozens Of Videos Showing People How To Make THC Vape Oil

As health agencies scramble to control a rash of mysterious vaping-related lung injuries, YouTube is playing host to dozens of videos that offer step-by-step instructions on how to make black-market THC vape oil. Some of these videos, which are rife with safety hazards, including the use of potentially harmful chemicals, have been viewed millions of times.

The proliferation of the videos underscores the challenge of pinning down the cause, or causes, of the outbreak. Nearly 1,300 lung injuries, including 26 deaths, have been confirmed in every state but Alaska, the CDC said Thursday, and in 76% of cases, patients have reported vaping THC products. Contaminants in the vaping liquids, such as vitamin E acetate used as a “thickener,” have come under suspicion as culprits.

“I cannot overstate the seriousness of these lung injuries,” Anne Schuchat, principal deputy director of the CDC, said in a news conference on Friday. In response to the outbreak, the CDC and the FDA have urged people to stop vaping THC. “Some new, risky practices in preparation of these materials” may be causing the illnesses, Schuchat added.

In 10 videos reviewed by BuzzFeed News, hosts transform cannabis flowers into oils with the help of casserole dishes, spatulas, mason jars, ovens, hair straighteners, and equipment and chemicals bought online. Their how-to guides have drawn audiences in the hundreds of thousands, and as high as 1 or 2 million in some cases. (BuzzFeed News is not linking to these videos in this story.)

“We’re going to show you today how to make a marijuana-infused e-liquid, so you can vape it as you would in a normal cigarette,” said a man in a video titled “How To Make Marijuana E-Cig Liquid / E-liquid” (which has received 1.4 million views) on the channel Lets Vape, which has north of 24,000 subscribers and appears to be based in Europe. “Now it’s very simple. We have a kit ready that will make this really, really easy for you.”

But the process is in fact complex and can also be unsafe, according to experts who reviewed the videos. Much can go wrong along the way, from pesticides in cannabis to heavy metals in cartridges — all of which could go undetected by the average person. Some of the solvents used in the instructional YouTube videos could also be toxic if overheated, experts said.

“There is nothing safe about video demonstrations on how to create vaping liquids, whether they are nicotine or THC as both have been proven to be harmful — in kitchens or other environments,” Lawrence Weinstein, chief medical officer of the American Addiction Centers, told BuzzFeed News by email. “The sheer number of these videos are troubling.”

Immediately after being contacted by BuzzFeed News, YouTube took down some of the flagged videos, but did not respond to questions about why those videos violated its rules and others did not. One of the videos belonged to Lets Vape, which could not be reached for comment because it does not provide any contact information.

“YouTube is a community site with clear policies that prohibit inappropriate content, including material that depicts minors smoking or misusing any type of illegal or regulated substances,” YouTube spokesperson Farshad Shadloo said by email. “From a content policy perspective, we generally do not restrict/prohibit content that depicts vaping on our platform — unless it is in the form of a challenge or it is a depiction of minor vaping.”

Dan Vergano / BuzzFeed News

Many of the THC products implicated in the recent outbreak were bought on the black market from brands of ambiguous origin, like Dank Vapes, and through hard-to-trace sources like friends, dealers, and street vendors, according to state health agencies in New York, Illinois, and Wisconsin. Around 13% of patients claim they had only vaped nicotine products, though some may be reluctant to admit to using THC.

Social media is also playing a role in the crisis, health professionals acknowledge. On Tuesday, the head of the American Medical Association asked five e-commerce companies — Amazon, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Microsoft — to work harder to halt sales of illicit vaping materials, including the cartridges that some users refill with liquid they learned how to make on YouTube.

Refillable vaping may be growing in popularity among young e-cigarette users. Some marketing data suggests that refillable vape cartridges have greatly increased in popularity since 2017, health policy expert Jidong Huang of Georgia State University told BuzzFeed News, driven by price: For example, a single-use Juul nicotine pod might cost $4 against a typical $20 bottle of refillable nicotine vaping liquid, which can have 20 to 30 uses. “It’s so much cheaper,” Huang said.

It’s not clear how many home cooks have been inspired to brew their own THC vaping liquid by YouTube videos, many of which come with warnings that they should only be imitated in places where cannabis is legal. And the methods on display largely seem to be for making small batches of oils, so it is unlikely they could also be used for large-scale productions.

Still, the home-cooking videos offer essentially no safety testing of the products they create, and present multiple ways that dangerous contaminants might get into the vaping liquids, experts say.

First, the cannabis used by people following their recipe might be contaminated with pesticides.

“Most [cannabis] flower that’s not on the regulated market is likely going to have some type of pesticide or fungicide in there,” said Myron Ronay, CEO of BelCosta Labs, which provides cannabis-testing services for regulated manufacturers in California. Pesticides can be present even at very low levels that would go undetected by home equipment, he said.

The results can be dangerous. The fungicide myclobutanil, for example, can transform into hydrogen cyanide when heated. Another pesticide commonly found on unregulated cannabis is chlorpyrifos, which has been linked to brain damage in children and was recently banned in California.

And because of the process required to extract THC into an oil, people who vape are exposed to much higher concentrations of pesticides than people who smoke, vaping safety researcher Jenny Wiley of RTI International told BuzzFeed News.

Other potential dangers lurk in the ingredients added to the THC for the extractions. Several of the videos reviewed by BuzzFeed News recommend using propylene glycol as a cutting agent to make the oils smoother, for example. But if heated beyond 450 degrees, propylene glycol turns into formaldehyde.

The cartridges — the overwhelming majority of which are cheaply sourced from China — might also contain heavy metals, like lead and cadmium, that can leach into people’s lungs once heated.

The overarching challenge is that home cooks have almost no way of ensuring that what they’re using is safe and toxin-free, Ronay said. In contrast, legitimate suppliers in states where marijuana is legalized are required to test ingredients at every step of the way before a product is sold.

“Even if these people can get clean flower, can get clean vape pens, how do they know all the individual components they’re sourcing with and making the THC liquid, how do they know all the components are good and clean?” Ronay said. “They have no idea. They’re just making assumptions.”

But Ronay argued that the videos shouldn’t necessarily be taken down, either, since cannabis is legal in some places.

Vaping-related injuries have now been confirmed in every state but Alaska.

Reached for comment, the video creators defended their channels.

Jordan Carrasquillo of New York, who runs a channel called New Amsterdam Vape with more than 69,000 subscribers, racked up more than 1.6 million views on a 2016 tutorial for beginners on making e-liquid. YouTube removed it Thursday after an inquiry from BuzzFeed News, saying that “content intending to sell certain illegal or regulated goods and services, such as drugs or pharmaceuticals without a prescription, is not allowed on YouTube.”

Carrasquillo said by email that he believes that vaping can be useful and safe, at least compared to smoking. “I spent a lot of time researching for my tutorial videos so they would be as in-depth as possible, covering all the known techniques for making e-liquid and operating vape devices in a safe manner,” he wrote.

Matt Lamb is the owner of RuffHouse Studios, a cannabis product review site in Los Angeles, which has published hundreds of videos on YouTube in the last eight years. In the beginning, YouTube encouraged them to build up the channel, Lamb said, and even trained his staff on how to use camera equipment.

After BuzzFeed News inquired about two 2017 videos titled “How To Make Weed e Cig Juice,” Lamb unlisted them, making them unsearchable but still online. He said that he is keeping up those videos to be transparent, in case they are useful to law enforcement or health officials, and he hopes that authorities find out what is causing the illnesses. He added that he does not make money off any of his videos, as YouTube has in recent years taken away paid ads from his channel. (A YouTube spokesperson said, “Under our longstanding advertising policy against recreational drugs and drug-related content, videos that promote or feature recreational drugs are not permitted to show ads.”)

Still, Lamb believes that his videos can’t be blamed for this year’s outbreak. “The illnesses have happened in the matter of the last couple of months, and from the reports that I’ve read, have happened suddenly,” he said. “If these videos were causing the problem, the problem would have risen back when the videos were being viewed.”

He also believes that home-brewing can be safer than some alternatives. “If you’re showing people how to make it at home … it’s helping people to avoid being taken advantage of by some off-market brand and some convenience store in downtown with no real address or anything to go back to,” he said.

A representative for 760 Glass, whose DIY videos includes one with more than 1.5 million views, said that none of the products used in their clips contain harmful chemicals like vitamin E acetate. “We believe that using the technique in the video to make your own solventless extract, and then adding only natural terpenes, is the only way the user can be absolutely sure that their product is free from any harmful adulterants,” they said via email.

Other channels did not return requests for comment or did not have available contact information.

A representative of the Drug Enforcement Administration, which regulates marijuana as a Schedule I drug, said the content of these videos is the FDA’s problem under a 2018 law that moved products with low concentrations of THC, below 0.3%, out of its purview. Asked about vaping oils with high concentrations of THC (some videos claim concentrations above 50% THC), DEA spokesperson Mary Brandenberger told BuzzFeed News, “I think you still have to check with CDC or FDA on that.” An FDA spokesperson, in response, said he needed to look into what regulatory authority his agency possessed over the videos.

“Anybody can post to YouTube,” said Wiley of RTI International. “Without being preachy or alarmist, it really matters that people take some care what they are putting in their lungs.”

Agricultural products company Cargill consolidating Texas, Oklahoma operations in DFW – Dallas Business Journal

In an effort to improve capacity and supply chain efficiency, as well as consolidate its regional operations, Cargill Protein is combining its San Antonio and Oklahoma City operations into a single hub in Dallas-Fort Worth.

The Minneapolis-based company did not disclose where the facility will be located, but said it will be operated by a contractor and begin serving customers in fall 2018.

Cargill also has multiple meat processing facilities in DFW.

“The DFW area was the logical choice for Cargill to centralize our regional warehousing operation as it has an excellent warehouse, distribution and logistics infrastructure and major highways to all of our key markets in the region,” Rick Johnson, Cargill’s food distribution general manager, said in a prepared statement. “It allows Cargill to scale our growth by providing customers greater capacity, more product variety and more efficient distribution.”

Here’s a look at other recently-brokered real estate deals across North Texas:

Hotels/leisure

Columbia Sussex, a national franchiser of Marriott hotels, has purchased The Intercontinental Dallas, located at 15201 Dallas Parkway in Addison. The Kentucky-based firm plans to rebrand the lodging to Renaissance Dallas Addison and renovations are already underway to improve the property’s ballrooms, meeting spaces and pre-function areas.

Restaurants and retail

Real estate services firm JLL has negotiated a lease for North Texas-based healthy concept Nature’s Plate at 11811 Preston Road, Ste. 101 in Dallas. It will be the eatery’s second full-service location and is expected to open in April. JLL vice presidents Andrew Wiley and Michael Meaden represented Nature’s Plate in negotiations, while Leon Capital Group’s Ryan Griffin represented the landlord.Grocer WinCo Foods will open an 82,077-square-foot store in Carrollton on March 29, its 10th in North Texas. Kevie Beard, McGregor Converse, Jonathan Cooper and Theo Thompson of Venture Commercial represented WinCo in landing the lease, located at the northeast corner of Josey Lane and the President George Bush Turnpike. Matt Luedtke and Steve Gray with The Weitzman Group represented the landlord.Nanglo Indian Restaurant has signed a lease for 3,308 square feet at the southwest corner of Highway 121 and Glade Road in Euless. The Retail Connection brokers David Levinson and Jack Weir helped facilitate the lease for Nanglo.Desire Salon will open a 1,080-square-foot shop at 380 Towne Crossing in McKinney. David Levinson, a broker with The Retail Connection, along with Taylor Cluff, a broker with DuWest Commercial, helped negotiate the lease.

Office

Commercial real estate investment services firm Marcus & Millchap (NYSE:MMI) sold Colleyville Square, a 21,617-square-foot office property, on behalf of a private investor out of Canada. The buyer was undisclosed. Located at 6221 Colleyville Blvd. in Colleyville, the property includes office, medical and retail tenants.The Chase Bank tower in Coppell has sold to a California investor, the Dallas Morning News reported.

Popular Midcentury Modern Homes Are Fetching Top Dollar

Joe Schmelzer for The Wall Street Journal

Architect Reja Bakh specializes in international mega projects, such as the cultural center and hotel complex he is designing in Beijing. But the project that has captured his imagination involves a tiny glass and stucco house in New Canaan, Conn., built in 1953. Known as the Alice Ball House, the home was designed by Philip Johnson—an icon of Midcentury Modern architecture.

“I looked at the house and said, ‘I must have this,’ ” said Mr. Bakh, 49 years old, who paid $2.3 million for the 1,500-square-foot rectilinear house in 2015. “We’re not building onto or doing anything to the original house—it would be like buying the Mona Lisa and taking a magic marker to it.”

Midcentury Modern architecture—a catch-all term that encompasses a wide range of styles, from Bauhaus-inspired glass houses to the California ranch home—has gained cultish popularity in recent decades.

For devotees, the classic Atomic Age house—picture a compact geometric design, an open-plan living space and a lot of glass—is as much an art object as a place to call home. But with their modest square footage, outdated kitchens and often idiosyncratic layout, classic Midcentury Modern homes can be a challenge to actually live in. Homeowners face a dilemma: How to modernize a modernist house without diluting its distinctive features? And where are they going to put all their stuff?

“It’s a more reserved, more streamlined way to live. It’s great for someone who is very neat, very organized,” said Hilary Lewis, chief curator of the Glass House—Philip Johnson’s former home in New Canaan—which opened as a museum in 2007. “A lot of people find it a little too restrictive, they want to have nooks and crannies in their home where they can pile up stuff.”

Mr. Bakh, who lives in New York City with his wife and their twin infant sons, has no plans to live in the Ball House. Instead, he is designing a contemporary glass house nearly 10 times its size at an estimated cost of $3 million, which will be tucked behind it on the woodsy 2.2-acre site. The Ball House, which the family uses as a weekend retreat for now, ultimately will become their art gallery.

Architectural connoisseurs such as Mr. Bakh have been drawn in increasing numbers to New Canaan—a wealthy suburb distinguished by its trove of modernist houses designed by a group of Bauhaus-inspired architects dubbed the Harvard Five, who settled there in the 1940s and ’50s.

“In the 1980s, you couldn’t give them away. There would be regular families living in these houses,” said John Hersam, a real-estate broker with William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty in New Canaan, noting that dozens of the midcentury homes were torn down in the ’80s and early ’90s to make way for new construction. “The ownership has really changed. It’s really more a luxury market.”

Mr. Hersam and his colleague Inger Stringfellow are the listing agents for Mr. Johnson’s Wiley House. Built in 1952, it features a cantilevered glass cube with a double-height central living area, set atop a fieldstone base with four small bedrooms. The house, which last sold in 1994 for $990,000, is on the market for $12 million.

“It’s a really significant, internationally known property,” Ms. Stringfellow said.

Nationwide, the West Coast has the largest inventory of Midcentury Modern homes, according to data compiled by realtor.com. (News Corp, owner of The Wall Street Journal, also owns realtor.com.)

Listings of homes for sale that mentioned Midcentury Modern as a selling point were most prevalent in California, Washington and Oregon in 2017, and they were priced at a premium. In Seattle, for example, Midcentury Modern houses were 44% more expensive than comparable homes.

“It’s become so trendy in L.A., a lot of art-world people want Midcentury Modern,” said Barry Sloane, who heads a department specializing in architecturally significant properties for Sotheby’s International Realty in Beverly Hills.

Nevertheless, an undiluted modernist aesthetic poses certain challenges in the current luxury market, as Mr. Sloane discovered when he was the listing agent for a house designed by Richard Neutra, a leading modernist.

“One of the biggest problems was the kitchen. Neutra was never very strong on kitchens. It had linoleum counters, very basic,” Mr. Sloane said. “No one wanted to be the philistine that would come along and rip that out.”

Artists Lari Pittman and Roy Dowell own a 1953 glass house that Mr. Neutra designed for his secretary Dorothy Serulnic on a 5.5-acre hillside property in La Crescenta, Calif. The 1,382-square-foot house, which the couple bought from Ms. Serulnic in 1998 for $470,000, features many distinctive Neutra elements, such as mitered glass walls that dissolve boundaries between indoor space and the landscape, and inventive built-in furniture.

“It’s the type of house that requires you to be conscientious about how you physically deal with it,” said Mr. Pittman, a painter and professor at UCLA, noting Mr. Neutra’s use of “humble materials” such as birch plywood and Formica.

Rather than remodel or upgrade the Neutra after living in it for more than a decade, the couple built a second house on the property—a seven-sided contemporary with an interior courtyard designed by Michael Maltzan —for $2.5 million in 2009. “We quickly realized that to preserve the house and honor the house it would be best to move out of it,” said Mr. Pittman, who now uses the Neutra as a guesthouse.

Mr. Pittman and Mr. Dowell, who built a contemporary house on the property in 2009, now use the Neutra as a guesthouse.

The couple, who want to be closer to their L.A. studios, have listed the compound with its two homes for $4.5 million. Due to their efforts, the Neutra was designated a historic-cultural monument in 2006, safeguarding it against developers who might want to tear it down and preventing future owners from significantly altering its exterior.

“The house is set up for a person who is inclined to a certain connoisseurship of architecture,” Mr. Pittman said. “If you want a screening room and six bedrooms, you shouldn’t buy a Neutra.”

Matt Leaver and Krysta Lin (with Wesley, 18 months) spent four years restoring their 1953 ranch house designed by Cliff May, part of May’s Lakewood Rancho Estates development in Long Beach, Calif.

Jennifer Roberts for The Wall Street Journal

Matt Leaver and Krysta Lin spent four years restoring their 1953 Cliff May ranch house in Long Beach, Calif., which they bought in 2007 for $645,000. A developer, Mr. May widely is credited with inventing the ranch house, a single-story home that mixes elements of the Spanish hacienda and the western ranch with modernist floor-to-ceiling glass.

“It’s pretty ideal in terms of indoor-outdoor living, which is nice for California,” said Ms. Lin, a 40-year-old mother of two who designs children’s clothing for her own label, Youth Independent Party.

The family’s 1,421-square-foot “Californian” is part of Mr. May’s Lakewood Rancho Estates development of about 700 tract homes, built 1953-54. Many of the home’s hallmark features were intact, from its Douglas fir post-and-beams and redwood siding, to the translucent mistlite glass panels used throughout as room dividers.

“A lot of those homes underwent some pretty bad additions with second stories being put on,” said Nate Cole, a real-estate broker whose Unique California Property firm specializes in homes by modernist architects.

He recently sold a sleekly renovated Californian in Rancho Estates for $920,000. “One block away,” outside the May development, “a similar sized house would be probably $675,000 to $725,000,” he said.

Consulting old magazines, sales brochures and photographs, Mr. Leaver, a 44-year-old graphic designer, had doors and windows fabricated to match the originals, stripped decades of paint from the birch woodwork, and replaced the shingle roof with a period-correct rock roof.

In one concession to the 21st century, the couple opened up the narrow galley kitchen, removing a pony wall that divided it from the living room and replacing it with a large island. “Women are not behind the kitchen wall anymore,” Ms. Lin said.

But living with all that glass, transparency and openness means that the couple is engaged in a constant battle with clutter. As Christmas approached, Ms. Lin told her daughter to expect just one gift from Santa.

“It was a watch,” she said.
