He must have been very arrogant to see drug users at close hand, but think that he would be able to use the same drugs yet not suffer the same consequences as everyone else.
He was 63 tho, so if i had to guess it could have been a combination of old age and the effects of long-term heroin abuse. The article said that he died peacefully so I don't believe it was an overdose or anything. Still, RIP to such a gentle and talented being.
It says he died of an illness not related to drug use. He'd been clean for 11 years and was working on the 3rd instalment in this project with the cameraman/person you can hear and see in the cold turkey documentary.
jesus christ watching this has given me a massive appreciation for the fact that im not addicted to any substances . this poor man and his SON are hooked . very sad .
I feel his story is extremely sad, especially as the story ends on a happy note when he convinces himself that getting a publisher resolves his problems, that his reduction of his methadone saves him from the temptation of consuming drugs, and that he had come out on top of it. I hope he was able to live his life well on his own terms, and that he rests peacefully.
@@temureviewer33 There's a new film about his life called My Fried Lanhre which has been played at a load of film festivals in 2023, hoping it will be made available to stream online at some pont.
For anyone who’s looking for an update, his long time filmography friend, Leo Regan, has made a 2023 film about him, titled ‘Lanre: My Friend’. RIP, brother…. You’ve done your job in this life.
I'm currently on 'another' subby (Subutex) script, and listening to Lanre from 34:30 - 34:42 just cracked me up. It was like listening to myself, and every other junkie I've ever met... "I'm not bullshitting yer. I wouldn't tell yer no lies..." Yeah, right, Lanre. But that's all we ever do, we tell lies, to ourselves and others, until the day we quit, quit for good...
That is an oversimplification and according to recovery stats just not possible to ask of everyone addicted. You can't force change on someone but you can help people in need. Telling them that abstinence is the only way out of disaster is Prohibitionists bullshit from the last two centuries. It's all a matter of access. Why do you think diamorphine programms work better than any substitute ever will?
@@yoho7992 abstinence is the only solution lol, what kind of bullshit are you on about. I suggest tou check ou the UA-cam channel; CGkid and his Shameless Protocol organization. Maybe that will make you understand addiction and solutions to it more.
You know how to tell when an active addict is lying? Whenever their mouth opens. I’m a recovering addict and it’s impossible to be honest especially when the person you bullshit the most is yourself.
@@crichey56 hang in there man, I’ve been off heroin for three years now and life is so much better. Whatever helps you stay clean and allows you to live a healthy happy life keep doing.
There are some things you just don't need to experience firsthand. Heroin is one of them. Is understanding the plight of junkies REALLY worth your hurting your health, family and career?
Are u kidding me??? He just lied to his son about not using anymore, and bam in the next scene there he is cooking up :/. And he is in so much denial he doesn't even realise it
Its quite obvious through his decade long Cold Turkey fail :( Lanre let us in on the bare reality of how innocently horrendous lies are born! Changing in seconds!
An example of participatory journalism turning into scrambled eggs. Just as one shouldn't pick up a weapon and start assassinating prisoners while doing a write up on Death Squads, the same should have been thought out with this absurdist situation. A drug with such powerful destructive properties has completely consumed, swallowed and changed him wholly. It's as if someone walked into traffic to cross the street without looking, taken a hit by a car screeching at high speeds and still attempts to crawl to the other side without recognizing the missing limbs.
He leaned towards the "edges of society" even before this - ran away from home as a child, in his project on homelessness he went broke and got evicted...

This is my jam. I got shivers and started to tear up when I began to see the guy cooking the spoon. I'm in recovery myself, and this is an excellent tale of the pure seduction that is specifically intravenous heroin use.
Good to see the whole story about this poor guy, i watched the Cold Turkey version which uses some of the same footage.......very interesting as i have my own demons.

There are a lot of things in this documentary that I disagree with. As someone who was is Lanre's sons shoes, I definitely felt this raw program on a personal level. That being said, I definitely shared his joy at the end.
This reminds me of "American Movie" with Mark Borchardt. ..in the sense that AM is about trying to get a movie made but they never end up finishing it, or really even making it. but we see videos of them trying to get help getting it published (and video of their everyday life), and that's more fun to watch than the actual movie.

Lanre is like the Bob Arctor of the gear world! His profession leads him to addiction of the drug he was documenting. Well, better Heroin than Crystal Meth. :)
I once had a friend that was on probation and was given restrictions - no drugs or alcohol. But he liked to smoke weed. Once in a while they'd surprise piss test him. On one of these occasions he got his sister to supply the urine. A couple days later his P.O. called him and said he had good news and bad news. The good news was that he passed his piss test; the bad news was that he was pregnant. BUSTED!
Heard that one a few times mate,. with different scenarios. I sort of believe it's an urban myth... I'd be interested to know if you know this person.... or if he's a mate of a mate...by the same token..some people must be caught out like this where urine tests are involved......I always thought of costs...you just test for what you're paid to test don't you ?..
Petre .W. I'm just retelling what I was told. "...you just test for what you're paid to test don't you?" Unless they suspected what he was doing and wanted to catch him. Personally, I doubt they really tested his urine for pregnancy. I think they just told him they did to bluff him and to watch his reaction, or get him to admit he was substituting someone else's urine. Again, I'm giving this second hand, so I don't know.
Rob Robert Yeah ! That's what I thought ! I'd heard the same ! Now that I've cleaned up I'm more likely to believe the the second scenario as more likely and it being a bluff !...
Rob Robert I take pee test every week... Trust me they don't test for pregnancy.. Testing for alcohol is expensive in itself due to having to test liver insims..especially for male urine there's no point in spending money on pregnancy test
Rob Robert meth, cocaine, benzos, MDMA, alcohol (randomly tested for alcohol), heroin, opiates, oxy, methadone, THC, angel dust and I believe GHB but they never catch GHB due to the tiny amount of liquid you swallow... Comes out in the next piss... Anyway this is a large panel for hardcore drug addicts... Expensive to test
If anyone who reads this has a copy of his book please contact me. I can't find it anywhere online. I'm interested in purchasing it or paying to have a copy made.
How does he look? Someone commented that they got a response from his personal email claiming he is clean. Does he look clean? Tensed? Lol. Lanre had a way of keeping his composure unless withdrawing. Who knows! Can you catch a word with him, Mr Legs? Just wanna send good wishes! How many times did you see him?
Geo Maria George I haven't seen him for about 6 month s. ..providing it is him. ..it will keep a look out. .he looked ok. .but was talking to a couple of gear heads
watching stuff like this just makes me angry. prohibition has never worked these drugs should obviously be regulated and decriminalised .. it is a no brainer surely?? until that happens many thousands of mainly young people will continue to needlessly die a slow undignified death.. and the massive cost to society will continue to rise
And how is regulation going to change anything? Just look how big the criminal circuit is in The Netherlands for weed and hash alone while its legal. When the price is 50% lower on the streets, regulation won't change anything.
Regulation doesn't stop addiction. If you look at the US a number of people are addicted to prescription painkillers (Matthew Perry from Friends being one of the most high profile cases previously). There's also been an opioid crisis where big pharma turned drug dealer and decided to put profit ahead of clinical efficacy. This was in spite of the US having a regulated drug market.
Certain jesters I see from him makes me think he is a true drug attic and that all is truly worrying with. I true sells man. This is why never trust a drug or attic!
I find it Ironic that his ex partner gives it all that about him being a waster, yet gets fucked up on alcohol in a pub.. but hey alcohol withdrawal only kills you, alcohol only counts for 30K deaths a year which shadows heroin deaths... not counting nhs costs, obesity issues it causes which is our biggest cost to the nhs aka the tax payer...
So sad, He seems to be a really genuine nice guy. I heard he passed away last year or so, not drug related. I always wanted him to do some cocaine, not to get high but to see the little animals that came out of his hands and arms he claimed happened when doing that drug, but nobody believed him. Those creatures could of been a cure for cancer or something.
What do you mean "not drug related", he died from cancer. Heroin massively increases the risk of developing numerous cancers, and if he was on the crack as well or into chasing the dragon then obviously that causes lung cancer.
@@ryank3321 My Mother died of cancer and she never did any drugs Including tobacco or drink. So what killed her. I have a mate who is 55 years old, a chronic herion user and he is out living my mother's age. Go do some research next time.

watching stuff like this just makes me angry. prohibition has never worked these drugs should obviously be regulated and decriminalised .. it is a no brainer surely?? until that happens many thousands of mainly young people will continue to needlessly die a slow undignified death.. and the massive cost to society will continue to rise
bill sinewdon and that is the point. They authorities are not your friend.
And how is regulation going to change anything? Just look how big the criminal circuit is in The Netherlands for weed and hash alone while its legal. When the price is 50% lower on the streets, regulation won't change anything.
Regulation doesn't stop addiction. If you look at the US a number of people are addicted to prescription painkillers (Matthew Perry from Friends being one of the most high profile cases previously). There's also been an opioid crisis where big pharma turned drug dealer and decided to put profit ahead of clinical efficacy. This was in spite of the US having a regulated drug market.
R.i.p.
Did he pass away?
@A. M. yeah I saw his death on Google on the funeral page he died February 2021 at 63 years old
Jiunki fakcsen LSD, 🥶🥶🥶🥶
He's on a tiny amount of methadone. Like ludicrously. Not a big habit.
Certain jesters I see from him makes me think he is a true drug attic and that all is truly worrying with. I true sells man. This is why never trust a drug or attic!
I find it Ironic that his ex partner gives it all that about him being a waster, yet gets fucked up on alcohol in a pub.. but hey alcohol withdrawal only kills you, alcohol only counts for 30K deaths a year which shadows heroin deaths... not counting nhs costs, obesity issues it causes which is our biggest cost to the nhs aka the tax payer...
Newsflash not everyone who drinks alcohol is a degenerate. Unlike these junkie scum.
Foolish man
7PFRIGx69bw here is the follow video....poor guy is STILL addicted but still alive
swear to god i cant understand half of what these british are saying
get educated then and learn English
you are dumb then
That's y there are subs
His ex partner has an extremely northern accent, most of England wouldnt understand what she's saying lol
I'm English and I could barely understand what they were saying
So sad, He seems to be a really genuine nice guy. I heard he passed away last year or so, not drug related. I always wanted him to do some cocaine, not to get high but to see the little animals that came out of his hands and arms he claimed happened when doing that drug, but nobody believed him.
Those creatures could of been a cure for cancer or something.
What do you mean "not drug related", he died from cancer. Heroin massively increases the risk of developing numerous cancers, and if he was on the crack as well or into chasing the dragon then obviously that causes lung cancer.
@@ryank3321 My Mother died of cancer and she never did any drugs
Including tobacco or drink. So what killed her. I have a mate who is 55 years old, a chronic herion user and he is out living my mother's age.
Go do some research next time.
Couple excuses... Normal addict.
