Ever wonder how Eastern European authorities destroy large amounts of seized narcotics? Me neither.
Just in case you’re still interested, here’s a quick photoset from Macedonia involving tons of drugs, a steel mill and temperatures hot enough to melt the Terminator 1000.
So what exactly was destroyed? Only 150 kilos of hashish, 250 kilos of marijuana, 80 kilos of heroin, 30,000 ecstasy pills and 16 kilos of cocaine worth a street value of almost 4 million Euro.

According to the police, that’s an estimated $8 million in possible sales. To top it off, signs have shown that someone was “periodically” cultivating these plants. I don’t know who was able to find a field of herbature that massive and keep it to themselves, but that is one damn trustworthy individual.
