I can’t recall the source, but I remember reading an eye-witness story about a yogi (at least I think it was a yogi) who swallowed a whole bunch of mind-altering pills that would have normally been fatal — or at least caused a severe reaction — and they apparently had no effect on him whatsoever. He did it intentionally too, probably as a demonstration that he was in control of the effect of whatever he ingested.

I think Ram Dass was the eye-witness and Neem Karoli Baba was the yogi.
A couple of months ago, I listened to a lecture collection by Ram Dass and
he related that story (if I'm not mistaken).
Here is an interview with Ram Dass:
Interview with Ram Dass
In it he talks about Neem Karoli Baba taking drugs...
