When used the active chemical in the plant, thc, works in the brain causing the user to feel "high." This can be described and experienced in many different ways depending how it agrees or disagrees with the user. Most commonly effects are a feeling of a calm easy escape from the everyday stress on the mind, laughing, "munchies", as well as many other feelings. image:39028:13::0

To be exact, 104 pounds of marijuana were discovered and police estimated the value at $4.7 million.

In case you were keeping track, that amounts to over $2,820 per ounce!

This amount more than quintuples High Times estimate for high-end marijuana in Ohio which is a mere $400.

It also blows the STRIDE estimate of a measley $200 in 2003 completely out of the water.

Not only did the officers bust a trafficker of high-end marijuana, but they also managed to discover the worlds most valuable marijuana. They truly do deserve a medal for this amazing feat.

It has not yet been reported that anyone has actually smoked this new breed of super premium cannabis, but maybe thats because the police have already managed to confiscate it all.

This new marijuana just barely beats the previous record held in Philadelphia where cops discovered marijuana that was worth over $100 per joint.

The local news agency rounded the value up to $5 million in their story, but the Chicago Tribune has decided to run the story without the cops estimated value of the confiscated drugs. Maybe they were a little suspicious of the record breaking claim?

The alleged trafficker in being held on a bail of $2 million.
