I always wonder....Who was the first person who ever thought to themselves, “Hey, I think I will shoot this into my arm?”

Someone who stopped getting high from smoking it.

I'd imagine it was this guy. He was looking for a non-addictive alternative to morphine - and ended up creating something at least as addictive and also more powerful.

Likely very quickly after first hypo needle

Pretty sure morohine came first

I’m gonna look

Morphine 1804
Hypodermic needle 1853

And naturally its first use was to shoot dope for pain...I’m shocked..lol
