    Presumably you aren’t talking about safety matches … what is a ‘red head’ in this context???

      People with red hair have significantly higher tolerance to pain killers and anaesthetic, and typically need more to achieve the same effect as other people

      Yes! What @[email protected] said. My Boyo is only visibly red in the beard, but most painkillers and anaesthetics don’t work in expected ways. To the extent of waking up on the operating table.

        You don’t have to be a red head - my mum had weird reactions to valium - it energised her into complete hyperactivity.
