===Superhuman strength===
Some reports cite a widely held belief that PCP can give its users "superhuman" strength for the duration of its effects,<ref>{{cite news| url=http://articles.latimes.com/1991-06-17/news/mn-625_1_drug-abuse | work=Los Angeles Times | first=Claire | last=Spiegel | title=COLUMN ONE : Effects of PCP: Myth Vs. Reality : Stories abound about the drug imbuing people with superhuman strength. But some researchers say those claims are overrated. Much about the drug remains a mystery | date=1991-06-17}}</ref> and there are several anecdotes alleging this phenomenon. However, the itdrug does ''not'' typically make the user significantly stronger in reality than they otherwise would be. The exception is when a user experiences [[excited delirium]], a severe and life-threatening reaction that occasionally results from use of PCP as well as various stimulants such as [[cocaine]] and [[amphetamines]]. Excited delirium has also been reported to occur without any drug use, and the increased strength that results is most likely caused by a massive increase in [[adrenaline]].<ref name="ACEP white paper">[http://ccpicd.com/Documents/Excited%20Delirium%20Task%20Force.pdf "White Paper Report on Excited Delirium Syndrome"] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101011073329/http://ccpicd.com/Documents/Excited%20Delirium%20Task%20Force.pdf |date=2010-10-11 }}, ACEP Excited Delirium Task Force, [[American College of Emergency Physicians]], September 10, 2009</ref>
