Not saying that this is what people have experience here, or done, but I have heard of Ambien used exactly for this purpose as a "street drug". And in fairly high quantities, like 30mg.
I wouldn't do it for that, especially since there's alcohol involved, etc.
But I wouldn't be surprised for someone relatively benzodiazepine "naive" (not taken much by way of benzodiazepines) would not have cross-tolerance and would be able to have this curious phenomenon with pseudo-benzodiazepines such as Ambien.
For myself, it basically doesn't register or is even noticeable.
