Remember in Year 10 PDHPE how you were forced to sit through a slew of outdated documentaries on ‘harm reduction’ practices? The often condescending takes on literally all walks of life were never quite gripping, however, they did sometimes offer some sage advice that’d help in later years.
A group of dedicated stoners clearly did not listen during this portion of the subject, with police having to come to their rescue on England’s highest mountain after reportedly being
‘unable to walk due to cannabis’

The troubled pot-heads were found at Scafell Pike in the Lake District on Saturday evening, with the task requiring air rescue to deliver them to the safety of lower altitudes almost 3 hours after their call for help.

“Taking alcohol or any other substance that could impair your judgment significantly increases your risk of getting into trouble. It has no place on a mountain.” said Justin Bibby from Cumbria police. Keep it in mind, kids.
