Four climbers had to call mountain rescue after getting so stoned they couldn't get back down.
The group managed to successfully climb to the top of Scarfell Pike in the Lake District, which stands at an impressive 3,209ft.
However, it appears that they celebrated their successful ascent with a few spliffs and found themselves too 'incapacitated' to get back down so called the police to ask for help.

I mean, I'm assuming they climbed up and then started smoked, I can't imagine they would have managed to climb the highest peak in England while stoned, but what do I know?
Cumbria Police force tweeted about the bizarre incident, which happened yesterday at around 6.30pm, and confirmed that mountain rescue and air ambulances had been dispatched to the scene.
The group were eventually brought safely back down at 9.45pm.
People were quick to blast the climbers on social media, saying they should be 'fined', 'named and shamed' or 'billed' for the cost of the ambulances.
Others thought the whole thing was a bit of a joke, with one person replying: "Just send a Toffee Crisp' with another adding: "And Monster Munch." While someone else asked: "How high are they?"

"The mountain rescue team had a particularly busy day yesterday dealing with this incident.
"They are volunteers, they do an amazing job and are always there to assist those who get into difficulty.
"Taking alcohol or any other substance that could impair your judgement significantly increases your risk of getting into trouble. It has no place on a mountain."
