ZimZam Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Missouri boys wanna get high. Guess the meth lab got shut down. Half-naked climber -- possibly high on mushrooms -- rescued from First Flatiron in Boulder A climber who was half-naked -- and possibly high on mushrooms -- was rescued from the First Flatiron on Friday afternoon, according to the Boulder County Sheriff's Office. At 12:35 p.m., officials received a call from a climber saying his friend was "not acting right" and required assistance as the two were climbing the First Flatiron. Both men were 25 and visiting from Missouri, according to a news release. Emergency crews were able to retrieve the climber, who was treated and released from Boulder Community Hospital. Deputies found psilocybin mushrooms -- a hallucinogenic -- on the climber who called the rescue in and arrested him on suspicion of felony possession of a controlled substance. Investigators say the rescued climber may have been under the influence of the mushrooms and could face drug charges. Also, deputies say they think a civilian may have been bitten by one of the climbers during the rescue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvashtarkatena Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) Pick you partners carefully. If my partners called in a rescue every time I was "not acting right", I'd never get up anything.

sobo Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 I think it's a bummer that the dude who called in the rescue got busted. WTF is up with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) Yeah, why would he even let deputies search him in the first place. And why would they even ask? edit: well, besides the obvious reason they would ask, I guess. Edited November 16, 2011 by rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlpineK Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 The rescue team may have decided the guy reporting the problem wasn't acting quite right despite the ability to report problems via cell phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been on plenty of rescues where the RP "wasn't acting quite right" and we never asked them if they were on drugs. I mean, c'mon, they're the subject of a rescue. Of course they don't feel "quite right." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-spotter Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Also, deputies say they think a civilian may have been bitten by one of the climbers during the rescue. Sounds a little uncertain.

max Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) Does anyone else find it interesting that having a mushroom in your pocket is a felony? Jesus fucking krist this country needs to get a life.... When it leads to the endangerment (and mastication) of others, I'd say there should be punishment. Oops! Edit. Are you reefering (ha!) to the "felony" part, or that it's illegal in general? Edited November 16, 2011 by max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvashtarkatena Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 I believe biting is already illegal. Don't think the 'endangerment' part was considered illegal. Prohibition not required. Next time you get drunk in your own dining room, I'd be in favor of having your ass hauled off by the authorities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
