Local media in California are reporting a high school student who died in a 30-metre fall at a popular tourist attraction near Vancouver was on drugs that likely impaired his judgment.
A B.C. coroner's report found that 17-year-old Daniel Cho was high on LSD when he climbed a 1.2-metre fence at the Capilano Suspension Bridge, plunging from a viewing platform into the canyon below.

Mark Coleman with the Vancouver Metro Regional Coroners Office says in the report, released Friday, there was no evidence Cho intended to harm himself.

According to the report, the San Mateo, Calif. teen suffered numerous blunt force injuries, including severe brain trauma, from the plunge in June.
At the time of his death, police said nobody saw Cho climb the railing or fall, and that the teen was seen climbing similar barriers earlier in the day and warned to stop.

Coleman's report says Cho and two other students took the mind-altering drugs during a bus ride before the group stopped at the bridge.
Cho was among about 100 students from Aragon High School visiting B.C. for a music exchange trip. The death was ruled an accident.

 

Definitely sad, but an example of why so Many iterate to treat powerful psychedelics with respect.

 

psychedelics are so much more than just a drug and should be treated as such. I hate when kids get all stupid on psychedelics and treat them as just another way to get fucked up.

 

17 year old takes acid to get fucked up. sounds about right

 

Thats really sad, poor kid, poor family, shitty situation all around.

 

One time there was this Korean kid that shot up a college campus with a 9mm handgun.. They tried to say he was on drugs.. He was not.. nor did he use drugs in the past.. Some people are just fucked up!! And nobody lives forever anyways..

 

^Agreed

 

one kid on mushrooms got shot because he broke into someones house thinking he snuck back into his own, he thought the dude shooting him was his dad, forgot what site i saw that shit on

 

this kid was probably a first timer.
according to some other kids at the high school who graduated the same year, he was not the type of kid to be taking acid or any drug for that matter. Sucks for the family and his two idiot friends that dosed him.

 

Don't frown, that comment was funny as hell :mickey:

 

Imagine if he was drunk and had fallen as well, and alcohol is truly impairing.

I'm surprised this article didn't go ranting off about the "dangers" of LSD, and just reported it as matter of fact. Still, you can just see the media lapping this story up. What a full-out tragedy.

Also, mindset and setting. Rest in peace.

 

years ago there was a kid kicking an electrical transformer on the pole,, He climbed up there and got zapped, blew his thigh apart.... Now the rumor was that he was "high on LSD".. What was he tripping on? you know the saying "YOU TRIPPING" didnt originate from the psychedelic scene it originated with Martin Lawrence...
the kid was not on any drugs at all.. He just did it to get ATTENTION!..

 

When i tried LSD i just wanted to lie down and watch my ceiling breathe
