BBC reporter Quentin Sommerville hardly managed to wrap up his broadcast as he got high after getting too close to a pile of burning drugs.

Sommerville, the company's Middle East correspondent, posted a link to the video on his YouTube page Monday (December 22) as a 'Christmas present' to his followers on Twitter.

The video he called “Don't inhale,” depicts Sommerville standing near a large stack of heroin, opium and hashish, but as he attempts to begin his report he can't help but laugh.

“Burning behind me is eight and a half tonnes of heroin, opium, hashish and other narcotics,” the reporter starts his broadcast by saying.

As soon as he tries to start his next line, Sommerville lets out a tiny giggle, setting the cameraman off and both burst out laughing.

And the longer they stand there the harder it becomes as both men burst into fits of laughter.
