Prince Harry accused of being high on 'hippy crack'

London, Sep 21 (ANI): Prince Harry is facing allegations that he was high on dangerous "hippy crack" or laughing gas at a recent party.

It is believed that the royal, 26, inhaled balloons of potentially fatal nitrous oxide - also known as laughing gas - at a party.

In fact, the Prince did not leave the do until 5am, and went to continue the fun back at St James's Palace with two women.

"Harry was the life and soul of the party. Every girl wanted to get his attention but they had to compete with the laughing gas - Harry loved it," the Daily Star quoted a fellow raver as saying.

"He didn't seem bothered what people's reaction might be to him using drugs. At 5am he sneaked off with the girls, saying they were heading back to his," added the source.

Dr Paul Skett, from Glasgow University, condemned the prince's "stupidity".

"It is a very silly thing to do. It replaces oxygen in the system, which can lead to brain damage and even death," he said. (ANI)
