French fuzz send young spliff-rollers' world record ambitions up in smoke

French police said on Tuesday they had thwarted an attempt by a group of marijuana smokers to roll the world's longest joint by seizing a work-in-progress measuring 80cm in length.

"At some point, these young people had wanted to craft a joint of 1.12m to beat the world record in the discipline and get it officially registered," said a police officer in eastern France.

"We don't know who had the idea. Sometimes ideas are created in an astonishing way," he said.

During an investigation targeting a group of four smokers in the eastern Vosges area of France, police discovered the giant joint containing 70g of marijuana resin.

It had not been finished because of a lack of tobacco.

One of the smokers of adult age is to appear before a court charged with drug use on Oct. 19.
