Clean-living outdoor adventurer hunk Ben Fogle claims he was the victim of a drink-spiking attack, with something akin to an unscheduled LSD trip triggering a psychotic fit and making him try to jump out of his home’s windows.
Fogle told of his awful episode on Twitter, before expanding on his bizarre drugs nightmare to the Daily Mail. He told the paper: “I just flipped and had a full on psychotic episode. I was ranting, marching up and down, hitting walls, trying to jump out of windows. My wife ran out and had to get my friends who had to restrain me.”
Highlighting the facts that drugs really aren’t particularly amusing in any way at all, Fogle said: “They had to lock the doors and restrain me from hurting myself. I wanted to throw myself on a glass table and through a window,” before it turned even weirder when he started “trying to get into bags.”
The hospital that treated Fogle didn’t run any toxicology tests, so he can’t be 100 per cent sure if it was a spiked drink. He has appealed to the supposed drug-lacer, saying: “I would forgive you. I just want to know what you put into my drink and into my body.” [ITV]

Happened to me when I was younger, not a pleasant experience at all. Nowadays when I make a dick of myself it’s purely the alcohol that’s to blame.
As unfortunate as it its it did make me chuckle!
“Highlighting the facts that drugs really aren’t particularly amusing in any way at all”
Sure, because every drug is the same as this.
Lol he just wasn’t doing it right. O_o
For me this just highlights how great and funny drugs are.
Although the word label drug is pretty arbitrary.
That old chestnut… sorry I was a tool, I think I must have had my drink spiked!
Not heard that before
I never understood the ‘jumping from a great height’ thing. Bill Hicks summed it up:
“Young man on acid, thought he could fly, jumped out of a building. What a tragedy.’ What a dick! Fuck him, he’s an idiot. If he thought he could fly, why didn’t he take off on the ground first?”
Gotta love Bill Hicks.
Wish that had happened on Castaway.
The hospital that treated Fogle didn’t run any toxicology tests, so he can’t be 100 per cent sure if it was a spiked drink. – Seems a tad convenient.
and
Highlighting the facts that drugs really aren’t particularly amusing in any way at all” – this comes across as so closed minded, I understand that he probably be simply protecting his public image, but it sparks that initial judgment none the less.
Having reviewed the evidence and considered the circumstances, I have concluded that in this case he was, in fact, monged out his napper on snort.
havnt actually looked into it other than this page, but deffo sounds like a nice easy way to get away with it. its all a bit steriotypical.
What a pussy.
getting spiked is the worst…. me n my mate danny had a 4sum lined up with 2 slags until 1 of them got spiked and she passed out after vomming everywhere….. fml……
This whole spiking incident has not been proven, he was not drug tested, it could have just been a psychotic episode.
Am I hearing this right, someone stopped Ben Fogle from jumping out of a window? The inhumanity, the depravity. You people make me sick – let it play, let this man journey home – a small price to pay for television without another aimless fucking prick.
He’s from Liverpool isn’t he
I don’t see how this is relevant or has any bearing, if it happens to be true or false. Unless you use it as a method to call upon others bigotry, lies and slurs.
Get off your high horse and don’t be so defensive.
It was clearly a light hearted remark aimed at you and not people of Liverpool. You have been ranting on the site in the defence of Liverpool and I was faux labelling a man who you called a prick a Liverpudlian.
Peace Brother.
I didn’t realise the comment was talking about Fogle, but thought it aimed at myself, hence the unwarranted high horse. My apologies.
I’m feeling the love Brother.
My apologies as well.
