A member of the public in Chapel St Leonards, Lincolnshire, called emergency services to report people lying on the floor
It turns out that lying on the floor is actually quite comfortable and should not be reserved for dead people.
We need to leave ourselves something to look forward to in our final moments.
Imagine the poor bastard who has to die standing up? He can’t even chill out after death.
Watching too much US news there.
UK Karens activated?
I don’t think we should get in the habit of calling it “Karen” to report a mass killing
Persom didnt call to report “mass shooting”
This person made a false report.
Wasting resources… In US, police is known to kill people who they were supposed to be “saving” because they got “scared”
This was at best negligence and should not be glorified
They didn’t make a false report on purpose. And their police mostly don’t kill people.
Last time I checked the stats the per capita (%) US rate of gun deaths from police shootings alone was higher than the entire gun homicide rate for Europe.
Making a false report is only a bad thing if they did it maliciously. I’m assuming they did it out of naivety rather than out of malice. In the UK the police are less inclined to kill people for no reason (of course, it does happen but it’s way less likely).
Ha ha, well it’s called corpse pose so really, good job yogi’s.
What are the chances the person who called the police was over the age of 60?
To be fair, it is called corpse pose. I guess the yogis were just too convincing for that poor person who saw them.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
A yoga class was cut short after a member of the public called the police to report a “mass killing” after seeing several people lying on the floor.
Participants in the class, which was being held at the Seascape cafe, inside the North Sea observatory in Chapel St Leonards, Skegness, Lincolnshire, were in the midst of meditation when officers turned up on Wednesday night.
In a Facebook post, the cafe said someone had “reported a mass killing” after seeing people on the floor inside the building.
“They were on their way to the observatory after someone had reported a mass killing in our building, having seen several people laying on the floor … which actually turned out to be the yoga class in meditation.
A Facebook post on the cafe’s page says the venue holds New Moon yoga classes on Wednesdays from 7.30-9pm where you can feel “called to dive deep into the lunar cycle”.
A spokesperson said in a statement to PA: “A call was made following concerns for the occupants of the North Sea observatory, at Chapel St Leonards.
The original article contains 322 words, the summary contains 181 words. Saved 44%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Since it happened in the US, they all can be grateful that the police didn’t turn it into a mass killing when they couldn’t find a murderer there.
I guess, if it had been a black yoga class, they would have preemptively started shooting the participants.
it happened in the US
No, it happened in Lincolnshire, UK.
Didn’t even read the article before dissing the US. Shot happens other places, you know?
Shot happens
I mean I don’t want to go so far as to make light out of shootings but I feel like this typo can’t go unremarked upon
Duck of muddy flicker 😅
Americabad
Yeah but it is tho.
I mean just because the guy didn’t read the article, America still does all that shit regardless.
Sure. Emphasis of specific truths is more important to propaganda than lies.
This did not happen in the US. If it did, it’d just be like your average Tuesday and you’d never hear about it.
When I saw this story, it struck me as funny, but then there’s that line about how the police officers must have been feeling as they approached what could have been a horror scene. I can’t even imagine.
Yeah. Even the person who thought they “found” the bodies, rushing off to call the police, everyone must have been pretty freaked out.
Total contrast to the chilled out yoga people.
To be fair, that’s a perfectly reasonable assumption to make in the land of folk horror.
