What he did was an alpha move biologically. There wasn't anything passive about it. Put it that way

Yeah. There has been an update. And it still points to that imo Update https://talk.thethaiger.com/topic/25407-news-forum-indian-man-drowns-in-pattaya-pool-as-witnesses-mistake-struggle-for-play/ Initially, the woman and other onlookers believed that Kumar was joking around, as he had been diving and playing for some time. However, when he failed to resurface after about a minute, witnesses raised the alarm and called for security assistance.

This is what is happening with most of these tourists on motorcycles in curves. They just don't get it. This guy cant even begin to get the bike to turn. He just rides it almost straight into the rail. This guy almost does the same thing. Speed is not relevant to these accidents. He is fighting the lean and can't get the bike to turn.

More to this perhaps ? Usually in a drowning, the person panics and flails away until they go under. They don't sink like a rock without any struggle

And another...... American Man, 67, Dies After 'Big Motorbike' Crash in Phang ... Feb 1, 2023 — Police and emergency responders arrived at a curve on the northbound lane in the Tak Dad sub-district. A brand new but now damaged big bike ...

You must not have finished the video. It clearly shows him steering the wrong way in slow motion, then double slow motion. I posted 3 news clippings showing motorcycles crashing by themselves in curves. Not in intersections, not in corners. Curves. So you think all 3 of these riders, most likely had a good grasp of the concept of counter steering ?

5 of the Most Dangerous, Accident-Prone Roads in Bangkok 1. The Curve in Front of Ratchada Shrine According to recent information from the Accident Research Center in Thailand (June 10, 2022), Bangkok’s most dangerous, accident-prone road is the curve in front of the famous Ratchada Shrine, AKA “The Curve of 100 Bodies”.

3 different news clippings. I see a pattern... 1)Swede dies in motorbike crash just 5 days after meeting Thai girlfriend A 50-year-old Swedish national died immediately after his motorcycle overshot a curve in Roi Et’s Suwannaphum district on Saturday, just five days after he met his Thai girlfriend. 2)Motorbike crash kills Phuket man | Thaiger Mar 2, 2023 — This tragedy comes after another motorbike crash in Thailand killed a ... He had reportedly crashed his motorbike while navigating a curve. 3) https://www.thephuketnews.com/woman-...road-87553.php Mar 22, 2023 — Officers believe the motorbike was travelling at high speed when the driver lost control on the curve

I am from Vancouver. In 2008, a Vancouver Canucks hockey player was killed when his motorcycle somehow crossed the centerline and head on into a semi truck. He had his motorcycle licence for 2 weeks. Hmmm I wonder what happened... I have no idea... https://toronto.citynews.ca/2008/05/29/young-canuck-defenceman-killed-in-motorcycle-crash/

Of course it is intuitive. Nobody said it wasn't. If you think it is just a fluke that these accidents happen in curves, you'd be "completely" wrong. If you think riders wouldn't steer the wrong way into things you'd be "completely" wrong too. And since you dug your heels in already, you will just say this guy was going too fast.

At 5-15 km/h, no counter steering or leaning is involved. You steer like you are driving a car. Or a lawn mower or anything. Whether he dies or spends 6 months and 80 grand at a hospital is besides the point. And opens a go fund me (like the last farang who couldn't steer through a curve) The main cause of the accident was not speed.

The wobble is caused by fighting the lean by steering the wrong way They fenagle their way through most of the time. As they gain confidence they probably start taking the curves a bit faster and thats when it happens. That is why there's always accidents on longish rides too. Someone gains a bit of confidence putting their way around the city. And then they think they are finally skilled enough to ride from town A to town B. Through a bunch of speed curves.

You have to understand the concept of counter steering at speeds in excess of 15-20 km/h. Especially on a bike like that. So yes. He could have probably died going40 or 50 km/h. The point is, the speed was not the primary cause.

These accidents involving tourists almost always happen in curves. Why ? Because ppl don't actually know how to ride. They think they do but don't. They dont know how to counter steer. They literally steer the wrong way and the bike goes the opposite direction that they want to.

It wasn't about the speed. Once again, another rider didnt know how to counter steer.

I have always thought about that too. But how do we really know if it is any different for local SE Asian men? It has to be more favorable to them. But we don't know. Canada is insane indeed. I have pretty successful friends who are approaching 40 and still grinding it out in the dating scene

I am not condoning what he did. But some women think cheating is just a laughing matter. Well guess what.. it isn't. Nor should it be. I know guys like this and they have explained to their women what would happen if they did stuff like this. Unfortunately I doubt they had this conversation. Maybe he thought it was self evident. And it probably was. She f'd around and found out.

I don't believe that they do, no. The TCAS system does not function on the ground.

Ok. Lets hear all the ridicule. And lets pretend that this doesn't happen a couple times a year somewhere in the world.

He took the masculine route. Say what you want about him, he was no passive beta.

All the experts will demand more and more legislation. We must have more legislation. Then nobody will ever fall sleep again

There is probably some context missing to the story.

It does kind of feel like there is something missing with the story. Maybe the guy was buying drugs or something

More like a lazy shameless weirdo and ungracious guest that should be deported. My backpack days were from 2005 to 2013 and this was totally unheard of

Same position as that farang sleaze bag a few months ago
