Great, only trashy farang tourists left in Thailand.

CAVE 🐻

Sure it could have happened that way. We don't know what happened before the video.

Best solution: No farangs in Thailand. No farangs to say ni hao and no farangs to call farang. Peace achieved.

Nah, probably just a misunderstanding. No need to be sensitive about it.

I had plantar fasciitis pain so bad I bought a brace thinking it would help. Ice worked better than the brace or any painkillers.

Maybe the farang "ni hao"ed the Thai. A tit for tat, so to speak. The titties are big indeed.

I thought that he was a Brit at first. But he says "Australia" three times. So bogan is more appropriate. Also, he says "Come on, then" multiples times. That's a commonly used phrase in Australia.

Watching The Pitt now. As I get older, medical dramas become more interesting.

Well, any rich foreigner. The Thais want to keep milking this Swiss cow.

You can get tested to check if you ever had chickenpox. Before my chickenpox vax, the doctor tested to confirm that I never had chickenpox. Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV) Antibody Test (IgG) This test detects IgG antibodies, which indicate past infection or vaccination. A positive result means the person is immune (either from having had chickenpox or from the vaccine). A negative result suggests no prior infection or vaccination, meaning the person is susceptible to chickenpox.

Oh, look. A farang kicking someone when he is down on the ground. Isn't that cowardly?

During covid every Asian abroad was Chinese. Even before covid, in Morocco everyone was Ni Haoing every Asian in my tour group even when they are not Chinese. It would be annoying for farang if every Thai person greeted them in Russian in a mocking way. That may yet happen in Phuket. I'm not surprised that the farang mentioned in the article was Italian though. Italy is one of most racist countries in Europe. The ranger was lucky he wasn't black.

Even Thais can enjoy the German delicacy of schadenfreude.

Yup, especially when the Dailymail headline is "Instant karma! Swaggering tourist gets humiliating lesson after gathering a crowd and challenging bouncer to a fight outside Thai bar". It makes for a nice warning to the Brits. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14617097/tourist-lesson-crowd-challenging-bouncer-hotspot.html

Has the UK said thank you yet?

More video of the farang getting handsy in the bar. Not a good idea to piss off the mamasan? https://www.reddit.com/r/ThailandTourism/comments/1k0hqab/tourists_misbehaving/

If you lay hands on Thais or other tourists, security will beat the crap out of you. This and all other incidents like this seem to have no effect on tourism.

Ordinary civilians? This is Soi 6. Part brothel, part cage match, part bar. For the farang it was the worst day of his life. For the Thais on Soi 6 it was just another Tuesday night.

I think it is important to not piss off more than 1 person at a time. It is not like they are going to wait in line so that they can punch you one at a time.

The mountain does not go to Mohammed, Mohammed must go to the mountain. The farang needs to learn how to diffuse, not the Thai security on Soi 6. The Thai security that is way more efficient and effective than the Thai police. Oh, the farang was acting up BEFORE the crowd gathered. Multiple people told the farang to leave. He wanted a fight. Soi 6 is truly service oriented. Thais should have charged him 1000 baht after.

Watch the longer video that I linked. He was carrying on like Russell Crowe in Gladiator: "ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?".

Where's the fun in that?

Longer video showing the farang pushing his buddy off and going into fighting stance. He had plenty of chances to leave the area. FAFO https://www.reddit.com/r/MuayThai/comments/1jzuua8/farang_mocking_muaythai_stance_in_thailand_found/
