webfact Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Two men die in mysterious Ayutthaya motorbike accident By The Nation AYUTTHAYA: -- The bodies of two men were found on a guardrail of a pedestrian bridge in Ayutthaya’s Bang Pa-in district early Tuesday morning. Police don’t know if the motorbike the men were riding was hit by another vehicle or if it were a single-vehicle accident. It appears that the impact of the accident hurled the men against guardrail of the bridge in front of Karunvej Hospital on Asia Road. A passer-by, Sarayut Kijnimit, told police he road his motorcycle past the bridge at about 2.30am and he saw the motorcycle lying on the road under the bridge. He said he stopped and saw the bodies. Satrayut said he dared not take a closer look and asked security guards at the hospital to check and they determined that the men were dead. An ID card identified one of the victims as Weerasak Phayachai, 19, of Bang Pa-in. The other man was unidentified. Lieutenant Athikom Thongdaeng, deputy inspector of Bang Pa-in Police Station, said police do not know yet what caused the accident.

halloween Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Who needs CSI when we have physics? There has to be a vertical force applied to lift 2 bodies some 4 or 5 (??) metres into the air. If their motorcycle struck a relatively slow vehicle at high speed some metres before the bridge, their forward energy could pivot on the front axle to supply the needed vertical component.

Seems plausible to me. The condition / damage to the motorcycle, especially the front wheel, may substantiate this hypothesis (or not). I'm disappointed because I can't find any pertinent images of the accident on the internet and also failed to get a street view of the over-walk using Google Maps. Does anyone have images or a GPS position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxYakov Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 (edited) Was the "guardrail" the article referring to the road-level guardrail or the over-walk railing? It seems more likely to me that it was the road-level one: Here's a pedestrian over-walk in the Bang Pa-in district or thereabouts showing a protective road-level vehicle guardrail, not the one where the accident allegedly occurred (Google Maps Street View - 14.2380957 100.6127943) Edited September 13, 2017 by MaxYakov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
