PHUKET: A 55-year-old Ukrainian man escaped serious after his motorbike struck a bridge, sending him plunging four metres below into a small canal in Kathu last night (Oct 1).

 

Kusoldharm rescue workers were informed of the accident, near the remains of the Phuket Floating Market, at 7pm.

 

The rescue workers arrived at the scene and with ropes and help from local residents managed to lift the Ukrainian, later identified by rescue workers as Mark Vladimirovich Zorin, to safety.

Never heard of a flying Ukrainian before. 

HIS motorbike or was it a rental?

No sympathy for him crashing his motor bike. However, landing in any canal over here...poor bu@@er. I wish him well

Going to assume that there's Vodka involved in this somewhere.

Maybe his name was spelt Soaring, not Zorin, whatever I think lessovich of it would be in order
