webfact Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Phuket mystery visitor could be armed and dangerous By The Nation Something mysterious has washed up on Phuket’s Nai Yang Beach, and it could be explosive. The Third Naval Region’s ordnance disposal team was scheduled to haul away the metallic, torpedo-shaped object on Wednesday. Visible only at low tide, it’s been meanwhile fenced off and marked as a hazard with a buoy. The object – five metres long and 60 centimetres in diameter – was spotted on Tuesday in the tidal sands of Sirinat National Park. It’s covered in rust and barnacles. Photos of the object circulating on the social media have drawn suggestions it’s an old military torpedo or a vessel used in mining minerals.

Pakaty Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I think Kim Jong Un had misfire. Lets hope its a fizzle. 5 meters long? Looks about half that from what I can see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarenBravo Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 That doesn't look like a torpedo. Looks more like a plane's drop-tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxcorrigan Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 If it had washed up Pattaya Beach no one would have noticed, it would have looked completely normal, or "norman" as my Thai wife would say! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
