Back to Pattaya we go, Mr Crusoe

Pictures have emerged on Facebook of a dramatic ocean rescue.

 

Mr Crusoe - for the want of a better name - was found floating in the sea somewhere off the coast of Pattaya.

 

It was not sure where he was headed - or if he really wanted to be rescued.

He seemed quite happy on his inflatable bed.

 

But the kind lads of ocean rescue thought it best to take him back.

 

Our heroes were Chat-ote Buajaroen, Narin Yaemdech and Kittichai Sathuchart on Rescue dinghy 504 who found the unnamed westerner all at sea and saw him safely back to shore.

 

No one was hurt and Mr Crusoe was soon reunited with Pattaya Soi 6.

 

It was not known if Girl Friday was waiting for him.

 

The story was reported on PR Pattaya on Facebook.

Between the certainty of dealing with an angry thai wife and the viciousness of the open sea, he took his chances.

Maybe a "Man-Friday" was waiting for him........??

He has A really nice "lie-low"

 

I'd like to know where he got it

How can you prove that was not in fact you?  smile.gif

Shouldn't they have an immigration officer on duty to check and stamp his passport upon entry into Thailand? :cheesy:

Could it be that he just went offshore to have a smoke?

So much more relaxing than throwing yourself off the roof of a condo!

Forget breadcrumb Olga. They may charge him for offering food to sharks and barracudas.

Next item to ban along with guns for farangs and smoking, no lilo beds for the beach. 55555

He was told to lie low bless him.

don't think he wanted to be rescued, he probably wanted to flee the stinking sh*t hole :)

"....or if he really wanted to be rescued."

 

OMG. Really? Maybe the reporter is practising to be a fiction writer.

The least I could say is smoking on such an inflatable plastic thing in the middle of the sea presents a dangerous risk of deflation faster than expected :smile:

Delightful!  And it's refreshing to hear some upbeat responses here for a change. 

 

However, where are the mystery solvers now?  Why so quiet?  

 

My hunches: 

He was waiting to receive a little shipment of drugs. 

He took his wife out there for a little dunk and had already dunked her (no wonder he looks so happy!)

He was just trying to get away from his Thai wife (no wonder... same as above).

Indeed, he didn't have a passport and figured they wouldn't bother checking for it if they thought they were rescuing him (he was drifting in from other shores). 

 

All ridiculous of course, But who knows?? 

 

 

 

Here we go again with the misuse of the word "hero".

  Are they seriously telling me that if you pick up a guy off an unflateable bed.....that makes you a hero.

   Jeez...would make real " heros" cringe.

He won't go to sleep on the beach at low tide again, will he?
