Popular Post webfact Posted February 22, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 22, 2018 Videos: "Riddle of the mystery chairs" amuses millions online! Picture: Thai Rath CCTV footage had millions of online Thais in hysterics yesterday as not one but two plastic seats collapsed after being sat on my motorcycle taxi guys. In the first video a Bang Krabi rider sits on a red chair for a quick smoke. It collapses in a heap as he lashes out at the remains. The cause might have been put down to a little too much meat on the man's rice, however. The same could not be said of a subsequent piece of footage later that showed a thinner "win" rider sit down and play with his phone. He also ended up deposited on the sidewalk as shop owners, friends and a couple of inquisitive dogs come to investigate. The poster on Facebook - Paweena Suriyawithayawech - said it was like a movie series. There is the original movie "The Chair" followed by "The Chair 2"....the question is would there be "The Chair 3?".... Thai Rath joined in the ribaldry with a tongue-in-cheek headline calling it the riddle of the mystery chairs. Millions viewed both videos.

Popular Post cornishcarlos Posted February 22, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 22, 2018 5 million + views of the 1st video, according to the screen shot !! That is why I can't have a proper conversation with most Thais. Plus the fact that my Thai is pretty average :) 3 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwalt421 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I wonder how long the broken chairs remained in the sidewalk, blocking the way??? High quality stuff all around... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johng Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 (edited) Those plastic chairs go brittle after a while of UV exposure and not very sturdy to start with. Looks to me like the bloke who gave the first chair breaker a kick for knocking the bin over later on got some cosmic payback !

Popular Post trainman34014 Posted February 22, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 22, 2018 I had a brand new one collapse under me some years back, they are useless crap and i took all four i had bought the same day back to Tesco's and would not leave until i had a refund. They didn't want to take them back but they gave in when a crowd started to gather around to see what the problem was. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KMartinHandyman Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 My mil brings out an ancient plastic chair that has the broken back slats sown together with wire for me each Sunday for dinner. I always forget and start to lean back which almost does in the chair and sends me over. I was surprised to see I had to pay ฿380 for a slightly higher quality molded plastic chair with an 8 year guarantee (worthless I’m sure) when on the same day I bought the usual aluminum and cloth recliner on the roadside for only ฿550. I took the new plastic chair to mamas and she reserves it on the shelf for me on Sundays and I can finally lean back to relax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

outsider Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 The way the first guy lashed his anger at the broken chair was worth a few chuckles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docno Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I was arguing with a lady friend yesterday about the dangers of getting all one's news via Facebook. I guess there's not much chance of fake news misdirecting people if everyone is more interested in watching this sort of thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thian Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I need the bells and whistles or i don't know when to laugh. Thailand needs better plastic chairs which can stand UV-light...now they buy new plastic chairs of course and same thing will happen in a few years.
