A man shot at six times by his son-in-law was not hit even once.

 

He said this was because he was wearing an amulet from a temple in Pattani in Thailand's south.

 

 

Neighbors gathered round to marvel at his miracle escape and the power of the Buddhist magic.

 

No one mentioned that the son-in-law might have been a poor shot.

 

Sanook reported that Cha-Am police found three casings from a 9mm gun near the Bor Prakhon housing estate by Soi 2 in Nong Ta Phot sub-district.

 

 

At the house of Worachai, 38, some 800 meters away they examined his black pick-up. It had five gunshots in the back side and front.

 

Worachai was not hit even once.

 

Worachai said that he was on his way home from Cha-Am hospital when he noticed the Toyota Vios owned by his son-in-law Chaisithinan, 23, following him and not attempting to pass.

 

Feeling that danger loomed he revved up and was turning into his estate when six shots rang out.

 

He said that there were two people in the Vios - his son-in-law was sitting in the passenger seat and was the shooter.

 

The car raced off towards Chao Samran Beach.

 

Worachai said it was a miracle that he was not hit and he said the reason for this was the solitary amulet that he wore.

 

He got the "Luang Phor Thuat" amulet, 1983 vintage, from the temple of Wat Chang Hai in Pattani.

 

"I have always put my faith in that amulet," he said as neighbors crowded round to wonder about the power of the amulet, reported Sanook.

 

Cha-Am police said that Chaisitthinan had been in jail for attempted murder in 2016. He had just been released.

 

They are now hunting for him.

obviously his son-in-law didn't have the bucks to invest in a more expensive 'lucky marksman' amulet, let alone an invisibility cloak.

While jail did not seem to stop his desire to kill.

  Lets just forget jail. Have him be a monk for a year that will fix it. and a 500 baht fine.

Obviously, the son-in-law is a piss-poor marksman, would have probably still completely missed if he had an uzi. Honesty, this mumbo-jumbo amulet nonsense is rather pathetic. 

Chaisithinan translated mean Mr Magoo.jesus Christ even ray Charles could of done a better job.???.  Now if It was reported that the 6 shots hit the 6 amulets he was wearing and saved his life I would be up for buying a couple.

Quickly please, my wife needs the licence plate number of the vehicle for the lottery.?

I love amulet stories they are the only ones left believable here.?

Just imagine if this amulet mumbo-jumbo was real. Thailand could conquer the world with a division of heavily-armed invincible Thai troops all wearing their bullet-proof amulets.

So he'll get another 2 years for this attempt? Throwing a cigarette butt on the beach, can give you 1 year....

A few Years ago in the south. A general spend his whole budget for bulletproof vests on amulets for his troops and said proudly to reporters that they would protect his troops better than bulletproof vests !!!

another amulet story for the buddhist holiday.

similarly to the other amulet story today, the fact that your son in law was shooting at you and that you now have bullet holes in your motor proves that your amulet doesn't work.

all it proves is your son in law can't shoot for shit and you were a jammy git.

if you're so sure in your amulets magical powers, go to your nearest shooting range, stand down next to the targets, put your amulet on ask someone to shoot you.

if you are not in a morgue, i'll buy the bloody amulet of you.

Oh they work alright, just not on us.

Dreamers lol

Ahh....the revolving door that is the Thai justice system....always entertaining.

Guys wearing an Atlanta shirt they need those amulets there lol

One night, we responded to a shooting report in NI.

When we got there it turned out the gunman had fired 6 shots from a hand gun at the intended victim from the street when he opened his front door, range about 9/10 yards. One round hit the bottom step the rest hit the walls on either side and above the door.

We decided the door was a lucky or even auspicious colour.

If it was up to me you would, but she's pretty tight fisted, best to play the numbers your self.

I got one of those too. Now I know why I have my member still attached when I wake up in the morning.

I know guys who might spend a couple of months salary on a lucky golf ball detector amulet.

Probably save them money over 4 to 6 months of golf.

"He got the "Luang Phor Thuat" amulet, 1983 vintage, from the temple of Wat Chang Hai in Pattani."

"Neighbors gathered round to marvel at his miracle escape and the power of the Buddhist magic"

 

That's convinced me of the magic. I'm going to make merit at Wat Chang Hai and put lots of baht notes in all the boxes with slits in the top that I can find.

Then pray that if ever I get shot at, that the gunman is as bad a shot as that son-in-law.
