webfact Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Hong Kong man falls to his death from condo By The Nation A 40-year-old Hong Kong man died when he fell from the fourth floor of the IVY Ratchada Condominium on Thursday, according to police. Jefryanto Bin cracked his skull after he fell from the condo and landed in the building’s parking lot on Ratchadaphisek Soi 20 in Bangkok’ s Huai Kwang district, Sutthisan Police Station superintendent Pol Colonel Teerasak Sriprasert said. The body was sent for autopsy to Ramathibodi Hospital. A witness said the man seemed to be stepping back when he fell from the condo. Police said the fall was likely an accident as preliminary inspection showed two persons had visited him at 5pm on Wednesday but had left before the incident happened. The man was alone in the condo when the fatal accident happened.

Popular Post Just1Voice Posted May 31, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 31, 2019 Surprised there aren't more of these. I am only 5'8" (174cm) and every condo balcony railing I have seen in Chiang Mai don't even come up to my waist. The slightest misstep, and over you go. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I see at least one of those per week, and probably not all of them make the news. Granted it's not in the Bangkok forum but it's definitely a frequent thing. With low railing I can easily see someone after a few drink with his buddies go to the balcony to smoke, step back to sit against the railing and fall. Whatever the height I personally don't trust any railing, I never know how old it is and how it's really attached. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropposurfer Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I hope the story that people automatically blackout on the way down as the alternative of being conscious all the way down is too horrible to think about RIP mate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven100 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I'm thinking he was intoxicated and staggered into the balcony rail and overbalanced. Then he cracked his skull. RIP. HK.40Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
