PHUKET: An 85-year-old man walked out of his hotel at Mai Khao Beach yesterday afternoon, only for his body to be found soon after in shallow waters where the waves lapped against the shore some 500 metres from the resort where he was staying.

 

Lt Col Thada Sodarak of the Tha Chatchai Police was called to the scene, about halfway along Mai Khao Beach, at 5:30pm.

 

On the sand was the body of Swiss national Paul Brunner. Lt Col Thada noted that Mr Brunner was wearing black swimming trunks, and that were no wounds on his body.

RIP, passing in nice surrounds is the way I would like to go.

85 is a good innings in anyones book . RIP

RIP... Hopefully his death was of natural causes...

 

Assuming that, there certainly could be worse places to go...

 

He decided his own end fair play.RIP

85, how natural can you get

RIP fella, if I could snag a demise like yours at 85 I would feel happy. I hope your life was full and enjoyable. I hope your last days were full of liveliness.

He just missed out on sunset...

Rest In Peace Man ????

Time to play the lottery., 

An end I would like...... 

RIP mate

My guess is he went exactly how he wanted to go.

Hope his last thought was a happy one.
