I've never read such a load of feeble notions on one subject. The train looks 1/3 empty yet this Thai guy bumps into someone using a mobile, you never see Thai's using mobiles in public!

He probably thought he was being very clever knocking the mobile out of his hands, didn't expect a slap to improve his manners, yes, not all Thai's are little angels either.

I guess we found the Brit in question. 

 

Jezus is it so hard to accept that there is some scum from your home country instead of defending him.

What would you look like if you just caught someone with their hand in your pocket or your phone/passport/wallet in their hand?

Happend to me on the Cambodian side of the border crossing at Poi Pet, ... I think I just swiped him, and shouted, or pushed him away, .... Every one looked at me like I was Bad, ... but then they realized what had happend .... and they all just became neutral, and walked on. ... The Cambodian side of the Border at Poi Pet, ... about the most dangerous feeling place that I have ever been I think, including ALL of Thailand, which does not feel Dangerous to me. ... Though yes, I always am nervous in the big crowds on the MRT trains though.

Hope he get caught and put in Bangkok Hilton for a year ...Lesson need to be learned there . 

What a hero this moron is, picking on a scared bloke half his size.

wish I had of been there , summary jurisdiction would have been dealt to this gutless idiot.

is this really news worthy?

Probably YES, as it is a possible situation that does happen occasionally ... I still do not know though, if the young boy was a Pickpocket, or just got too close to the Brit, who went off, .... but looking out for Pickpockets is a pretty important thing to be aware of ... and we all ride the MRT, so worth reporting I think.

Watched it twice and didn't see a phone hit the floor, anyone bend to pick it up or a punch thrown. , only an attempted grab. HOWEVER, the Thai looked like a kid or young teenager. Credit to the guy in the yellow polo shirt for keeping him out of harm's way.

Recently we've read (and seen) gangs of Thais knocking seven bells out of a Yank and a Paddy. This guy deserved the same in my opinion.

 

I like your comment about hoping for this guy to get beat up , but i don't understand why you have to start your comment by saying you didn't see the iphone drop or didn't see a punch . You can clearly see him punching the guy half his size ,and if the person filming could have predicted the phone being knocked out of his hands i would ask this person for the lottery numbers from tomorrow , because how the .... can you know that someone is going to knock the phone out of his hands before it even happening and start filming to wait for it ??????? Or do you think this person was already filming before it even happened because he was making a documentary about people knocking other peoples phones out of their hands on the skytrain . BRUF

This guy is a disgrace, wonder if he would have been so quick to react if it was someone his own size or bigger instead of a small obviously frightened Thai.

 

Disgusting and sadly reflects/tarnishes on every "farang" here.

That's a pretty clear video and with the facial recognition software they have it shouldnt be too difficult for immigration/Police to track this guy down and deport him. (hopefully).

 

Deport him after charging him with assault. Hopefully when convicted he receives a fine and is kept locked up for a while before being kicked out and banned.

 

Judging by his accent, another London area <deleted> who thinks he's jack the lad. Really wish someone had decked him.

I know what I have to say about this....."great quality video from that phone".

Sadly you don't have to look too hard to find scum like him in Britain. The way he's dressed gives a good clue too.

He thought he was still in London for a moment.

Can you imagine ... just in the last few weeks we have had cheap Indians , thieving bogans from Australia , Russians that don’t pay their bar bills , Americans playing with guns and getting killed by the police , Scandinavians attacking their gfs , and many more (of course including those pesky brits) can we just agree their is vermin from every country descending on Thailand where even the most grubbiest of guys can get a root . 

I can't remember the "thieving bogans from Australia" story ? Where was that ? ... Like it wasn't Brits or Russians was it ? ... all these breeds being pretty fat, and white ?

this is very cockney behaviour when abroad

 

the only accent in the UK where people choose to use it to sound tough, as opposed to where they are brought up

 

Yep. And they all sound so tough, like Dave Courtney, when they come up to Glasgow!

People don't be quick to judge. There is little doubt that this is a pickpocket who has been caught out. Right at the beginning you can hear the Brit shout "don't try to take my/touch my..." later he also shouts "where did you get that ipad from?" He is clearly incensed with this Asian guy. He could have handled it better and let people know what was happening but I guess no-one knows how they will react in such situations until they happen. Pretty sure the other fella is not Thai as well. More to come from this story me thinks!

Bit like Mike Tyson taking on Barry Mcguigan. The Thai guys only about 4 ft 6 what a bloody hero????

the guy he's trying to attack is half his size!!  what a punk.  concrete therapy is indicated for this big tough guy.   this is one occasion where i would not feel too bad were he to be attacked by an angry group of Thais. 

Impressed, but not favourably. Goodness knows what would have happened had the issue been a serious one. This is not acceptable behaviour even in his own county so what makes him think it’s ok here. The mind boggles.

 

What an <deleted>. The little Thai guy is like 90lbs. He must feel really tough hitting him.

Man?????......anyway; deport this brit. Troublemaker....

Third look at the Video ! ... Yes, a Yob or not, (the British guy), it certainly looks like the young Asian man did, do something reasonably confronting to him ! ... And the guy in the yellow polo shirt, does look and act, just like his handler ! ... It would have been good if the Police did turn up to this one, just to see what the little Asian guy was REALLY doing ? ... And what part the guy in the yellow shirt real was playing in it. ??? ... He has a Kim Jong Ill haircut I see ! .... Not a conservative Thai one. ... and the Little Fellow does not look Thai to me either. ...

Just like farangs tar all Thais with the same brush, the reverse will also happen. 
Maybe some here will start to understand why they feel they are not welcomed. 
I’m yet to see the despised Chinese and Indians behaving like this. 

Thais despise the Chinese and Indians.

 

A REAL TOUGH <deleted>.......look at the size of the kid he is picking on.

He needs a mud hole stomped into him.

I would have enjoyed stepping in to protect the small guy.

And the guy in yellow had a pretty broad Book in his hand, ... Like who carries books these days ? ... and the little guy a Tablet, ... thieves often use these books, or pieces of Cardboard, and pretend to be Begging ... or even their Tables I guess, ... as a horizontal screen ... while they just softly bump up against you, and their hands just quietly try to find you money, in the cover under them ! ... (My Mother and I were Hit quite blatantly, by Bosnian Gypsies like this in Pizza once.) ... So I do know this one and well it also is an Old One ! .

BRITISH BEHAVING BADLY.

Simply lock these mongrels up for a few weeks in a Thai Jail, then deport them at their own cost. If they ( the Scumbags ) don’t have enough money to pay the costs....they stay locked-up until their relatives provide the money.

Just like someone else mentioned, some people see all Thais as the same, and some Thais see all foreigners as the same. 

Only people who think logically will understand this is not the case and not everyone behaves the same like him. 

Unlucky that this immigration sees most foreigners as the same and the well behaved foreigners who actually live here and not as tourist, will have to deal with the consequences. 

 

Thanks if there are tougher rules coming, random idiot on the MRT. 

Yes, I garbed hold of a German hustler once, and was dragged 20 m down the crowded morning street, here in BKK, shouting "Police Police ... Police" at the top of my Voice ! ... And no one took a bit of notice of us at all !!! ....

WOW! What a tough guy. After all it was his iPhone 11, which is of great value!

What mentality, what quality of the human species!

This guy should have had the famous 'happy ending' - deserves it!

This is obviously a well spoken and well educated Expat!!! He is no doubt trying his best to endear Farang's to Thai People with his words and actions!!!

I hope that any part of the Thai police can identify and find this man. If they catch him I hope he is prosecuted and dealt with severely.

 

I resent Scum like him being even remotely associated with the rest of us well behaved and respectful to others Farang's.

 

Council House Scumbag. No that is an insult to council house people. Let's leave it at SCUMBAG!!!

Farangs are guests in Thailand. This is not the UK,  and such behavior will mostly result in detention and deportation,  and of course being blacklisted.

My Saddo only replies to the first sentence, how can we be guests in Thailand when we are treated like criminals with this reporting nonsense?
