Novice monk falls onto railings at temple

 

 

Sanook reported that a novice monk fell off the second floor of monks' quarters at the temple of Wat Chaichana Songkhram (Wat Tuek) around 10.30 pm last night. 

 

Ruam Katanyu rescue foundation attended the scene on Chakrawat Road after the young monk pierced his leg on railings.

 

The railings were cut and the novice was handed over to the medical staff of Klang Hospital.

 

 

It appears that the monk had leaned out for something and fell. 

 

The temple is well known and near the Chinatown district of Yaowarat in Bangkok.

Ouch! ????

I'd always imagined monks living in small single storey buildings away from the temple buildings.

It seems even monks now live a high-rise existence. You live and learn.

 

 

Climbing back in after a night on the town would be my guess

The second floor, i.e. in Thailand one floor above the ground is "high-rise"?  You live and learn!

When he showed up at the fancy dress party no one believed he really was a monk.

Blame that Lao Khao

By the look of those spikes on the rails he was lucky to only have pierced his leg. Brings a tear to my eye just thinking about it...

I suppose that could be similar to the Colgate toothpaste 'ring of confidence' (1960's advert).
