Super-fit Solihull man battling horrific injuries after high speed motorbike crash in Thailand

[uchibenkei]

Insurance invalidated for not wearing a helmet or could have expired. Very possible the wife doesn't have access to his accounts so started a gofund me. If you don't like it, don't donate. Real simple.  Probably a bunch of fat slobs here jealous of this guy's lifestyle, so they're happy to see him suffer. Ha ha ha

A friend loses his life last week in buri ram in a motor exidend , Not his Fault....

[SteveK]

Boasting about buying houses and brand new motorbikes on FB, but didn't have valid insurance and didn't bother with a helmet?

 

Anyone using GoFundMe to pay bills should not be selling financial advice!

I think the main point is he had a travel insurance which was only valid for max. 90 day per journey.

 

They started GoFundme because many did before and they can. I don't think it's right but you see, they already got few thousands...it works. I actually need a new Ferrari, maybe I could also start a campaign.

 

I definitely will not contribute for whatever reason but wish a speedy recovery.

I wonder if Boss Youdovoodo has a new Ferrari yet or have the dents been knocked out of t'other one.

Oh i see he has a Russian wife. My misstake. But i dont see anything about him scamming people, with regards to this accident.

Pretty sure the "scamming" reference is to his business activities, not the accident. 

 

You didn't look at the link (provided several times now) to the article about the warnings issued by the Maltese, Swiss and UK authorities in relation to his dodgy business activities?

 

Here's what it says (in part):

 

Quote

The MFSA warning is not the first, as the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (Finma) have already cautioned investors against dealing with Tower of London Worldwide.

 

Looking at the pictures and reports, the accident looks genuine and on a personal level, I wish him a speedy recovery - nobody likes to see a fellow human being suffer from those kinds of horrific injuries.

Hopefully he recovers but a lesson to all about bikes in Thailand. Absolute no no.

Try making a claim on your insurance they will not pay quoting  the fact that governments told you to return home all insurances are invalid. I called to check if I was covered with covid because I purchased it long before covid and they told me. Lucky I didnt need to claim but people think they covered until they need it

Busted pelvis,right side, shattered wrist, internal bleeding, broken fingers on both hands, dislocated right shoulder, exploded left testical, broken left foot. 1 million thb and my expat club insurance paid 220k.. oh I know why; i live here, married and have a thai family to look after..and i wore a crash helmet.. so be it.  :0) 

I understand the belief of the sun & wind blowing on your face and the feel of your hair [if you have any] flowing due to no helmet.  I having worked in O.R's in my career you would have a change of heart.  I myself when in Pattaya riding a 125 bike took a curve too fast slipped on a curve, took a dive over the handlebars and went like a rocket headfirst into the pavement.  I distinctly remember the second waiting for the hit.  I remember the feel of the top of my head slam against the top of my helmet.  I stood, feeling dazed seeing blood running down my knee not feeling pain.  I was so grateful.  Wearing a decent helmet is the best method to spend your.  Like insurance, you may hate the cost but if you need it you are damn happy to have it.

 

He writes above he 'wore a helmet.'  If so lucky he is.  Even seatbelts don't guarantee survival but does improve the odds.

I think this highlights one of the key differences between a Travel Policy and a Medical/Expat Policy.

 

You are not travelling if you live here, but many will opt for travel policy as they tend to be cheaper.

Most insurers will insist on you being a resident of (UK in this instance) and qualifying that as meaning resident for the previous 6 months. His policy was invalid on several points including riding a big bike and particularly no helmet 

[Wake Up]

We all make mistakes and do dumb things and suffer the consequences. But hopefully the man will recover and empathize with his family, friends and him for the pain and hard lesson.  

 

Go fund me pages are not something I enjoy seeing but you don’t have to contribute anything. Just ignore that part of the story.

How can you type up such a nasty comment regarding someone who had a serious accident. He is injured badly for Christ's sake..

Yes, he had a serious accident because of stupidity. No helmet and speeding! That´s utter stupidity! No sympathy from me either.

With that said, I do not wish him to be crippled or die because of that. Only that he have himself 100% to blame for his condition.

[Tony125]

Some of you use your heads now, It's been stated that he has not regained full conciousness yet so it is not him but his brother who is asking for money on GoFundMe as  a family member trying to get funds to help out and maybe fly (in normal times) get family over to visit him. He paid cash for motorbikes and house so could always sell them or take a loan out to cover medical exspenses IF he recovers, As far as business being dodgey there are warnings  to be careful of investing with him but no charges of improper or illegal dealings against him, you know innocent untill proven guilty.

Was stupid to ride big bike without a helmut but think most of  us have done something stupid/foolish at least once in our lives.

With his previous  business  history as can be seen easily in the UK companies list he doesnt seem like an investment banker to me,more  like a gift of the gab car salesman. So his  Wife  has  no access to any of  his  money then, seems  like the Rolex the $800000 Brabus the House and the endless  holidays, surprised he found time to do any work. I  know an investment  banker for Morgan Stanley has to work  like a  dog

Never. But have read about many who lost everything. Whereas he is showing off the proceeds of his likely ill gotten gains, but expecting others to foot the bill for his recklessness.

I reserve my sympathy for those I believe deserve it.

Yes - someones's money was paying for his lifestyle. People who work hard for their money and save up to buy things don't usually go gobbing off on FB about it.

[CG1 Blue]

So he got away with setting up an unregulated financial business that probably fleeced countless investors out of their money, and seems to have used the ill gotten gains to fund a very nice lifestyle. 

Clearly he's the daredevil type, so he also got away with living on the edge up until now, e.g. riding fast bikes with no protection. 

 

I do sometimes envy people who live life this way, without a care. But every now and again I am reminded why a more cautious and (more or less) law abiding approach to life is better in the long run. This story is one of those reminders. 

 

That said, I do wish him a full recovery. If he gets through this I'm sure his outlook on life will change a lot.

Superman found his Kryptonite.

No helmet and traveling at high speeds down a city street in the #1 country in the world in traffic fatalities is asking for a world of trouble. He learned a hard lesson and I hope he pulls through, but severe TBIs like Dean sustained that result in intracranial hemorrhaging is comparable to a stroke and is life threatening. The pressure caused by the hematoma often causes severe brain damage and death. IF he survives his life changes drastically forever. For those who want to join in, say a prayer for Dean's recovery.????

[belfast3]

Very sad news and feel for the guy but there's really no excuse for riding without a helmet and when riding high speed, he should have had full protective gear on. He has quite a few videos on his FB page of him riding recklessly taking selfies with no helmet on - seems like it was just a matter of time. 

[JJNThailand]

A mans got to know his limitations (Harry Callahan). He clearly did not know, riding fast and without a helmet.

 

If he is in fact is a scammer and took advantage of others, then karma is working and correcting things.

 

 

 

I can not find any pics of the actual crash? Theirs always pics with the police and involved vehicles.
