Intoxicated Finnish tourist falls off motorbike and blacks out in middle of the road

I have heard that booze is very expensive, at least in Norway, and likely in Finland as well.

These hardy northerners tend to go somewhere tropical, then some forget not to get

plastered and still ride their rental bikes around. If he had done this in Canada, well in this time of the year, he would likely have frozen

to death.

Not just intoxicated. They drink until they fall of their chairs. Or bikes as in this case.

 

I read somewhere that many Swedes, Or was in Scandinavians? also used to get like this. Something to do with the high taxes and strict controls on where and when they can buy alcohol back home. Obviously that doesn't apply here.

Don't think so, it's just their tolerance level is lower than us British, mainly sustained by the Scottish ????

I flew Finnair this Summer.  The only airline not offering free drinks; G & T well over my price range.  Double my usual price to UK AND no overhead locker space; had to sit 14 hours with my carry on between my feet TWICE!  No wonder this burke hit the bottle hard when he arrived.

Making himself and his country proud. He can collect his brain and dignity at lost and found at airport arrivals on his way back Finland.

Sad to inform you, but the latest report said they deemed it to faulty to save. Nothing to collect.

    Escorted back to his room.  What a joke.  He should have been locked up to sober up and then charged with drunk driving, endangering the safety of others, and likely driving without a proper motorcycle license.   At least he didn't maim or kill anyone but he easily could have driving so drunk he literally passed out while driving.   Unbelievable that drunk driving and road safety are given such short shrift.
