British tourist rescued after a fall from cliff on Samui Island

[webfact]

 

A Thai rescue crew helped to pull a British tourist, who had fallen from the top of a steep waterfall on Samui Island, to safety.

 

The victim was among a group of eight foreign tourists who had trekked to the top of the Na Muang Waterfall, a steep cliff which was made slippery by recent rainfall.

 

Luckily, the man did not fall to the bottom of the cliff, only to a spot not far from the top. He did, however, sustain some injuries and was unable to move, promoting his team mates to call for help.

Was the danger sign in the universal language?  Which is not Thai.   Glad no injuries or deaths in the rescue.  Surprised no name and pictures with finger pointing.

Must have seemed like a good idea at the time?
