Oh Please! he can see the coastline, boats, and dwellings from up there. How lost is that???? What a total crock!

looks familiar!

Guess he wasn't on the 'trail' then.  The area isn't that big, how do you get lost, besides having his phone/GPS with him ...

 

... that's embarrassing.   

 

Didn't know people actual bought phones for the 'phoning' feature.

Thai police phoned him and said “don’t worry, we’ve spotted you in your yellow wife beater shirt on satellite”, keep still, help is on its way. ????

He didn’t spend it on a working brain, that’s for sure. ????
