A YouTuber found a human skull while filming content on the banks of the Mekong River in Nakhon Phanom province in northeast Thailand yesterday.

 

At 6pm, Chanathip Chapuban – aka Mukdahan Moss – was riding a motorbike and filming content for his YouTube channel when he noticed something by the water on Sai Thong Kot Boon Beach (Si Khotrabun Golden Sand Beach), about 800 metres from Sawan Chai Khong Road.

 

Moss said he wondered why no one else had found the skull since a lot of people attended the beach for Songkran celebrations between April 13-15. He finished filming his YouTube content and called the police to the scene.

 

Police and staff from Sawang Nawa Ruam Rescue Foundation travelled to the scene to inspect the human remains. Officers found the upper half of a human skull about five metres away from the water. The lower jaw was nowhere to be found.

 

Many types of shellfish were found inside the skull, so it is expected that this person died a long time ago and the current carried the skull along the Mekong River until it washed up on the shore and was found yesterday.
