Popular Post webfact Posted June 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2023 A chaotic scene unfolded at the First Pacific Hotel in Pattaya as a drunken Chinese man brought the establishment to a standstill. Perched precariously on the third-floor balcony, it seemed as though he might leap to his death. The 22 year old man was in a state of distress, alleging that a taxi driver had stolen his mobile phone. However, a subsequent investigation by the police revealed that the Chinese man, Li Mingming, had simply left his phone behind in the taxi. At one point, Li dangled from the balcony’s edge, gripping on by his fingertips, desperately crying out for help. Police swiftly arrived at the scene, employing a mobile aerial work platform to rescue him. Yet, in a surprising turn of events, Li managed to clamber to another balcony, evading capture. As officers tried to reason with Li, a guide from his tour group stepped forward to assist with translation. The guide explained that Li had gone missing after consuming a substantial amount of alcohol during lunchtime. According to Li’s account, he firmly believed that the taxi driver was the culprit behind his missing phone. He adamantly refused to descend from the balcony until his phone was returned, issuing threats to ensure its restoration. by Petch Petpailin Top Photo via Facebook/ DD ข่าวออนไลน์ Full story: https://thethaiger.com/news/national/drunk-chinese-man-rampage-in-pattaya-over-false-phone-theft-claim -- © Copyright Thaiger 2023-06-01 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted June 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2023 Anyone who threatens to jump from a balcony, should be allowed to jump. Assuming there are no people below, who could get harmed. Maybe let the cops clear the place out first, so nobody is traumatized by seeing it, and then just let him jump. 2 1 1 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or (and here's a mad thought) try and save the life of an obviously distressed person who probably will regret everything once the booze wears off.

I did not say it is impossible to die from a 3rd floor jump.... I said the odds were very far from a sure thing..... I would guess a very high number of 3rd floor jumpers have survived,....But many would be a medical mess...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickmouse1 Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 The way he manuevoured as the article stated and moved to another balcony indicates that by no means this pathetic soul was drunk. BTW, did he get his phone back? Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
