Generally: I am only 172 cm (5"7) and still it's more like belly button when visiting friend or mates 😁 Edited February 12 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebell Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 'This is the fourth foreign national to fall from a Pattaya condo in roughly a week,' As he's Chinese some measures will be taken: a committee will have regular meetings until 2025; their findings + free lunch vouchers/travel expenses will never be published. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally: I am only 172 cm (5"7) and still it's more like belly button when visiting friend or mates 😁 It's the one full of Chinese and full of Air BNB renters, and the top of the railing is about half way between the nipples and belly button area for someone around 180cm tall. Impossible to fall over it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are these nipples of a 18yr old woman or a 75 Yr old woman, can be a big difference...🙄 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigStar Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 7 hours ago, ikke1959 said: Why are so many people falling from balconies in Pattaya??? You see, they realize they've at last reached Heaven. Life can never get better than in Pattaya. Nothing more is worth achieving. And the thought of going home or moving elsewhere is unbearable. It's long been ackknowledged, nothing new here. @Addicted2Pattaya on 2008-10-13 00:39:08: If pattaya did die. where would be the next best place ? @Sommaz on 2008-10-13 10:47:57: Heaven of course. Best to depart now in the state of bliss. To paraphrase an old poem floating around in the 60s, This is IT This is really IT. And THAT is THAT.

CDG931 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 (edited) Why are there so often such tragic events in Thailand? If this happens so frequently, whatever the reason, why not impose MUCH higher railings for balcony edges? If this could prevent 50% of accidents, that would already be something.

A lot of men nowadays have those low hanging nipples. You may see a lot of moobs during Songkran. Those don't get much love here for some reason.

Because you are reading news about incidents in Thailand. This same thing happens in all areas with high tourist footfall... Spain, Cancun.... I'm not sure if the numbers of 'balcony falls' in Thailand or specifically, Pattaya, are disporportinately high compaured to the number of tourists. It would need to measured in: Number of falls per 100,000 tourist days... to achieve a comparable metric, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
