Interesting end position 😂

Lost control in a curve as so many.

The electricity meter is broken/bent.

Did he hit it with his head?

Is that what they call pocket parking?

Walls, telephone poles, parked cars and trucks, and trees tend to be very unforgiving and should be avoided at all costs. Some people seem to have better  survival skills than others. Darwin was absolutely correct. 

Have they found his driving license yet? I'm sure many many Russians drive M/Cs in their freezing Icey cold country

Well that's a $64,000 question isn't it, because I've seen so many farangs, and Thais driving motorbikes with the crash helmet either hanging from the handlebars or elsewhere on the bike, or in the carry basket on the front – – won't do a lot of good there I'm afraid.

Inconsiderate parking, 

Would be mildly interesting to learn what happens next. Probably a paupers cremation paid for out of public funds.

A callous troll post has been reported and removed.

Sad for him.....but maybe his alternative would have been front line Ukraine.....same end game!

Vodka is quite flammable....

During my klast visit this year, I seen more than 50 percent of Motercycle riders without helmets. Women especially do not

want their hair mussed up. The amount of toruists without helmets was troubling, and i bet a lot of them did not have out of 

country medical insurance. I am happy to be back home in cooler tempertures, even the snow on the ground does not bother me.

  Hot season in Thailand is not for me. I also seen many drunk people riding motercycles, and am not surprised

to read this story of a young tourist dying from a crash.  RIP to this fellow, and good luck to all of you with this hot season.

If he'd stayed home and fought in the war he might still be alive.
