Krabi Airport: Woman Lying on Baggage Belt Inappropriate, Not Illegal

[webfact]

 

Krabi International Airport officials have addressed a recent incident involving a woman lying on a baggage conveyor belt for an Instagram video. Although her actions caused no damage to government property, making them non-pursuable legally, the behaviour has been deemed inappropriate.

 

The widely-circulated video on social media shows the woman sprawled across the conveyor belt, accompanied by music and a caption reading, “Can I lie down like this?? Saw it on IG, I’m Thai.” The clip has sparked considerable public criticism and safety concerns.

 

Chanyut Srikaew, acting director of Krabi International Airport, confirmed their awareness of the incident via social media. While no legal boundaries were crossed as no property was harmed, Chanyut stressed that the behaviour was improper and not the intended use of the equipment.

In response, the airport plans to install clearer signage and increase staff oversight, working alongside various airlines to prevent similar incidents. Chanyut indicated that the baggage conveyor belt is designed to support heavy loads without gaps, posing minimal injury risk.

 

However, it is meant strictly for luggage. Passengers are advised against sitting or lying on the belt due to potential injuries, particularly from curved sections or falling off.

 

The acting director urged all airport users to avoid such actions to ensure safety standards are maintained.

The IQ and ignorance for taking pics of some people

Yeah, nothing that hurt anybody. Let her be, and make a fool of herself online.

And then there are all the people who look at those pictures and follow those influencers.

IQ < 80?

Inappropriate, dumb and she likely needs a good slap up the side of her head. Bet it was for an Instagram shot or prank. Society is declining. People are getting dumber.

Now that they've said it isn't illegal,  all these wanna be influencers are going to jump on the bandwagon.

 

Just you wait till some Richard Cranium gets hurt, then we might see some proper action taken. 

 

I expect to see someone getting their finger wrenched off on one of the corner/turning parts of the belt. 

 

Hopefully just a few pinched bums (From the conveyor belt!) will sort this lot out.

Jeez,  lighten up people.  A harmless prank.  It didn't offend buddha or the royal family.  So much worse happens every day.
