A Malaysian tourist‘s trip to Phuket took a dramatic turn when she fell from a hotel balcony in Patong, landing on a parked car below. The incident occurred early today, November 1, sending shockwaves across the bustling tourist area.

 

The local police in Patong responded swiftly to an emergency call at 4.37am, arriving at the hotel situated on Rat-U Thit 200 Pi Road. Upon arrival, police officers and rescue workers from the Kusoldharm Foundation found the 28 year old woman lying on the ground beside the damaged vehicle, suffering from multiple broken bones.

 

Eyewitness accounts revealed that the tourist had been drinking in her room with her husband before the accident.

Hope she wasn't Muslim. Hard to explain to the mother-in-law that she was boozing.

Another accident due to Thailand’s low balcony railing ? Malaysian balcony railing is higher than Thais as we build according to British standard .

English translation please.

 

If she was pushed by him he presumably expected her to die and he would get away with it.

 

She is alive and could tell the police he pushed her.....even if he didn't!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

The phrase “bricking it” is British slang, used to describe intense fear or anxiety. It likely stems from the idea of fear causing a loss of bodily control, metaphorically “producing bricks.” This colorful expression has its roots in working-class slang, and though there isn’t a precise origin date, it has been in common use in the U.K. since at least the mid-20th century.

There's a lot to remember.......even as a dyed in the wool Brit I have to look up some slang terms.

 

It's interesting to see how many are either misunderstood or have been 'corrupted' over time.
