Sole searching: Foreign man’s shoes stolen from Thai beach - video

[harryviking]

I used to leave my NIKE shoes outside for a long time. Then one day I washed them and hung them up to dry....then they were stolen! Of course...who want to steal dirty smelly shoes!!  Also, many shoes have been lost lately due to some street dogs had puppies that just love to steal them from the houses to play with them and chew them up!! LOL!

There never seems to be any empathy shown by posters here when others experience misfortune. Why do you have to be so mean?

I've got a lot of empathy for you if you reckon this guy is serious. 

 

He's a phoney, a fake.

Opportunistic theft is common at Thai beaches. Why is anyone surprised?

The only surprising aspect of the thefts is that tourists would be surprised that they were  robbed.

I have seen people running about screaming because their wallet was stolen from their pants. It's why the police post signs to  watch your valuables and to lock them up.

 

It is becoming very common in the USA. The thieves are after E bikes. Just read two estories of $ 3,000-5,000. E bikes being stolen in my area. Leave your garage open and the E bikes are gone in minutes. Usually they steal it in the early hours of the day.

Could be a lie for sm attention. If in Pattaya could definitely also be Indians. Temple shoe theft is very much a thing in India

I was ten days walk into the backcountry of Nepal in the 80's staying at a guest house with a drunk obnoxious German. We all left our boots by the wood stove to dry overnight and guess who's boots had disappeared by morning?  

 

Either the dude on the beach was an <deleted>, or the crime was committed by someone who usually does their shoe shopping outside the temple doors. No news here...lets move along.

Calm down everyone, he's French !

 Is this really news worthy??

He is lucky the motorcycle was not stolen along with his shoes.

There are advantages of having UK 12 size feet!

I just hope that Erling Haaland can use his Size 12s this weekend. 555

Many speculated that the culprit might have been a dog, potentially having sneaked off with the shoes.

 

perhaps the culprit was a weasel

In other news: in an outrageous act this morning a morally depraved neighbour dog stole the daughters left shoe.

A broom and short chase managed to recover the robbed shoe.

My flip flops were stolen from My Khe beach in Da Nang. Size 11. Wanna bet it was another foreigner? Vigilance!

[twizzian]

Having big feet, my shoes are mostly useless to most thieves, but I’ll be more vigilant next after reading this terrible news.

On the other hand it could have been worse for him he was TikToking in Cambodia
