   But the many people suspiciously dying on Kao Tao is indeed real 

No, the deaths that have happened are not suspicious, they have been spun into sensationalised BS by 2 people with links to UK media, they have got 3rd or 4th hand drips of information and proceeded to invent a load of nonsense, purposely lie and omitt facts from their stories to get sensationalised headlines running online.

Why go diving there in the first place?

 

In the spirit of safety, I think it would be better to fly to The Bahamas.

Good diving there.

And, probably, much safer.

 

The Caribbean is also a very nice place to visit and dive.

Better than Thailand, by far, just IMHO.

 

Virgin Islands, for example.

 

 

 

 

Very out of touch commemt, its one of the cheapest places to learn to dive an get an open water cert, its on the 'to do' list of most backpackers, the vast  majority from UK, Ireland etc are heading Australia direction. Not the Caribbean or US.

Yep all BS, The deaths and disappearances have led to conspiracy theories and accusations of a cover-up. Relatives of the victims and other critics have accused Thai police of incompetence, corruption, and failing to carry out proper investigations.

Sorry.

I have never been a backpacker.

So, then...you are correct.

I am out of touch with the backpacker diving circuit.

 

I would head for the Virgin Islands, though....still.

   Its worth pointing out that the well being of tourism on Koh Tao is in your business interests , so its quite likely that you would be biased

Daily Mail says:

 

An Irish backpacker has been found dead in a hotel room on Thailand's notorious  Koh Tao island.

Robby Kinlan, 21, was found lying on his bed by a long-time friend last week while staying at the BaanTao Bungalo Resort.

He was discovered still holding his phone,

 

   Mossad ?

Did the Irish guy have any connection with Hezbollah ?

If the autopsy concludes he just "died in his sleep" with no other reason given, then that will indeed be a possibility.

Its not in my business interests at all. However if you have personally known 3 people that have had their unfortunate deaths spun into some sensational fictional BS, spread all over social media and then UK press, with no regard for the grieving families, originating from 2 total <deleted> in order to push sale of a book, you can become somewhat defensive, especially when reading comments from clueless people here.

i follow these type of stories.  sometimes scuba divers go scuba diving before going freediving afterwards this can be deadly as getting the bends is possible is this what  happened . if you free dive do it before not after scuba diving

From another post he died in his room, clutching his phone. Heart attack maybe, RIP .  No news on autopsy yet. 

I wonder if  they will remember all the people who died from  poisoning? Some hotels on Koh Samui ( not sure which island it was)  and in Chang Mai were using poison spray on the hotel beds !!! If I remember rightly it was 2 girls in One case and a whole hotel where lots of tourists were violently sick and there were a few deaths in Chiang Mai. They tried to brush it under the carpet as the owner of the Chiang  Mai hotel was some local hi so. Eventually the deceased were autopsied  and they found the culprit poison that was sold openly in Thailand. The hotel was demolished. 

I hope they check this poor Irish boy for poison. The others died in their beds too.

  In that case, why does the Temple coffin photo show a photo of another person ?

  Why is there one casket and photos of two people ?

  David and Hannah both died after the woman rejected the advances of a local guy .

   The suspect remains free .

Now it seems that another similar Western pair have both died .

Who was the latest Western Female that died and was she also drinking in the bar  where Hannah was drinking ?

  That's an avenue to explore

The family want his body for a funeral to be held in Ireland.

Repatriation of a body is more than 30,000 baht.

Insurance covers that. Also I am sure the Irish government would also.

Diving is probably listed as a dangerous activity and would not be covered by insurance.

 

Motorcycle are not covered either but u can add on ur policy any kind of dangerous things u intend to do to make sure ur covered

42 positive emoji (+1 from me) and not one negative for your post.

Surprised more haven't posted similar idea to what you suggested.

Perhaps cremated here and ashes returned to home country.
