A 43-year-old man with mental health issues was safely rescued after jumping into a 5-metre-deep well for unknown reasons in Nakhon Si Thammarat’s Chalerm Phrakiat district.

 

Emergency responders from the Tai Tek Tung Foundation were alerted to the incident around 13.00 at a residence in Village 6, Thang Phun subdistrict. Upon arrival, they found the man, identified as Mr. Kosin, standing in water at the bottom of the well. He was shirtless, wearing long trousers, and appeared disoriented.

 

Rescue workers lowered themselves into the well, using a tripod rope rescue system and securely tied a rope around Mr. Kosin’s body before hoisting him to safety.

 

Fortunately, Mr. Kosin sustained no serious injuries, only minor scratches. Family members expressed gratitude to the rescue team and said they were unsure how long he had been in the well or why he jumped in.

 

The family pledged to monitor his condition closely and provide the necessary care to prevent similar incidents in the future.
