British Tourist Knocked Out by Pattaya Club Bouncer

[BerndD]

In German, it rhymes so beautifully:

 

"Und ist der Ruf erst ruiniert, dann lebt es sich ganz ungeniert".

"And once the reputation is ruined, then life is quite uninhibited."

 

This is especially true for Pattaya!

A tough Brit, a smart Democrat and a sensible Frenchman walked into a bar. Then I woke up from the dream.

Ahhh feel sorry for you did Trump wake you up moving around in your bed too much?

This is nothing short of attempted murder

To avoid further embarrassment do look up the definition of murder. Manslaughter is the very worst interpretation from a single punch in self defense. The labour MP in UK got a suspended sentence for very much worse than this

Attempting to assault a security guards (bouncer) is an idiot thing to do for any age and in any situation - and 62 is not old these days🤔

It's far too old to be picking fights with much younger men. He will know that now when he awakens

[mran66]

Two idiots fighting, only one down. 

 

having said that, security guards in bar areas should be trained to talk away or take down these drunkards nicely. Shoud not get agitated by idiot drunks. But hard to find such mature guys here to work as guard.

Maybe but a properly trained security person should know how to defuse the situation, not take off his uniform and knock out a 62 year old, more than likely intoxicated, bloke.

The trouble is, they aren't properly trained security guards.

[twizzian]

Probably just as well he was KO’d, otherwise the boots would have gone flying in too

Agree. I've made a mistake in my post. Replace should with would.

TBF, a lot of this type of thing used to happen in Australia.

 

They had thugs on the doors who just used to smash the crap out of people.

 

The government finally acted and now you have to do an accredited course and get a security licence to become a doorman..

 

It weeded a lot of the boofheads out.

 

That's never going to happen in Thailand I don't think.

Seems to be a lot of "troubling incidents" in the "Family Friendly Resort" these days!!!

Seems to me, the he got what he deserved. Why in the world would somebody push on a security guard?

Because his mind was telling him he was still 25 but it forgot to tell his body!!!!

Not to mention the i can take on the world liquid he had probably consumed.

Same in the UK - doormen have to have a licence.

As an ex-Bouncer for pubs and clubs in Oxford and doing security for bands at the Oxford Apollo I never had to resort to punching anyone. It was all about talking them down and having a conversation. These "thugs" as people call them, have a reason for being like they are, and if you can find out what that is you can talk about it. Clearly, this couldn't work in Thailand because most Thai Bouncers can't speak English. 

[wavodavo]

First of all we don.t know what the old bloke did that upset the guard as it was a pretty vague report. Did he make a big problem with one of the girls or other staff....did he refuse to pay his bin ?? .We don't know. he must have done something bad as the guard was definately gonna make him pay and give him a thumping because he took of his uniform first before he hit him and then like a coward took off in the crowd.

[JonnyF]

I find these guards/bouncers fairly reasonable.

 

I've had disputes in bars when Mamasan's have added their drinks to my bill after asking me for one and me clearly saying No. 

 

As long as you are calm and explain the situation they are fine. They are not looking to attack people for no reason.

 

This idiot was obviously looking for trouble and got more than he could handle. Same thing would happen if you squared up to a club bouncer in any UK city.

If this was legitimate, meaning the tourist initiated the fight, why did the security guard disappear?

"After the punch, the security guard promptly disappeared into the crowd. " 

Because The Security Guard is a SH**HOUSE Maybe ??

[Guderian]

A 62-year-old guy taking on a young and fit Thai security guard, probably trained in Muay Thai? He either has big balls or a small brain, lol.

Why do these yobbos think when then come to Thailand on holiday that they can misbehave and get away with it ??

This is the land of "smiles" where the Thai brutes smile.

Even so, no reason to punch an old guy.

He was SIXTY-TWO! That's not old - that's the new middle-age

[Sweede]

A security guards job is NOT to punch anyone unconcious or hurt anyone for that matter. His or hers job is to calm down and bring stability, detain if  necessary but never ever hurt or punch! No matter how stupid the potential custiomer is or how much any one thinks "he deserved it"!
One punch can kill someone, even in Pattaya..

Maybe, the guard tried that too many times, and have a bad record in trying to talk to drunk Brits. It´s definitely not easy. I´ve tried myself, and give my full support to the guard.
