A 26-year-old woman from Udon Thani was critically injured after falling from the 25th floor of a condominium in Pattaya and landing in a swimming pool, authorities said. The incident occurred at 7.06am on 28 December 2025 at a condominium on Soi Chaloem Phrakiat 3. Rescue workers provided emergency assistance before rushing her to hospital with severe injuries.

 

According to initial reports, the Pattaya Sawang Boriboon Rescue Radio Centre received an emergency call reporting a person falling from a height inside the condominium complex. Volunteers and officers from Pattaya City Police Station were dispatched to the scene to investigate and assist. The immediate impact was a major emergency response due to the severity of the woman’s condition.

 

At the scene, rescue workers found the injured woman, identified only as “Emmy”, soaked and bleeding from the mouth and nose after falling into the condominium’s swimming pool. She had fallen from a residential unit on the 25th floor and despite landing in water, the force of the fall caused serious injuries. First aid was administered at the poolside before she was transported urgently to hospital.

 

Police were informed that the woman had been living with her foreign husband in the 25th-floor unit. Prior to the incident, the couple were reportedly involved in a heated argument inside the room. Shortly afterwards, witnesses saw the woman fell from the balcony into the swimming pool.

 

Security staff at the condominium alerted authorities after the incident. Officers confirmed that the woman survived the fall but remained in a critical condition due to the height involved. The incident raised immediate concern among residents and prompted a review of CCTV footage and witness accounts.

 

Police said they are continuing to gather evidence and question those involved to determine the exact circumstances surrounding the fall. Investigators have not yet concluded whether the incident was accidental or intentional. No charges have been filed at this stage.

Argument with foreign husband? Attempted murder ... or she jumped. How can they prove if she was pushed or not. 

 

Even if falling in a pool, from that height it's a wonder she survived.

Yeah, but she might falsely accuse him of pushing her.

Not sure how they can prove someone was pushed.

Or she threatened to jump (suicide fairly often used as a threat in marital disputes) while balancing on the edge, then slipped and fell.

Yeah, but he might falsely claim that she's pa-bah po-bor and jumped.

Not sure how they can prove someone wasn't pushed.

Cannot be proven either way. 

If he pushed her, he will get away with attempted murder.

But maybe the more likely scenario is what Britman described.

 

Jeez! Water is rather hard when falling into it from 25 floors up.  If she survives, perhaps a Guiness Book of records entry. Good luck to her!

It is quite a miracle that she survived, from what I understand falling into water from that height is a bit like hitting concrete. 

 

Without speculating too much, many of the railings on the balconies in Thailand are lower than they are worldwide, and that is often a problem here and a rather huge safety hazard.

   She hasn't definitely survived yet .

But to land in the pool someone, or herself, must have propelled her away from the building. Pools aren't butted to buildings.

Correct. And one could surmise that a lot of the so-called suicides by jumping that happen in Thailand, are not suicides at all.

This is why they have the police in most countries, so you don't need to worry about such details.

Hope she survives her injuries.

 

I have wondered if you could escape a burning building by jumping into the pool.

 

Just did some Googling.

 

The record for a high dive into water was 58m and he hit the water at 120 kph.  The 25th floor is likely to be about 80 m, and the pool will not be very deep, so not a good escape method unless you're on a much lower floor.

In actual fact, she has definitely survived...so far.

   I did mean that its still possible that she wont survive the fall

Why could one rationally surmise that?

Probably about a dozen different reasons, but the easiest would be the fact that the police here are fairly lazy and slothful, and it's a lot easier for them to just simply rule it a suicide than to do real investigative work.

Poor woman. Imagine what was going through her mind in the seconds during her fall. I hope she can recover.

In these high rise condo base jump tragedies that are very sad,  it always has the ingredients of a couple or a situation,  involving a local (female) + falang (male) . How come really ?

No mention of what floor the pool was on.  If it truly was on the ground floor the odds of actually landing in it would be tiny.

 from 25 up... pool would be like a postage stamp.

Been reported that she jumped 

And the name of the Condo is?

25th floor and survived ?

 

an 8ft deep swimming pool would never allow this

The wind took her away from the building and into the pool according to another report.
