Soutpeel Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 These guys must be mental midgets. Anybody with any brains would simply buy a few guns on the Black Market, walk into nearly any branch of any bank, stuff a gun ito the tellers face, grab a few million baht and scarf off. I am continually amazed at the mosterous lack of security, in nearly every Thai Bank I go into all over Thailand. I'm amazed that heavy duty gangsters (Thai or Ferang) don't knock over these banks. Even if you are caught, there is always a significant chance that you could buy your way out. The one hassle would be how to convert the Thai Baht to USD. One suspects like the two gentlemen concerned you have been watching too many movies....but to test your theroy, why dont you give it go and let us know how it all turned out... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colabamumbai Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Got busted maybe trying to buy some more cord. Smart lot they are eh. Lets implicate our friend "Richard". Makes you wonder how they have lived for ten years here. Would they be on overstay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maidu Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Too bad for them, they didn't employ one of Chalerm's sons. Then, they'd get off with just a reprimand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yunla Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 (edited) The men said that they had run out of money and were unemployed, so they decided to take money from the ATMs. Or alternately, just return to the UK and work for a year, and then return to Thailand for a nice holiday. Just a suggestion. Men like these are why I introduce myself as Swedish when I'm abroad, even though I'm dual-national English.

moskito Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I remember the tsunami in phuket. I was there and witnessed 3 coppers try to break into an ATM with hammers chizels and screwdrivers.

alfredthegreat Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 A pair of lazy scum bags. Hope they spend a nice holiday' in the BKK 'Hilton'. They put shame on the Brits, as now we hard working Brits may be tarnished because of them. Just like any other wrong doing by foreign assoles, when they get done, the Thais generalise and bring in laws making it more difficult for us foreigners. Poor things, 'We ran out of money' !!!! Was it for drugs? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfbandung Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Young guys and stupid. What the hell are you doing in a 3rd world country with no money? You see it here in PNG too. People down and out broke but they don't just pack up and go home. Perhaps running from the law in UK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyDee Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 when i read the headlines from MCOT I thought it had to be a mistake. surely no one would be this stupid. when the full report appeared it still seemed crazy.. the video sealed the deal.... first thought.."wot? no JCB"... and I , like many, felt a sense of national shame that one of the many thingsI came here to get away from.. has come to haunt us. In the local co op where I lived in the Uk, the ATM was raided 5 times. Staff were scared to be there at night after dark, and it was a small village way from the bright city lights.

sunshine51 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Good morning all.... There's nothing funnier than a couple of dumb mothertruckin young farangs who not only botch one heist but three in a row! Seriously...this is a Darwin Awards candidate in my books...or at least a movie of comical nature...picture this Ben Stiller and Jack Black as the two "apprehended" fellers and only a voice off camera as the third, still at large (small perhaps), lad. Perhaps Andy Rooney's voice? Or Jay leno's? Or.... take your pick... Well...I reckon we at TV could always get a donation to them to help em out in their time of need. Not money you goons... I'm thinkin about a large box of either Vaseline (in large bottles too) or a large box of large tubes of K-Y lube! They'll need it where they're goin... I'm off to the beach my forum brothers....tis a lovely day...simply lovely. Especially when it starts with a good gut busting laugh at someone elses utter stupidity! Bye for now....

Hello Tommy Dee.... The two most common elements in the entire universe are... 1. Hydrogen. 2. Stupidity And yes it gives the rest of us farang here a bad name but look at it ths way... the Thais love a good laugh and this is a hoot!

JurgenG Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Locals do not form an opinion from 1 isolated incident, they form an opinion from an every day dealings, and rest assured there is no shortage of "representatives" Thank you for noting that on this point at least Thai people have more common sense that a number of posters here. It still remains that these low lives give us all foreigners a bad reputation. Even if Thai are usually able to separate the wheat from the chav.

meatboy Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Lesson to be learned .... Do not believe everything you see in the movies. 24 and 34 and lived in Pattaya for 10 years. Guess they are unimployed, because they never heard of the word work. will they still have to do their 90days report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semper Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Mr. Alexander Milbourn aged 24 and Mr. Shaun Edward Tracy aged 34 who were both unemployed and had resided in Pattaya for the last 10 years. So Alexander has resided in Pattaya since he was 14? I know they said those Brit Pattayaites were demographically getting younger, but, geeeeeez. Probably his parents left him when returning home from a holiday. Can't blaim them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPlumbs Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Where did they get three different vehicles with no money? rented? stolen? If they didn't get money from the first attempt why do two more? Did they think banks don't have CCTV systems? No wonder they can't get jobs..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elwood Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 no, stupid they weren't. They tried a lift that Romanians have successfully used in Germany until the banks started to fix the safes containing the cash behind the actual ATM cases. Kudos from me to them for trying it. What I don t understand why they did not halt their plans after the first pullout went down the drain. They must have been desperate or just decided that something went wrong the first place, so let's do it again. After the second attempt you would guess they dust off. Coming back for a third time beats all odds. Some poster here suggested only scousers would do it. This is an apple fallen not so far from the tree, i guess. They are still my heroes as they did not try to steal from the people. They are your heroes? What a numbskull! Appears that, from this and your previous post, your moniker is apt.

Kilgore Trout Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 <deleted>' dumb ass falangs. Thanks for giving us other falangs such a good status here in our home the LOS. Every day the Thais realize that falang are not what they used to think we are (good, smart, etc...) because of dumb sots like these. Please, go pull your antics somewhere other than my home. Why don't YOU stop lumping all westerners together; the Thais in their ignorance may think we are all from one place but in this case; strictly Britian's finest at work I am not "lumping all falangs together". I think you are missing my point. Really, that seems to be exactly what you are doing, at least from the words in your post. "Thanks for giving us other falangs such a good status" "Every day the Thais realize that falang are not what they used to think we are (good, smart, etc...) because of dumb sots like these."

I will check myself. Done (sat and thought for 15 minutes). And I will explain starting from the bottom. A dumb ass is a dumb ass what ever nationality, color, tall, short, fat, thin, pretty or not, etc... In this case they happened to BE falang. "Us other falang". Those of us who actually live here (and I don't mean 3 months a year), are responsible human beings, inject posativeity (sp?, grammar ?) into society, are not drunks and/or womanizers or pedophiles, thieves, the list goes on. Basically those of us who are a respectful and positive influence on our surroundings. Get the idea ? What they used to think we are. Well I guess that 25 years ago falang in Thailand were looked up to due to our higher levels of technology as well as our respect for their (Thai) culture and religious beliefs. Are you getting my drift ? If not, I will be more than happy to teach you more (that is if you are actually open to learning). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
