I wonder how many people accidentally fall over onto the floor, resulting in black and blue bruises, a bleeding nose, bleeding from under the body and involuntary urination, all of which ends in death?

I'm not an expert, but don't bruises usually take several hours or even a day or more to appear?

Even if you were hopelessly drunk, (and there was no suggestion that this was the case), the chances are that you would put out your hand (or hands) out to help steady your fall.

These ever mounting reports of 'accidental deaths' and apparent 'suicides' by farangs in Pattaya, jumping from condos etc are becoming more and more worrying.

I agree that some of these deaths appears suspicious, but an awful lot of people die from accidents each year.

In the UK, similar size to Thailand, there were over 18000 deaths arising from a range of accidental causes in 2008 - an incredible number but I suppose we all have to go sometime.
