Let'S Make The Directory Of Weird/Freak/Amazing People Of Thailand

[samlowry]

Hello, friends!

When I was teenager, in my country we had a TV show of funny amateur videos. Almost every month they presented at least 1 video about some guy from Thailand, who do some strange performance. I remember only 2: guy with a very long hair, he can swing kids on his hair. And guy, who make sandwiches with a bread and tech. liquids (like an oil, etc). So I had imagination about Thai people as about very creative and liking to perform. So - let's collect all such performers in this topic.

I know about only 1: roti maker from Ko Tao. If you will search "roti ko tao" @ Youtube - you will find hundreds of videos with him. He make roti extremely fast.

Also I know about not performer, but strange man: he sells newspapers at Chiang Mai markets, he has 3 parrots at his bike and he inform people about his service with strange loud voice.

Pls, share info about other such people here.

There was an article years ago, on the newspaper we are not allowed to mention, about a guy selling chicken barbecue..He had built an array of hundreds of mirrors to reflect solar rays and cook the chicken..

I think i had some trouble with cloudy days though.

He told me that he bought them in Bkk. Maybe not the same man, but it was at CM Gate and they were only 'youngsters' when I saw them a few months ago. Lovely birds though (I like parrots).

I hope you win. I had a mate years ago who used to have a glass eye. He used to take it out when he played pool for money. Confused his opposition and won a lot of games.

At the intersection between Rama 3 and Rama 4, I was pulled over by a cop for jumping the lights. He took my passport and license, and 30 seconds later gave them back to me with my ticket. That freaked me out.
