Phra Ek Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 he was alerted of the jump right after it happened and informed the Samitivej Hospital to rush an emergency medical team to the scene Doesn't bode well for travelers that there is apparently no emergency medical team available at the this supposed international hub of aviation. What's the response time from Samitivej to the airport? There are at least three Samitivej hospitals - one at the airport. They have medical facilities on the lower floor - so I guess this is what was meant in the report. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the response time from Samitivej to the airport? Let me go one step further. They obviously have to have an emergency team there, just in case there's an issue with a potential aircraft mishap. With this being the case, there's no onsite emergency crew, paramedic at least, that could have been called in instead of calling in someone from the city. That's seriously F'd up. What Intl airport that is one of the major hubs in Asia that cannot accommodate this. As mentioned above - Samitivej has a small hospital at the airport - but don't let the facts get in the way of your knee-jerk Thai bashing. But I doubt any airport will have the facilities for serious head trauma based at the terminal - the local unit will be more for illness amongst travelers and first aid. Very sad incident though - for the man himself and the medical crew who needed attend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim walker Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 soon foreigners will only be allowed to walk at ground level at the airport and be allowed to live on first floor condominiums, strange why people come to Thailand to kill themselves can they not just do it at home.

retell Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Very sad when people do this. How desperate must someone be to end it all like this? And 3 to 4 a year from the same spot? Maybe the need higher railings or box them in. Rip , agree with that , some kind of safety is missing there , and at a lot more high up points around the world , if someone is determined to take their life they will find a way , at least they could make the well known spots safer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redandyellow Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) The jumper never contemplated what kind of trauma onlookers will have for many years to come. Why do they have to do their selfish act in such a public place? I know they probably have lost the will to live through extremely sad circumstances, but the majority of us have chosen to die of natural causes many years from now. Totally agree - especially any family with young kids witnessing this.

redandyellow Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) There are prayer rooms, Info Desks and such things at airports. How about a 'Counseling Room' for distraught people? It may not help all troubled folks, but perhaps a few. Also, I agree that, the method used for a suicide, can traumatize others. What if some kids were walking along, on the pavement below and saw or were hit by the jumper? Come on guys. If you're going to pull the plug, that's sad, but don't traumatize others in the process. Like they're thinking of the kids that may see the aftermath in their moment of supreme grief.. <deleted> plus one Edited March 13, 2015 by metisdead Profane acronym removed.

samuibeachcomber Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Why do this at an airport? Are they that sad to be leaving? probably,yes..South east asia(aka thai fever) can get in a man's blood and its usually when the money runs out that these things happen. Hotel california(you can check out any time but you can never leave) comes to mind. It can happen to anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barin Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Poor Man, we never know what goes on in Peoples Minds.. Especially if someone is mentally ill. Many mentally ill people commit suicide as a result of severe depression. There are more people around us with various mental disorders than we might think. In most cases they look like normal people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docno Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 It's a deadly cocktail that happens over here. Thailand attracts more than it's fair share of struggling people: men coming out of a failed marriage, men who have found themselves unemployed and unemployable, men who have never really been able to make a go of it back home. They arrive dreaming of a land of friendly, young and beautiful women, sunny beaches, welcoming locals. They may even be convinced in their first few weeks or months that their dream has come true, that they've made their escape to paradise. But no place can meet such unrealistic expectations, and they end up disconsolate and devastated ... they if their dream of paradise turned out to be a mirage and there's nothing left at home, where else to go? Many of them have probably left their friends behind, maybe even burned their bridges, and find themselves themselves alone in an alien land (I wonder how many have really even experienced drastically different cultures before they come here). So it's not surprising that we read of these things week after week, though sad nonetheless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
