oneday Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 If you want to kill someone in Asia and get away with it, just push them off a high building. All falls from buildings are automatically ruled a suicide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gettingaround Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Did you not read the part about the CCTV footage? The US Embassy have viewed it too. Build tall hotels, expect jumpers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxo1947 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 (edited) I really wouldn't make that my choice of exit.........Cambodia is so easy to buy (The peaceful Pill) as its been named........or any mix of stuff you want. If you really feel like cashing in buy some........book into a top hotel.... take them in the bath (or with the bath running, loud music on)......someone will come. Don't hit some poor guy & his wife out for a stroll , doing a 20 floor drop........it's real bad Karma.....................

connda Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 The rooftop 'barrier' was just shy of 5 feet high. Not something you're going to just fall over. But easy enough to jump over or to be tossed over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
