Sad, they tend to get into strife in Australia too

I'd say job well done by the Rescue team

Nobody complaining about them on TV of over 4 hours 30 minutes after posting, so it must be ok

Every pool I have been to in Thailand at hotels and condos is 1.2 meters deep. Why didn't he just stand up.

Drowned? Revived or resurrected?

I have a pool view of condo opposite that has a lot of Chinese tourists. A lot of them can't swim and are shy about that .They tend to use the pool opposite when it is closed and unstaffed late evening after they have been drinking .Notice this happened at 11 pm

....seems more and more risky .........and expensive...to do anything in Thailand...

I can't help wondering if basic first aid and resuscitation is taught in high schools here.

It seems to me that the first response is to get out the smart phones - to photograph someone bleeding on a highway.

I continue to be amazed that so few Thais can swim.
