It's Pattaya - if you'd walk up to every weird person doing stupid things you wouldn't have enough hours in a day. I get your point, but let's be real..

No. Sadly I'm afraid we can expect a lot more of this, mostly balcony dives, from our forum Tunnel Deniers as it dawns on them that the tunnel is completed on schedule, works fine, and ain't gon' flood. He may in fact have needed to prove to himself that it's real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So your an authority on tunnels in Thailand are you, I bow to your superior knowledge. Can you please advise me on how this one will flood other than suk road flooding with water to depths that has never happened previously ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
