You've obviously been here too long....adopting the Thai mentality of violence first....!

Same here - censorship? God forbid the world knows what happens in Thailand's Hub of Family Vacations

[Formaleins]

The Video didn't last long before it appears to have been pulled!

+1, interesting.

Yep, probably removed on request of TIT, sorry TAT i meant ... just hope it was shared amply before.

I didn't know they played baseball in Thailand. Anyway it's good to see Lucile getting around.

need context here.  what happened?

Oh I think that the only context needed is that a Thai man threatened a woman with a baseball bat.

 

That she happened to be a foreigner is neither here nor there.

It appeared blocked for me too, but I just googled the title of the post and the video also appeared on a stickboy website and was able to be viewed.

Perhaps you are correct; I pretty much understood what he meant to say.

Thanks for posting the video .

Bit of an anticlimax though, couldn't really tell what happened !!

But in the true spirit of TV I will make some wild guess about what happened :

He advertised a baseball bat on Craig's List ( not Gregg's list ) !!
They arranged a meeting, she shouted over " hey, you the guy selling a baseball bat "
He replied " yeah, got it here "
She replied " call that a baseball bat !, I've seen bigger wieners !!"

And they parted their ways !

Next !!

The Thai headline to the video says, Thai tough guy in a white saloon brushes against  a motorbike, nearly knocking off a Western woman and then brandishes a  baseball bat threatening her!

[Ulic]

Where on earth did he get a baseball bat.  

[sikishrory]

In contrast i remember watching a thai guy in a ute ram a thai guy on a motorbike from behind. Motorbike guy managed to hold on but a couple of bits of plastic were smashed off. I stopped walking waiting for an ensuing fight. They both calmy had a discussion and drove off. 

I guess it must be different when you smash into westerners.

Threaten someones life for filming you!?
Now that has got to be one of the stupidest things in the world to die for! You do realize that when threatened with lethal force, some people respond in like kind without waiting to see if you are seriously going to follow through. I've seen it happen with a guy who died while threatening with a fake gun. Killing someone or dying for someone filming you is about as stupid as it can possibly get.
Hope you enjoy your life in Phuket, Richard... and don't die there from the result of some insane kind of reaction to your pride/ego being bruised and reacting like the nimrod in the video!

My first guess would be that the person who posted it doesn't want a visit from the baseball bat chump.

 

My second guess would be that the person who posted it fears being sued for defamation - yes, it could really happen.

Yes, they appear to have progressed as far as having the video removed.

Just another impatient thug type I suppose, the very fact he carries a baseball bat seems to  suggest that.

We get impatient drivers in Pattaya these days often from Bangkok. Bikes are not well regarded.
