September 8, 20251 yr Looks as if the PFC is back. https://pattayamail.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0bce3e0515d0797a73c960211&id=3847c727cb&e=f4eaf70b70
September 8, 20251 yr Presuming that the makeshift tent in the photo covers the body in the car park where the unfortunate landed, I wonder why there was a crash above, and why the crash above made the hotel go to the car park rather than to where the sound came from......... Quote According to a hotel staff witness, a loud crash was heard from above, prompting an immediate check of the area where Mr. Jones was found.
September 9, 20251 yr It also appears he was not only alone at the time he made the jump, he had been alone in his room all day. It also states "luxury" hotel. That would indicate he could have had a certain degree of wealth, either that or he blew his savings before ending everything. As far as the sound from above is concerned I would not count on the Pattaya Mail's reporting being accurate. Presumably it was an eye witness statement when the poor man's landing might have sounded as though it had come from above. The attached article from another news outlet says nothing about sound from above - merely "a loud noise from meters away". It also ooints out a Chinese fell to his death just last Sunday. Why the British man fell can only be a matter of speciulation. Boy friend problems? Girl friend problems? Health issues? Acute depression for another reason? Probaby we'll never know. It makes me wonder, though. What facilities exist in Pattaya for foreigners to consult suicide hotlines (if any) or psychiatrists about issues with which they are struggling mentally? https://www.thaiexaminer.com/thai-news-foreigners/2025/09/08/uk-man-the-latest-foreign-tourist-to-die-in-high-rise-balcony-fall-in-nong-prue-pattaya-last-saturday/
