Thai epidemic of "window-falling" continues...

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

1. Move to Thailand
2. Rent room in a condo
3. Spend all your money on drugs, booze and hookers (and combination thereof)
4. Borrow money from a nice Russian gentleman to pay for more drugs, booze, and hookers
5. Accidentally forget to pay nice Russian gentleman back
6. "Fall out of a window"
So your theory is they are all Russian?
Thais don't do defenestration when you fuck them over. They're an artistic people and prefer to do the work themselves with knives, swords and machetes, etc. Russians are more pragmatic, they need visas, so it has to look like an "accident".
LOL
Defenestration is the act of throwing someone or something out of a window.[1] The term was coined around the time of an incident in Prague Castle in the year 1618, which became the spark that started the Thirty years war. This was done in "good Bohemian style" and referred to the defenestration which had occurred in the same city's City Hall almost 200 years earlier (July 1419), which also at that occasion led to war, the Hussite war.[2] The word comes from the New Latin [3]de- (out of or away from) and fenestra (window or opening).[4] Likewise, it can also refer to the condition of being thrown out of a window, as in "The Defenestration of Ermintrude Inch".[5]

While the act of defenestration connotes the forcible or peremptory removal of an adversary, and the term is sometimes used in just that sense,[6] it also suggests breaking the windows in the process (de- also means removal). Although defenestrations can be fatal depending on the height of the window through which a person is thrown or throws oneself or due to lacerations from broken glass, the act of defenestration need not carry the intent of, or result in, death.
Sodo they open the window before they throw them out, or do they like the sound of breaking glass too much?

Yeah, it was about the mid 1980's that you started hearing about them. I'm not convinced yet though. Someone will have to post an early story that convinces me, preferably one that doesn't involve a Thai wife that inherits everything on the event of her hubby's death.
