Why do so many people "jump" in Thailand ?

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.

6 June 2017
A 67 year old British man has committed suicide after ordering a final drink from the bar of a Sukhumvit hotel restaurant before jumping from the balcony last night.

The shocking part was the coolness he showed, not attracting any attention to himself what so ever. He causally walked to the balcony, set up a chair, climbed up and jumped, before anyone had time to react.

Witnesses said Mr B. had casually ordered a drink at the restaurant on the seventh floor of the hotel in Klong Toei Nua, Wattana district.
Then he had quietly gone round the corner out of sight and put his chair by the railing...

I'm going to be really disappointed if I find out they weren't playing smooth jazz...I wonder what the last drink was?

Descended with a delusion of jilted love. The craze of base jumping without the parachute. Splat.
Always "hope" but never "expect".
