A well-known Captain Jack Sparrow Impersonator, who would entertain crowds with his magic tricks, died in a late-night road crash in East Pattaya on Sunday Night.



Khun Jirasak aged 44 has been seen around Pattaya dressed as the fictional character Captain Jack Sparrow from the Pirates of the Caribbean series of films but on Sunday Night he lost his life following a head-on collision between his bike and a bike driven by Khun Tanaporn aged 40, a motorbike taxi driver, who is currently in a coma in Hospital.

Khun Kwanorn aged 42 is a convenience store owner in Soi Tungklom Tanmun, where the crash occurred. She saw the victim, minutes before the fatal crash as he stopped at the store to purchase cigarettes. She described him as being intoxicated.

He was seen to drive off at a high rate of speed and seconds later the store owner heard a noise which she later found out was the sound of the fatal crash. CCTV in the area confirmed Khun Jirasak was driving at a high rate of speed and appeared to cross over to the opposing lane which is thought to be the main cause of the crash.
