In a TikTok clip that looks like a sequel to the movie Castaway, a group of Thai tourists on a fishing trip found a foreigner floating on a makeshift wooden raft in the middle of the sea off the coast of Koh Kood in Trat province, southern Thailand, yesterday.

The woman who filmed the clip chartered a boat to go out fishing for squid when she and her friends spotted a wooden raft floating in the middle of the sea. As she got closer, she noticed luggage on the raft, and then she spotted a man. The TikToker wrote a message, “Where are you going to float?”

Balanced on the raft with his belongings, the floating farang didn’t appear to be in any trouble or danger. In fact, he looked extremely relaxed. The foreign man allegedly made the raft himself from palm trees.

The Thai boat operators were concerned for the farang’s safety as they said a storm was coming and if he didn’t make it back to shore, he possibly wouldn’t survive.

Then, another boat with marines on board arrives and pulls the raft back to shore, along with the foreigner and his luggage, as seen in the clip…

Bizarre moment British tourist clinging to a buoy two miles off the Thai coast flags down a boat after 'going for a morning swim'

This is the bizarre moment a British tourist who was clinging to a buoy two miles of the Thai coast flagged down a boat after he thought it would be a 'good idea' to go for a morning swim.

Video shows the apparently intoxicated holidaymaker standing on the yellow float in his swimming shorts near the party city of Pattaya at around 7am on March 29.

The Briton is seen smiling and did not seem to be in distress as he raised his thumb and waved at the passing boat in an effort to catch a ride.

The tourist, who did not give is name, wobbled slightly as he launched himself off the buoy to swim to the boat.

Video shows him clambering onto the boat and staggering on the deck while trying to catch his breath.
