    I have heard of this being done a few times before, so not origional, but it is always fatal.
    I wonder what it would do if you rolled the window up on the rope,
    Maybe we can get mrs.Sq or KW to give it a shot, would be no loss to the boards.

    I guess Thai police would be looking for the cause and thinking of staging a reenactment any volunteers to assist with that?

    Taxi drivers in Britain are having a very hard time at the moment, I know because I'm one of them. There was one firm I worked for where it was rumoured there were 4 suicide attempts over a 3 month period, it was unconfirmed by the employer obviously.

    Cheers

    I have heard it said that when you cut a taxi drivers head off he will sometimes go on driving round looking for a fair for as long as 3 minutes although I have never seen it myself.

    Were his hands tied? Auto erotic asphyxiation you think? Being well into it just as he was about to let go, his foot slipped off the brake maybe? Ooooppss!!

    One of the taxi firms I worked for a driver died of a hert attack whilst working on a thursday afternoon. The company charged his Mrs for him being on the system until the following Monday morning (which is the normal rental term) and then charged her again for taking his radio equipment out of the car.

    cheers
