    Boxer Falls to His Death From Chiang Mai Hotel Balcony

    A boxer from Yemen has died after falling to his death from his Chiang Mai hotel room.


    On Friday 28th August, police from Chang Phueak Police Station was informed about a man falling from a hotel located on Chang Phueak Road in Sriphum subdistrict.


    Police found the body of Ahmed al-Aidros, 23, a Yemeni national, with multiple injuries caused by the fall.


    Officers questioned his Thai girlfriend in their 5th-floor hotel room. She reportedly told police that the deceased was a boxer who had been living in Thailand for over two years and had participated in various boxing tournaments throughout Thailand.


    “Two days ago, he picked me up from Phuket to go on a trip to Chiang Mai. Last night we talked about him being unable to find a boxing job due to COVID-19 before I went to bed, as we were planning to travel to Phrae the next day.”


    “Then I saw him walking out to the balcony, probably to smoke a cigarette, I thought, but he never returned until I got up to check and saw that he had already jumped out.”


    Police speculated that the deceased might have decided to commit suicide due to the stress of being out of a job for some time.


    The deceased’s body was sent to Maharaj Nakhon Chiang Mai Hospital for a detailed autopsy to determine the cause of death.


    Police have also informed the consulate office of Yemen in Bangkok to contact the deceased’s relatives.

    Could be Thai balconies-for-midgets syndrome.

    I saw on facetube there are people in Detroit that want to know if they can come and skip quarantine for the funeral.

    If he's a muslim he should have been in the ground by sundown.

    Why hasn't the building industry decided to raise the railing height or make some sort of decorated railing above the main rail so that a light push wouldn't send someone over ? Probably suicide this time but man..

    Never heard that?
    When a joke is repeated twice, it becomes less funny. But if it is repeated more than that, it becomes a running gag.


    (but never mind, if you cannot say anything more funny, enjoy that every day, if it encourage you in your gray low life...)

    stupid boxer probably took too many to the head leaving him with poor muscular co-ordination and vertigo.

    stepped out on to the dark balcony for a cigarette, disorientated because of the height, dizzy, and over he went. sucking hard on a krong thip or one of those arab cigarettes would have caused a transient hypoxia too which would have exacerbated his dizziness and loss of balance.

    .... add to that a push from the bint and the poor chap had no chance.

    Doesn't sound like something someone suicidal would do.

    Police questioned his Thai girlfriend on the fifth floor of the hotel.

    She reportedly told police that the deceased was a boxer who had been living in Thailand for over two years and had participated in various boxing tournaments throughout Thailand.

    “Two days ago, he picked me up from Phuket to go on a trip to Chiang Mai,” she said.

    “Last night we talked about him being unable to find a boxing job due to Covid-19 before I went to bed, as we were planning to travel to Phrae the next day. Then I saw him walking out to the balcony, probably to smoke a cigarette, I thought, but he never returned until I got up to check and saw that he had already jumped out.”

    Possibly. Which is why these things should be redesigned. Especially in low income areas. It's a miracle people aren't taking flight every day

    How about he simply fell over one of those stupidly low balconies?

    Suicides usually leave notes or at least state their intentions.

    Why fly to Phuket to pick up a bird, fly to CM and then top yourself?

    Makes no sense.
