Thread: German Tourist Survives Fall from Pattaya Hotel After Alleged Cannabis-Induced Parano

A German tourist fell from a hotel in Pattaya after allegedly using cannabis and becoming paranoid.


At 2:40 AM on August 14th, 2024, Pattaya police received a report of a foreign tourist falling from a luxury hotel, located on Soi 4, Pattaya Second Road, Nongprue sub-district, Banglamung district, Chonburi province. Police, The Pattaya News, and rescue volunteers immediately responded to the scene.


Upon arrival, authorities found the foreign tourist, identified as 21-year-old German national Mr. Manuel Marc Norbert Bukow, lying in pain. Rescue workers provided initial first aid before transporting him to a hospital for urgent medical attention.

According to Mr. Panya Suelek, 36, a hotel security guard who witnessed the incident, he heard loud noises and went to check. He then saw Mr. Bukow sitting on the awning at the back of the hotel and tried to call him. The tourist, who appeared agitated and frightened, got up and ran along the awning, which eventually broke, causing him to fall and get injured. The security guard then called for rescue services.


According to a Pattaya police report, Mr. Bukow had just arrived in Pattaya and checked into the hotel for the first time. After allegedly purchasing and using cannabis, he experienced paranoia and went to sit on the awning. The tourist might have been startled when the security guard approached him, surmised the police, prompting him to flee along the awning, leading to his fall.

Police are waiting for the injured tourist to recover from his injuries before conducting further questioning and addressing the financial damages caused to the hotel.

Yeah, it was probably the other stuff he took, but why ruin a good story?

Strong weed can fuck you up like that, especially if you are a novice. It ain’t all the Big Lebowski.

Don't be so fucking silly.

They just don't know about the shrooms.

Thai weed is different. The first time I tried it, I experienced argoraphobia, which I had never experienced before. And I smoked an absolute shitload of Aussie weed of different varieties in the years before that.

and you are not hunter s. thompson.

you may have sold caffeine tablets and parsley masquerading as pot to impressionable 6th formers at festivals in the '60s, but an expert on drugs you are not.

Tax, most psychotropic drugs affect the brain in similar ways particularly the function of the hippocampus. Blowing strong weed, acid or any version thereof can fuck vulnerable folk up in sorting out responses leading to panic/anxiety attacks.

Don't be a silly cvunt all your life.

Done a lot of acid, hash, weed and speed in my time, I’ll have you know and I know of what I speak. Luckily, there were no lasting adverse effects.

Now, please do excuse me, I’m waiting for the next phung to take me to see my oracle, Finbarr Zog.

So fuck off.
