Dad blows his brains out playing Russian Roulette in front of sonA Thai father has shot himself in the head whilst playing Russian Roulette in front of his nineteen-year-old son in Nakorn Si Thammarat.
He placed the gun at his left temple and pulled the trigger. The bullet passed through his brain.
The man had also previously tried to hang himself according to a report by The Daily News.
Forty-four year old Santi Pakdeesuwan, his son told investigating officers, ran out of his house holding a .38 revolver. He emptied the bullets before putting just one back in and spinning the chamber.
He then placed the gun at his left temple and pulled the trigger. The bullet passed through his brain.
Thung Song police officers raced to the scene, in Kuan Krot, a district of Nakorn Sri Thammarat, with a medical team to find the victim laying dead from a single gunshot wound.
The bullet had exited his right-hand temple.
Sanit was rubber farmer whom, officers were told, suffered personal problems and had been diagnosed with stress.
In the past he had attempted to hang himself although, on that occasion, was prevented from taking his life.
This time, it seems, he has succeeded.
