Naked British tourist falls from balcony in Thailand covered in poo

A naked British tourist had to be rescued after falling from a hotel balcony while covered in poo in Thailand’s ‘Sin City’.

The man was said to be ‘extremely drunk’ when he returned to his room in Pattaya’s red light district in the early hours of this morning.

Groans and banging was later heard coming from the 51-year-old’s room at The Freelancer Hotel but staff thought nothing of it.

It was only when his legs crashed through the ceiling of an adjacent internet café after he plunged from the balcony that they realised something was amiss.

Shocked gamers called police as the naked holidaymaker, believed to be from Blackburn cried for help with his legs dangling from the floorboards.

Subsequent pictures showed him being guided to an ambulance while covered up in a blanket.

He was taken to hospital with minor injuries and to sober up, police said.

Officers later checked his room, where they discovered excrement smeared across the floor.

Police lieutenant Thanawee Yarangsee said: ‘We have some ideas about what he was doing in the room to make it so dirty but there was nothing illegal.

‘It is his private life, so he will have to speak with the hotel to negotiate the bill.’

Somrak Senso, 28, witnessed the incident and said the café was full with about 20 people at the time.

He said: ‘I was sitting playing games downstairs. I heard the first thump. I didn’t think much of it. After a while, there was another thump.

‘The ceiling started to break more. There were legs coming down, right on my head. So I called the staff to come and look.

‘After a while, it seemed like the ceiling started to sink.

‘I was very shocked. So I ran up to look. I smelled it, but I thought it was a broken water pipe or something.’
