Foreigner in Thailand learns lesson after cultural disrespect (video)
An unruly foreign man in Thailand faced severe consequences after disrespecting Thai culture and assaulting a woman in a bar. The incident, captured in a TikTok video by user @bagpaope, showed the unamed man mocking Thai boxing and provoking a bar security guard, on Soi 6 in Pattaya, ending in a physical altercation.
The footage yesterday, April 15, depicted the foreign man imitating Muay Thai moves and behaving provocatively, with a security guard maintaining composure while a woman attempted to intervene.
Despite the guard’s calm demeanour, the situation escalated as the foreign man, backed by friends, continued his taunts. This led the guard to reach his breaking point, removing his shirt before delivering a punch that knocked the man to the ground.
Following the initial confrontation, several people engaged in what appeared to be a group assault, leaving the foreigner with little chance to retaliate. In a separate video shared by X user @cnew888, the incident’s conclusion was highlighted, showing the man being punched and then overwhelmed by a crowd.
The accompanying comment mentioned, “Foreigner assaulted a woman in the bar, then acted tough outside, challenging anyone. Received a near-knockout punch. Then a group assault ensued, involving all ages, showcasing the full array of Muay Thai techniques.”
These clips serve as a stern reminder of the importance of respecting cultural norms and the potential repercussions of failing to do so. The videos can be viewed on the respective social media platforms, reported KhaoSod.
