thailand49 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Not wanting to pile on or beat a dead horse? but this is classic that one can be physical as a man certainly in this case he did that and more but never learned what is most important in life is developing his brain to make better decision and not allow the ego to get the better of a person. All pump up wanting the world to see how cool he was not only was he not wearing a helmet but the speed at which he was traveling now he is paying the price. There is a saying in driving " if you put yourself in a position for something to happen most likely it will " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samsensam Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 not sure why the 'super fit' description was applied in the heading, it clearly has no relevance to the story. 'non helmet wearing' would be to the point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bander Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Another foreigner who think he is immortal, doesn't matter how many warnings they get from friends or others, they have to learn the hard way. If he survives at least he can forget about being "super fit" for a long time, worst case scenario wheelchair for life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madisongy Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 It's really unfortunate that this guy couldn't be more like so many of the commentators here who have never made a completely stupid mistake. With regard to the gofundme, I'd never contribute to anything unless I have first hand knowledge of the legitimacy of the cause to which I am contributing.

Anyone using GoFundMe to pay bills should not be selling financial advice I don't think your aware of what this will cost. I think it's fair to to say most of us are surprised we are still alive given the risky behavior of our youth. What's the difference? He got unlucky and that's it, just unlucky but continues to get smashed by by the keyboard warriors. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madrona114 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 I feel sorry for anybody who have such kind of serious accident but i find very strange a supposedly rich person, successuful, is setting up a gofundme page. (beeing able to afford two big bikes cash but not beeing able to pay your hospital bill... come on..) Also, you don't need a lot of investigations to see this guy is doing some dodgy business... all year long holidays, a lot of self promotion on social media. Some forumers pointed lack of legal registrations about his financial websites. With little more digging i would not be surprised to read some scams stories and fraud. It seems he like fast motobike as he like fast money and fast life. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And ride a powerful bike, very fast, without helmet is far from beeing smart. On the top of it, we was warned by his insurrance about not beeing covered. Accidents that lead to dramatic situations are mostly the sum of many mistakes. He made them all. Driving recklessy is dangerous for himself but also others. Would you be as tolerant if he had killed a kid or an eldery ? Edited August 1, 2020 by madrona114 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torturedsole Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Good lesson. Had this guy been wearing a helmet he would have endured nothing more than a few broken ribs and bruised legs.

He's still stupid and irresponsible to fly around on a motorbike without a helmet, especially in Thailand. He looks like another invincible hardman farang and that's why there's so many negative comments, we've seen so many of them come and go over the years, I won't be donating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Monday Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Helmet for sure but how many here ALWAYS don full touring leathers, boots, gloves and back protection before popping down to Watson's for a few items? I should expect to see some compassion here for a man laid up in horrible physical disarray There could be something positive come out of this despite his previous choices maybe he is alive so he can turn it around and perhaps do some good for the community. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
