Old Croc Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Sad, hope she recovers, but why is this in the Phuket forum? You could also ask why the story about a ban on rock climbing on Phi Phi is on the Phuket forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gk10002000 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 suspicious but a good post mortem exam may shed some light. 27 year olds do suffer panic attacks, heart attacks etc. No mention of drugs or drinking in the article. The article said the water was 1-2 m deep! Outside chance of a venomous bite from a jellyfish or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
