• A British tourist made an alarming entrance at an internet cafe near his hotel in Pattaya, Thailand, Metro News reports.
First, staff at the Freelancer Hotel heard groans and banging coming from his room -- which wasn't necessarily unusual in the red-light district.
But then the 51-year-old man fell from a balcony and through the ceiling of the adjacent cafe, with just his naked legs showing to about 20 patrons below.
As onlookers called for help, they realized the nude man was covered in excrement; he was taken to a hospital to sober up and address his minor injuries.
Police checking out his hotel room found feces smeared on the floor: "We have some ideas about what he was doing in the room to make it so dirty but there was nothing illegal," officials said.
"He will have to speak with the hotel to negotiate the bill." [Metro News, 11/4/2024]
