@@charmainen2846 that's sad. he can't have a normal relationship and has to stoop to that kind of craziness. ( no shade Marco you know what I mean, ha)
Marco that was absolutely insane. Going to a secluded place with someone you just met. Thank goodness you did not end up in a ditch somewhere never to be seen again. Be smart and be safe
Stumbled upon? Mate, that controversial old paper factory was in the middle of the Kanchanaburi town and is rather touristy place nowadays lol. We just had some artsy and street market events like last month.
Haha mate he was there when I came … I literally met the moment when you first see him in the video … And he didn’t get home, he waited or the next guy 😂
Hey mate. You’re a gamer man than me but really appreciate the vlog as always. Another great view of their country. Hope you’re doing well, thanks for sharing 🍻👍
Hey Todd! Thanks for watching bro, They actually can have a normal relationship, 🏳️🌈 is fully accepted and normal part of this culture, so they don’t have to hide out to do it
@@toddbigeasy what's sad is that the man was likely asking Marco to wait for him, and Marco made it into some major thing like he was going to be offed or diddled for either lack of understanding, personal bias, or for views.
Cool video, tourist spot are never the best spots in any countries. I have been 4 times to Thailand and never been to puket or Pattaya and only once to Bangkok. My favourite part of Thailand is the eastern part and the north-eastern part.
#3 We can get a case of Kirkland water bottles for about $4. or 10 cents each. In Oregon State, you pay a 10 cents deposit on all water and pop cans. You get this back when you return the scrap to be recycled. I save all our bottles and cans, stomp them flat and take them to our Son who lives in Vancouver, Wash. which is just across the Columbia River from Oregon. Ryan will take what I bring to his friend at work, that guy will cash it in and buy snacks for the folks in their office. When we were down visiting last month, I woke up at 3am to a noise out front. It sounded like someone dumping cans into a container. I looked out the window and a guy with one of the head lights you can slip on. Ryan said folks go through the recycle bins the night before the pick up the next day looking for plastic water bottles and pop cans. Every 10 cans or bottles is $1. If you need extra money and are willing to do the work, I imagine you can make a good amount in a week. Every housing area has a different garbage pick up day.
You should check out The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957), if you're interested in learning more about the forced POW labour that built the Thai-Burma railway. Stars Sir Alec Guinness, and holds up well.
Thanks! Yeah I may even watch it tonight … but I heard it’s soft compared to what they really went through. There is a new TV series in Australia coming out about it next year too
You know I think you're great but you know in the beginning of this video you said this is what I love about Thailand is you just pointed the scooter in a direction and you find the best stuff and then you show this😮 kind of defeats what you said don't you think😮 personally I think you got so lucky. I've watched the travel horror stories where they get on the back of the bike or motorcycle or scooter and then they put a knife at your belly it doesn't give you a whole lot of options now does it. I was thinking that the whole time. I was also thinking you were going to be surrounded in any moment by a whole lots of guys with knives. It's the preferred quiet weapon of the third world. All the best my brother stay safe.
I don’t know. As someone mentioned, you were going along with him if he was after doing something. A desolate place, meeting a strange guy in a foreign country? Wouldn’t be me. Maybe he could’ve meant something else when he said hold me. don’t know. I just wouldn’t allow myself to be in that situation, but you’re making a video for $$$ so you went along with it!
Omg marco I'm so glad you got away from that dude but I gotta be honest, eating a random roadside brown egg in thailand... you're a risk taker that's for sure. 🤣 Thanks for putting yourself in these situations for us though, but please stay safe!!
I mean if you looked at it from his perspective.... you might have been leading him on ahaha! if you were up for throwing it down like he was, it wouldnt have been scary hahaha
I had one encounter in Hua Hin near Bangkok. There is a viewpoint you can visit which also is a popular spot for gay men to meet up and go about their business. I wasn't aware of that and made eye contact with a dude there, just trying to be friendly. I was alone and he followed me around, then later touched my arm and I had to tell him to f off. It was a misunderstanding.
Dude! In Thailand ? Weird af hey. Woah. I’ve been living here 2 years (from Au) & the only creep was a black French guy. Had no idea there were gay beats here lol just like stkilda ha!
Omigahhh!!… I was so scared for you! I was holding my breath! That guy gave me the heebie-jeebies… and I was yelling at my phone for you to stop following him and to just get out of there!! I’m glad you got away safely… 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Haha yeah! The video build the tension, kinda like a thriller movie 🎥🍿 All safe and sound. But honestly I was worried there was others there and they were planning something, it’s literally in the middle of nowhere!
@ … it was truly like a thriller movie for sure!… especially when you decided to leave and then saw that there was a CAR there. I was thinking-yikes! He has a posse there, and was planning to do who knows what to you!! Thank God you got out of there safely… 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️
Fk! Bit scary man. Luckily you got out. Another story to regale to your grandkids in your dotage! I think they keep red Fanta prices low as apparently it's Buddha's favourite, or at least the pi's (ghosts) they try and keep out of buildings here. Check out the little temples in front of any building, all littered with red Fanta offerings!
Hahaha! Remember that first time we went and the tuktuk went off course to some dodgy backstreets and ended up in the back alley of a hospital and we thought we were gonna get our organs harvested 😂
wow, that's creepy!!! be careful my friend... I wonder if he would have harmed you or just trying to come on to you? it also seems strange he was out there by himself? what the context were any other people anywhere around? interesting story..for real.
Must be a gay meetup spot bro. Haha. I’m sure you weren’t gonna get robbed but just a classic wrong place at the wrong time. 😮 I would’ve turned around immediately. You are brave man for continuing on. My god. Great content bro!
Wow, what a weird experience. You’re lucky you’re such a big, tall man or else things could’ve gone badly. Your size probably kept him from really trying something. Then a car pulls up out of no where! So sketch. Be safe ❤
Yeah terrible … I stopped drinking all that free / cheap alcohol years ago. In Phuket in 2014 I got poisoned and it did some damage to my brain (maybe why I am like I am today) but it was horrible, ever since then I stay away from free shots and buckets and super cheap cocktails … so many dodgy places around Asia that do this. It needs to be regulated!!
That was fkd up brother always trust ur gut instincts aye , and what was the deal when u took off the white car comes out from behind u , they were definitely setting u up to either Roll u , or bang u or something more sinister stay safe bro
Yeah man for sure!! My gut is usually always right, I knew something was off and I think I got out of there at the right moment before I knew! Who knows what the white car was there for …
Legit! Out of all the places I’ve been to and all the situation I’ve been in, for whatever reason, this one literally had me on edge! I had no idea what his intentions were or who else was there! 😱😅
True adventure
That was wild lol
He maybe wanted some boom boom for money jikes..you went to the boom boom area LOL
You should buy the castle and renovate it
@@charmainen2846 that's sad. he can't have a normal relationship and has to stoop to that kind of craziness. ( no shade Marco you know what I mean, ha)

Whew, you were giving me goosebumps when you were feeling eerie and still going with the man. I’m so glad you’re safe, man! Safe travels!! ❤
Markos unwittingly signing up to Thailands gay scene hahaha
and what was that white car upto that appeared right when you left
I noticed too... I think it was good Marco trusted his gut feeling.
Hahahaha 🥲
Tim K
Holy crap, that guy made me skin crawl... Dude was a creep... Stay safe out there! I loved the content.
Stumbled upon?
Mate, that controversial old paper factory was in the middle of the Kanchanaburi town and is rather touristy place nowadays lol.
We just had some artsy and street market events like last month.
I think it’s awesome, I saw online they want to make it in to a museum with restaurants and stuff
Hahaha little fella wanted a piece of Marco!
🥲🥲🥲
Hang on. Did you leave the guy stranded at the abandoned building? How did he get home???
Haha mate he was there when I came … I literally met the moment when you first see him in the video …
And he didn’t get home, he waited or the next guy 😂
Glad you're okay mate, scary situation to be in.
Scary weird and awkward 😬
the architecture of those palaces/houses is awesome! I would like to see footage or photos of how it was in their heyday! have you seen it?
Exactly my thought
Sometimes man … some of the hotels have old photos of the areas, really interesting
Man that was a good video! Pretty sketchy! Had me watching so close hoping you'd be ok👌 Awesome vlogs every time bro
Appreciate it!! Haha yeah it’s like a little thriller vlog … especially when I couldn’t find my keys 🔑 😂
"Hold Me".....😅🤣😂Good thing you're 6'2" twice his size! Thanks for the lol's!
Glad you enjoyed! 😂
Very daring adventure. Would you call this one of your closest calls? Glad you shared!
I’d say so!! I had no idea what they were planning so wanted to get outta there asap!
“Come on” Marco says the tour guide guy for real tho😂
Lets goooooooo!!!!
Oh hell no! Marco almost got Diddy'd 😂😂
😂😂😂
Always looking forward to your videos....much love from The Netherlands (from a South African)
Awesome! Thank you! I love having you watch 😎🙌🏽
Scary! I thought he was setting you up to be jumped and/or robbed You got lucky! Stay safe out there Brother! 🤘😎
I know! Something like that … 😧
Hey mate. You’re a gamer man than me but really appreciate the vlog as always. Another great view of their country. Hope you’re doing well, thanks for sharing 🍻👍
Thanks man ✌🏼😎
Great video Marco
Glad you enjoyed it 💪🏼
#2 you need to be more careful, the viewers do not want to lose their best Free Entertainment on UA-cam.
PRETTY BOY WAS SIZING U UP😩 FROM THE WORD GO😱
🤣🤣🤣
Technically you touched him first on the shoulder after he said you were tall. You led him on😮 @2:30
I think eating a roadside egg that's been sitting there is more riskier than going raw dog with your new mate 🤣
Risky AF! But pretty funny regardless 😂
Hi Marco, Todd from Memphis Tennessee, USA! it's sad to me that guy can't have a normal relationship but has to be so underground and sad about it.
Hey Todd! Thanks for watching bro,
They actually can have a normal relationship, 🏳️🌈 is fully accepted and normal part of this culture, so they don’t have to hide out to do it

@marcoroams so there's more to this guys intensions
wild wild wild ahaha stay safe out there marco
Bro probably thought youre leading him to film corn lmao. Stay safe Marco.
Haha I know right …. So bloody awkward 😬
Please hold me can also be translated to please wait for me.
This is horrible.
“Wait for me” daaamn!
@marcoroams yes. But you turned the whole debacle into him trying to do things to you. That's messed up.
@@stacefacemarieclick bait!
Jeez Marco, you gotta be extra cautious out there in your condition. Even your ankle ain't fully healed yet. I am glad you are okay
Yeah exactly!! No way I could run away yet
It’s amazing what you can pickup at the shopping mall nowadays
Hahaha! Aussie meat products 🥩
Looks like you have secret admirers all across the world Marco 😅
I scared 😱
I like how across several videos you have misinterpreted "sip" baht (which means 10 in thai), as "six" baht. 😂
Hahaha wow! Okay thank you … now I know ✌🏼
Thanks Marco
Even scary for men! 😮 stay safe mate 🇬🇧
Thank you 🙏🏽
@ you are gorgeous tho ☺️

Always good to be vigilant when travelling overseas for even Australia will have dodgy people back home.
That was creepy though...
Of course mate, thank you 🙏🏽
Yep! Creeepy as
They probably thought it was rude of you to not accept their free hospitality 🤣
I was just trying to be kind 🥲
Diddys Old Smoke shack. YABARS No joke out there near Burma. Wow
please hold me ahahahaha hell nah im scared
Bro!! Scariest moment of my life!! Ahahaha …
Marco, as an Aussie who has lived in Thailand I think you've misread this situation. Also google translate sucks for Thai. Use quilbot.
Thanks!
What’s your interpretation of the situation?
damn brother!!! ahaha wtf was that guy doing there!!! ahaha
Haha! Man… I think he wanted some Australian all beef sausage 🇦🇺

husband speaking I wonder Who put up the funding for the mall. There was no way whey recovered a fraction of their investment.
I know right! Sad state of many malls in Asia … found them in Malaysia too
Talk about the great escape, well done mate ! Bum intact

Yeah totally hey! Not sure what they were planning but I felt like 🥩🙀🤣
That was dodgy mate😮 that car behind you was probably his mates.
Yep that white car was dodgy aswell coming out.
Super dodgy! The entire situation
Was actually on edge watching you try to get out of that abandoned mall.
It’s like a thriller movie right? 🙀
You should speak some words in Thai since you ve been there!
Thank you!
I know! I really wish … it’s a tricky language but I just know the real basics
reptile eyes!!!!
🐍
Bloody hell! Had my heart going then, scary AF 😱 That white car behind you too! Take care dude.
He was trying to clap them cheeks. That was sketchy.
😂😂😂
Cool video but shame about the creepy guy. That white car as you were leaving the castle mall was wild too. Left just in time
I know! I didn’t even see it until I watched the video back when I was editing 🙀
that white toyota corrolla was behind you ahahaha
2 girls poisoned by methanol. Please make a comment
Not in Thailand mate

Pretty close to making into their twitter for sure. Stay safe, even men can be in danger when alone.
What and who was in the white car behind you when you was escapeing the bum boy😂

That was very creepy
Lmao this guy was really trying to molest you
Haha yeah …. Awkward AF!!
Guy complementing me on my looks showed me some used rubbers now I’m on the back of his bike
😂 It was actually my bike … also as I said. Was still giving him the benefit of the doubt at that stage
