Okay, okay: it was Laos, not Thailand. So sue me. Do you have any idea how long I've waited to work Phuket into a post on one of these boards??

'Murder hornet' swarm kills father and son ziplining, pair stung more than 100 times

An American father and son died after being stung by a swarm of hornets while ziplining in Southeast Asia, local officials confirmed.

Daniel Owen, 47, originally from Idaho Falls, Idaho, and his son Cooper, 15, died following the attack last month at Green Jungle Park in Laos, just northeast of Thailand.

Phanomsay Phakan, director of the Phakan Arocavet Clinic, where both victims were taken to be treated, confirmed the incident took place on Wednesday, Oct. 15.

The pair were apparently stung by hundreds of Asian giant hornets as they descended from a tree with a ziplining guide at the adventure resort, U.K. newspaper The Times reported.

Owen and his son were apparently on vacation in the country when they died after being stung more than 100 times, the outlet reported.

A U.S. Department of State spokesperson confirmed two U.S. citizens died in Luang Prabang in northern Laos, People reported, adding, "Out of respect for the privacy of the family and loved ones during this difficult time, we have no further comment."

Stupidhead

Phuket town isn't great and the beaches are meh. Highly recommend the Phi Phi islands though....definitely will go back to those and other islands off the coast of southern Thailand.

probably just another real jerk in life

True story; one couple I know was approached by a lady boy. "I've got something for both of you.." *

They do tell a great story about the bar with a woman who could bounce a ping-pong ball into a glass of beer from about ten feet away.

Yeah, she didn't throw it.

Promise me you'll never go ziplining in Laos! They just don't have the regulations!*

Guns. Have them.

The welfare of humanity is always the alibi of tyrants.

Socialism is the gospel of envy.

"Where ya going on vacation Eddie?" "Well Tom, I've always dreamed of ziplining in SE Asia..." *
