Depends on your definition of successThey succeeded in merging a hatchet with a power cable, and in depriving thousands of people of power for 10 days. They didn't succeed in stealing the copper though, and I seriously doubt they succeeded in escaping with their life.
Well from what I'd heard, they didn't actually cut the cable. The axe became part of the cable buried halfway in, but the cable held up just finebut it caused damage to many other areas of the power station, and caused a fire which didn't exactly help the problems.
So all round, I think they failed![]()
Someone recently tried that in my area and we suffered a 10-day power outage. Their methods were a little more inept though, they tried to put an axe through a 132kV cable...![]()
I have no problem with morons frying themselves by trying to cut through a high voltage cable, so long as it doesn't ruin the contents of my freezer and make me die of boredom over the next 10 days. I missed e-mails and phonecalls about a job interview thanks to that as well![]()
A really sad one. A roofer discovered a wire on the roof after a rain storm. He tried to use a pole from a roofing mop in an attempt to pick it up and toss it away from the roof. Meanwhile others said it was a bad idea. But, he was the expert and with both hands on the stick he put it under a raised section. When his muscles in his arms contracted it pumped the wire upward the wire goes upward and back landing across both arms. Resulting in severing both limbs at the forearm.
They also steal the sewer lids (to sell the metalic rings)
Nowadays it's not so funny anymore. It might end deadly being infected with HIV, which has double speed in tropic countries.
Tim, an Englishman, got married to one of the Pattaya service girls. She died of HIV after six months, and he followed her eight months later.
The embassies of all over the world have a lot of work to do taking care to get the corpses back to their home countries, some of them not having died of HIV, but of the stress being with a service girl. (What a beautiful way to say "good bye" to the world.)
BTW. Thai girls are the most boring ones I've experienced concerning "living as a couple". They are more or less puritans.
I think, Pattaya, Phuket and all the touristic islands in the Gulf of Thailand are nothing but disgusting. If one "service girl" dies because of HIV there are ten more to follow.
There are some exceptional girls who have a "farang" friend to take care of their monetary needs, e.g. a Japanese who pays for air conditioner repair twice a month, visiting his "girl" once a year for two weeks. She normally spends the other 50 weeks in Pattaya.

FYI, Do not assume that since I said I had fun that I messed around with the bar girls. We were forewarned of the HIV outbreak, so I never did have relations with the local girls aside from nice conversations and buying a few drinks.
I had fun when I went to Bangkok and took several tours. It was really nice to look at the wonderful architecture and see some of the Thai culture. I also purchased many fine jewelry there. For me, it was a fun experience to see how other cultures live.
Singapore was a different story.![]()
