"The management team of The Club, a popular nightclub on Khaosan Road has issued a statement apologizing for the incident, and has promised to compensate the victim fully."......How? By giving him another bottle or mineral water free?

Was this a bondage club? Why would you allow yourself to be handcuffed by a bouncer?

Why is a bouncer carrying handcuffs to begin with? He's not law enforcement nor legally allowed to arrest anyone. Let's hope this nutjob doesn't get hired by another club.

Also- why does Thaiger never include links to videos when discussing them? seems to be a trend.

"They also announced that they were accelerating the training of the remaining staff, to improve the quality of service"

Nothing but talk to try and mitigate the possible damage to their income. So called security in Thailand is completely unregulated and there is no standard of training. It therefore attracts thugs.

Just make sure that the particular club is completely boycotted by tourists and let it be a lesson for the rest. Of course tourists don't care. Because all they want is just temporary enjoyment.

It may be that the tourist is a complete idiot, very many are in bars.  In that case he may have deserved a good slap.  Not condoning this behavior of course, but let's not so quickly say that the  U Tuber (so by definition a suspicious character) is a model of probity, sanity, sobriety and socially acceptable manners.  The chances are, that he is not.

The report said that the tourist thought the water was free - why would it be so difficult to simply inform him that it is not free and that he has to pay for it - very simple. If the guy then refuses to pay for it, he needs to be reported to the police for theft - a security guard should have no right to detain anyone - or at least that is true in most western countries, but I am not sure what the regulations are here.

Chances are 100% that he deserved a slap. But here we have another farang pity thread. And the security guard lost his job. The club manager is a beta cuck
