Picture of the day [May 19]

[Mrs_Mia_Wallace]

To entertain tourists, Kantima Pinchai does almost everything. During a performance on the Sriracha Tiger Farm in Chonburi (East of Bangkok, Thailand) she's putting herself into a dangerous situation. But even the full body risk isn't very useful nowadays: Thailand's tourism industry is in a very bad crisis right now. Because of SARS, the number of visitors in April and the first two weeks of May was just half as much as it used to be all the years before.

I don't think that's very cool.
and she's so beautiful too.
I don't know.
taking someone like that and seeing them but their head in a crocs mouth would just drive me worry-some
such things certainly wouldn't make me go to Thailand.
Yeah, the things people will make other people do just for the tourism industry.
Don't get me wrong, I understand why the tourism industry is important. It's just the picture isn't working. or such things wouldn't work for me.
I just keep feeling like I should go save her or something.

me and my thoughts...

[cyana]

there's a movie clip somewhere on the web that shows what happens when croccie is not in the tourist attraction mood ...

[Joel]

wow! It's like in Seaworld
Cool....

[Shenlong]

Seaworld is dominated by mammals and fish...Not reptiles...

[Mrs_Mia_Wallace]

Well, I agree with you Knight (or should I rather call you Euphoria?)...it wouldn't make ME go either, because when I sat in the audience I'd always think that this pretty girl was risking her life (and she doesn't look very happy while doing it either) just because I paid for it *swallows* not a very pleasant feeling
I sure hope that the SARS epidemic will be over soon, not only for the tourist business of course, but for all the people!

Most people don't usually show an expression even though they truly enjoy their occupation...Just because I have to deal with some annoying kids at my job doesn't mean I don't like working with something I enjoy...

[GarbagePoe]

Ooooooooooooh...........

That's a very brave girl.

[Avion]

Please Thailand girl, don't do it.
I love you! just don't do it.

was she looking at me?

....I am soooo way off topic.
please forgive me almighty Mia
Mia that is all shexy and other shex things....oh wait I'm still off topic...

...I already posted here, didn't I?....
ok, I'm gonna leave now.

but yeah, I don't like what's going on in the picture. no, sure don't

[xzit]

Best wishes to that Kantima girl... I wonder what the life expectancy is for someone in an occupation such as that. Haha. I would imagine very short!

[RavenWolf]
