A British tourist was rescued in Thailand after falling from a hotel balcony while reportedly drunk and covered in feces.
The 51-year-old was staying at a hotel in a popular red-light district of a coastal town.
The Briton, who arrived in the country on September 23, was said to be ‘extremely drunk’ when he returned to his room at The Freelancer Hotel in the early hours of Monday morning, November 4.
Staff said they heard moaning and banging in the room but thought nothing of it – until the man’s legs tore through the ceiling of an adjacent internet cafe.
The cafe, packed with late-night gamers, was thrown into chaos when the naked holidaymaker screamed for help with his legs dangling through the floorboards, prompting police to be called.

Paramedics said they found the tourist dazed and covered in feces while half-stuck in the ceiling.
Police confirmed the man suffered only minor injuries when emergency services freed him from the wooden ceiling planks.
Officers covered him with a blanket before escorting him to the ambulance, where he was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment and observation.
Staff and officers were stunned when they inspected the Brit’s room, where they discovered a “stomach-wrenching stench” and feces smeared across the floor.
Despite a thorough search of the room and balcony, which was located directly above the roof of the cafe, officers confirmed they had found ‘nothing illegal’.
Lieutenant Thanawee Yarangsee, who responded to the incident, said: “The tourist suffered minor injuries but he will be released from hospital to have time to rest and sober up.
“We have some ideas about what he did in the room to make it so dirty, but there was nothing illegal.
“It’s his private life, so he’ll have to talk to the hotel to negotiate the bill.”

Terrified gamers in the cafe had to leave the building because it ‘smelled so bad’.
Somrak Senso, 28, who was gaming in the cafe when the incident occurred, said: “At that time the shop was full of people, more than 20 people. I was sitting downstairs playing games.
‘After a while I heard the first thud. I didn’t think much about it. After a while there was another blow.
‘The ceiling started to break more and more. Legs came down, right on my head. That’s why I called the staff to come and have a look.’
Senso added that the ceiling “began to sink,” prompting him to take a closer look, but he was soon hit by an unpleasant odor.
He said, ‘I smelled it, but I thought it was a broken water pipe or something.
‘When I went up to take a look, I saw poop everywhere. It was all over the bed. He couldn’t speak coherently.
‘He must have been very drunk. But I didn’t see any liquor bottles in the room. He was alone. There was no one there.’

Although no witnesses saw the exact moment of the fall, police and hotel staff are investigating how the holidaymaker ended up in such a condition.
In the meantime, the Briton remains in hospital, where he is expected to be released once he has fully recovered from the ordeal.
It comes after Boozy British ravers have stuck two fingers at Mallorcan authorities who are desperately trying to crack down on binge drinking and late-night benders in the party city of Magaluf.
After 10,000 locals marched through Palma and told tourists to ‘go home’, the Balearic government introduced a raft of restrictions in a bold attempt to stop the alcohol and drug-fuelled partying.
However, when MailOnline visited Magaluf in June, Brits laughed at the thought of stopping bingeing because of the new rules, saying the Spanish government should just ‘f*** off’ and they would ‘go p*** to get. ed’, no matter what.
