I thought you would be interested to see a documentary entirely devoted to Thailand broadcasted on french TV last month.

The doc shows different subjects like people eating insects, people working with monkeys, monks breeding tigers, temples, elephants, children going to temple, people selling their swallow nests (surprising!)..

The video is dubbed in french but i think people who understand thai can clearly hear it.

The presentator didn't want to come back home then

Download the video (attention ! 843 MB!!)
(right click and save as)

Enjoy

Isn't it ''insects''?

yes

Insects!?! I love them. Yummy!
If I have to choose between McDonald and insects. Then I'll pick those insects. You might think it's gross. Yeah it's kinda gross before you eat. But it's better for you than those fries in Mc.

Uhhhhh I am a super poster! Super cool then.

hahaha Super Ongkot

Maybe I'd like insect too, this is protein after all

i'm getting download speed of up to 1250 KB/sec !!!!!


thanks very much for this video ! i hope to be able to watch it in less than 10 minutes !


edit - just finished downloading!! approx 10 minutes total !!

It took me 2 hours!!! <_<

Don't know why, but I couldn't get it past 250 kbps.. Usually I get about 500.

Maybe because of Anurak's download ?

YES!! That's it! Arrrggghhhhh! You bandwidth hog!!!

It took me about 5 hrs last night.

Now I finish watching.
This video is really a highlight of Thailand. Recommended.

I have some more information about some content in the video.
About the tiger temple, you can check out its website here.

At the almost the end of the video where they show a monk riding a horse, he is trying to fight drug and help kids who dont have parents. And more than that, he also teach Muay Thai, I mean Muay Boran. That's really amazing.



Well, the story is very similar to Ongbak in that Ting was abandoned in a temple and a monk taught him Muay Thai.
