Disturbing video of an elderly couple and their son brutally attacked on a night out.

Not a watch for the faint hearted

Rumours suggesting they were mouthing off but nothing proved.

Someone i know was due to go out to Bankok again in May but after seeing this, he is having second thoughts.

Read this in the guardian the other day. Seems the people who did it where very drunk and kicked off because one of the faimily accidently bumped them.

Wise bloke - absolutely no chance of getting punched in the UK...

Seriously, that's a silly reason not to go to a magnificent country with extremely friendly people on the whole. Everywhere on earth has bad places/moments/people.

No point speculating on the causes of this incident but I've heard from friends that have lived there that, while the Thai people are generally extremely friendly, if you insult or humiliate them they don't hold back.

I can't believe nobody tried to help them.

The attackers looked like kids

I would imagine they have form and are well known and they looked pretty handy.

as has been said-against a 70 yo.... That is one of those situations where I would have jumped in, seeing that old lady get floored. Disgusting animal.

On the bloke in the cap, after he has floored the lady.

They looked very handy, you would have needed a good few people to be able to step in and do something against that lot.

Not cool but TBH I've seen more violent CCTV footage! The family were quite lucky. (Actually, wasn't that recent one in the petrol station posted here where the guy was unconscious and was still kicked in the head?)

probably would be silly but hey ho, I've done it before and I'm not standing by seeing someone completely incapable of defending themselves against a thug. It could have been my parents. id snap that thin prick like a twig hehe

So called Thai mafia maybe?
Though whenever we used to go out to clubs there, we'd use ladyboys to mind our stuff and seats. No one fks with the la toys, unless they want that sort of fking obviously.

Remember what the national sport is of Thailand never under estimate one of them.

You really can't believe nobody helped? Not every country has the same ideals as us.

Their national sport is Muay Thai. Pretty much everybody in Thailand can fight.

I do not travel. Reduces the risk of this sort of thing happening at the hands of foreign savages.

The chap in this video was also kicked in the head. Actually, the savage pigs jumped on his head.
