Tragedy strikes in Thailand as a 33-year-old base jumper lost his life this past weekend. Nathy Odinson, a British national, tragically died after his parachute failed to deploy while jumping from a 29-story skyscraper located in the coastal town of Pattaya.

According to the Daily Mail, Odinson illegally climbed to the rooftop of the apartment building and was accompanied by an individual who recorded the moments leading up to the jump, intending to share them on various social media platforms.

The footage of Odinson preparing for the jump and audibly counting down from three before plunging into the void has since been circulated on these networks.

Unfortunately, as reported by the Daily Mail, Odinson collided with a tree prior to crashing onto the ground. Despite the immediate response from emergency services, they could only confirm his death upon arrival at the scene.

The incident was reported to the Pattaya tourist police at 7:30 p.m. They quickly rushed to the apartment building in Tambon Na Klua, Bang Lamung district of Chonburi province, where Odinson’s lifeless body was discovered. A partially deployed blue parachute was also found on his person.

The building’s security guard revealed that Odinson had made multiple jumps from the building in the past, posing a risk to pedestrians below. He stated, “They were creating video content for social media. They had already done it before and were well aware it wasn’t permitted.”
