Thailand·DangerThe damaged jet ski
How it works
After renting a jet ski (especially in Phuket and Pattaya), the owner claims you caused pre-existing damage and demands an exorbitant sum. Sometimes accompanied by threats.
Field advice
Film the jet ski from every angle BEFORE getting on it. Better yet: avoid renting jet skis on tourist beaches altogether.
