‘This is how Planet of the Apes starts’ — As coronavirus slams Thailand tourism, monkeys brawl in the streets

Shawn Langlois

There were bound to be plenty of unpredictable consequences as a result of the coronavirus outbreak, but a gang war between rival packs of monkeys in the streets of Thailand? Sasaluk Rattanachai, a local shopkeeper who was credited by the Daily Mail for capturing the footage, claimed that this is the first time she's ever seen such a clash between the temple monkeys and the city monkeys, two different groups separated by a train track. Of course, you'll recall that the original novel of THE PLANET OF THE APES begins with a pandemic virus.

“I think the monkeys were very, very hungry. There’s normally a lot of tourists here to feed the monkeys but now there are not as many, because of the coronavirus,” she said. “They went crazy for a single piece of food. I’ve never seen them this aggressive.”

Wild

It would take a whole lot of tourists to feed that many monkeys.

Looks like a madhouse.




A maaaadhoooooouuuuse.

Or wait, maybe I misunderstood. Are the locals feeding the monkeys with tourists? If so, it would take fewer tourists to feed the monkeys. Maybe ten a day or so.

I’d like to have seen them take down one of them scooter riding sob’s. Hell just listening to it would be hysterically funny .

Harry Belafonte's concert in Bangkok next week could get ugly.

Planet of the Apes predicted this

And you wonder how and why pandemics happen.

Dirty, filthy monkeys. Stupid humans - quit feeding them! Quit eating them!

Well, they will not be throwing their poop. If they have to eat it

I'm picturing a sequel to this with a heavy West Side Story influence featuring switchblade wielding ladyboys defending the streets of Bangkok from roving gangs of apes.

You know, considering what Thailand is usually known for, stories about roving gangs of vicious monkeys can only improve their image.

Someone should show those sonnabitches what's for desert on Indiana Jones......

LMAO

When I need a laugh, this place always delivers.

Delicious food?

Caesar!

Just think, now you can get both the Clap and Coronavirus in Bangkok!

It's like a 2-1 special. I bet the even whores have lowered their prices due to slumping demand. :LOL:

Hopefully you can still get to Thailand.

This is eDave, coming to you live from CP/DC.

Got my flight booked and my masks packed! :D

One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
And if you're lucky then the god's a she
I can feel an angel sliding up to me

Breaking News: Earlier today, the Thailand Prime Minister officially changed the name of Bangkok to Jumanji City.

That was awesome!

So we're at the "Monkey Knife Fights" part of this whole pandemic.

That's how I envision Dane's trip to Costco yesterday.

We went to Sam's Club yesterday and it was a freakin madhouse.

Yeah that was good. Costco, Sams Club, monkey riot, same thing...

At a Thai Marine jungle survival school years ago. They taught us a monkey catching technique.

Go to an “open” space, stake down a rope/noose, sit down, place it over your head a couple of times. Carry on your mission, upon returning to your camp, you’ll have a monkey on the rope. Monkey see...

never tried it. Of course the same instructor guys drink Cobra blood, so I never took their lessons seriously.

If they'll provide a few cases of green bananas and a thousand rounds of buckshot, I know a guy who could be contracted to resolve that conflict.

There was a small part in a documentary about these exact monkeys. They are protected living on the temple grounds and as soon as night comes they pack the streets every night getting food from the tourists and locals.

“Lop Buri is home to thousands of monkeys. Each has to swear allegiance to one of two gangs — temple monkeys and city monkeys.”

Choose your gang - like Costco.

But don’t screw with the monkeys. We used to drink “Cubi nukes” and bet on the monkeys success at stealing grocery bags from folks leaving the commissary in the P.I.
Whatever you threw at them came back twice as accurately and twice as hard.

First thing you hear once you cross the bridge over shit river which seperates the Subic Bay Naval Base and Olongapo Cith Phillipines is............monkey meat, got monkey meat. They cook right there on the street, you eat it off a stick, it's delicious.

The early 80s were powered solely on yayo.

Or the Balut vendors Previously discussed in another thread.

But first you had to throw Pesos into the shit river to the Bonka boat boys off the bridge. I was well past you 100 missions over the shit River patch. Marmot was the first big club across the River and the hooks would all cheer your River crossing

I wouldn't want to be standing around when those starving monkeys realize that humans are a source of food.

Remember when that chick had her face eaten by that chimp a few years ago? At the time I remember reading an article saying that when chimps attack, they target three areas: the face, the hands, and the genitals.


Just a heads up in case anyone is thinking of challenging any simians to fisticuffs.

see-sah good ape

Imagine all the crap on the street. Talk about land mines. Those scooters better have fenders.

You might be right! :LOL:
