I went and on my first day I went out at 2am not knowing everything closes.. LB grabs my arm from the shadows.. tight grip but I wear sneakers in case and LB was in heels
The Ben story is a silly story .. man should have listened to ya .. oh dear.
Been over 100 times to Thailand since 1994. Not once, have I ever had trouble. I find 90% of thai people very accommodating & very helpful. Stunning country, beautiful culture.
I agree with everything that you said. I've been here for a while myself but it doesn't mean that these things doesn't happen. There are good and bad people everywhere.
he is a two week Millionaire.
My takeaway? Don't get drunk, don't get mad, don't fall in love, don't look like you have money and don't be stupid. The first time I went to a place with bar girls / gogo dancers, I was stupid, and I fell in love. Fortunately, I had done my homework, I managed to keep my wits about me enough to tell her that I was out of money, and she vanished on me. After that first time, I was never that stupid again. I think every guy who has gone his whole life with no female attention will be completely unprepared for that first time. It's something you've got to experience and get through, and hopefully, nothing really bad happens to you.
I think guys should experience the game in other countries where it's more transactional, cut and dry first before Thailand. The act girls put on there compared to other places is next level.
That's right, just be straight up and say I'm here to get my bone polished😂😂
sounds like Colombia lmao
So what you're saying is it's definitely not worth going to Thailand, Cambodia or Philippines unless you are strictly visiting the country side , museums or a planned event. And never go into the cities. Lmao gotcha
Pattaya looks like a shit hole
Great to see you back on TH-cam.. You have a real talent for this, Keep it going!!
Keis, Sam and Mac. The ultimate 3sum 🤣🤣🤣. My FAVE TH-camrs 🤟🏻🤟🏻. Keep on keeping me entertained please !!
That 1st lady boy story, getting ripped off etc, happened to me in the 80s in Hamburg Germany 🇩🇪, but they'd spiked my drinks in the club, ended up in the gutter at midnight minus 800 pounds equivalent, was very lucky really, could have been a lot worse, great video cheers 🍻 from 🍻 Australia 🇦🇺 ❤ 😊
Great advice! I am a veteran of Pattaya and Bangkok, and I agree with all he said. It;s a great place for adult fun, ust be cool and smart!
No matter where in the world, fools & their money are easily parted!
had some experience have you fool?
Thanks
🤩🤩 Thank you!! 🤩 🤩
Thanks!
I had these same speeches done while I was in the Navy by the older experienced NCOs, I had a few near misses but those speeches saved me- Thank god for people like yourself who give this information out! Whats the name of your bar, I will have to stop by next year for vacation to have a few drinks and BS about Motorcycles!
The worse of the worse . Many times I have seen fantastic acts of honesty. Bar girls running after customers who have left their phones in the bar. I even saw a man passing a bar dropping a wad of notes as he was walking past a bar the bar girls sat in the bar picked up the notes and gave them back to him.
Find some nice bars smile and treat the people with respect the odd tip or drink now and again is well appreciated and you will be well respected and looked after.
Respect: That's the key word here! Keep respectful and treat locals with respect!
OK, but I would say it has more to do with the time of day. One thing that never gets mentioned in the difference in danger between early evening and very late evening. If you're out after 1 a.m. you're asking for trouble. If you keep an early schedule you won't have problems almost anywhere in the world.
I had been planning moving to Pattaya for several years..planned on next year 2025..I'll be 70 in fair health but what you said:(no one else has) if you are alone and medical is inevitably, will at sometime become prevalent. More research'n is need thanks bunches for keeping it real.
My Favourite Pattaya TH-camr
Just watched your videos for the first time your last 3) and they were excellent buddy, really enjoyed them so keep em coming as you are natural
Thanks so much for your work on showing us the real side to what goes on
No your limit play with in it ...🎉❤love the channel...always push the like button
I really love your vlogging style and the editing. You'll soon reach 100K ...
Cheers for the videos I hope you are doing well, pressure must be on sometimes making videos. I wish you success and 'practice what you preach' good ol Patts has had many a good man, ie 2 becoming 3 🤩
This guy is 🔥...... I like your content about awareness and in general how to live life in a new country
I can't think of one place in the world that I've been where its a good idea to get blackout drunk and something bad doesn't happen to you. More often than not, you're ok in the US, UK and from what I've heard, France and Australia. I'd watch my drinks in Pattaya if it gets out of your sight, don't finish it. I don't trust strangers of any gender, ANYWHERE
You would be okay here in Canada. As long as you are not driving. If you're drunk out in the streets and cops approach you, they will most of the time look out for your well being. Ask you if there is somewhere for you to go sleep, advise you to call a taxi or if someone can come pick you up.
Great video mac,very good information,to take note.
Keeping a cool head and treating people with respect are the main rules. "Got to have a good vibe." - Bob Marley.
I sort of didn't want to watch this video because I knew that it would be full of horror stories. But I watched it anyway because I thought that it would contain some good information. What a hell some people have ended up in. Thanks for telling us all this awful episodes of life.
the stories are all made up
Cool edits, man. Great
Tight work.
Fantastic advice, I have watched a few of your videos thanks well put together.
Cheers bro 😎👍
Quality video's bro, keep them coming. Subbed!
Great Vid Mac !!
Riveting! I have to up my game to keep up with this!!!!
Aha your game is already up there bro 😎👊
Another great video.
Full of info.👍
Hi Mac I just discovered your channel, finally someone telling the truth, I live in Pattaya for 20 years already and you said it all.
Thanks and welcome
The Ben story.......a fool and his money are soon parted. Very sad story.
Amazing editing skills, mate! Kind regards from Europe, Croatia!
I worked with a pipe fitter many years ago up in the shetland island on the gas plant, this fella frequented Thailand rather often and funnilly enough this man went by the name of Mac as well... Is this your father haha
Another brilliant video pal.
You are the messiah for our young lads exploring Pattaya and south east Asian party land resorts.
Wish had you around 30 years ago as you would have saved me a fortune 😂😂
Thank You for Your video. I had an experience in Krakow , I know : not far. Someone litterally dragged me into the place. Telling me , "this is a gentlemans club" I said : "I am no gentleman" ( I am into architekt ; construction and buildings) But they managed to charge me for 5000 kr , equal to 450.- Euro for 52 seconds. I was a fool!!
Are you sure you were in Krakow? Change currency in your comment 😅
Hey, I saw you today ... I had no idea who you were , but I did notice you were doing a video.. 🤟
Very good mate, I’ve been coming since 1990, same same
awesome video mate ! not sure if you remember me but I met you few weeks back at the opening night of the Las Vegas Beer hall on Soi Diana. I was with Sam and Lele. Oh, and I'm Cookie from Sam's video about the DISGRACEFUL Aussie in Pattaya haha ! Keep up the good content my man.
How can I forget you haha, good to hear from you cookie 🍪 hope your doing well mate 😎👍
@@mactvtravel ..... haha. Aye mate, back home for a few weeks now which sucks. But already planning next years trip so hopefully you're still about and we can down many many beers together ! And possibly more content !!
@thecookdogg sounds like a plan bro 😎 👊
Love your videos. Very informative..
That’s nothing a British guy I knew in Cambodia went to prison for murder but he didn’t actually do it, the person died from an overdose. He still got 10 years though. It’s a long story but I could have been implicated too, fortunately I had enough judgement to not become involved
That’s sad to hear I’m sorry for your friend
Great video, thanks for sharing!
The story you tell around 03:00 involved an American and an Aussie.
And I recall the required CCTV was of course not working.
Brother you have an excellent channel and provide great information that will help a lot of people. You have a good heart to tell it like it is. I'm a new subscriber and will definitely buy you some coffee! 👍
Thank you mate
Great stuff! What bar do you work at? I’m heading there to pattaya with a buddy just to relax, drink, eat.
You can catch me at fire bar Soi 6 on Friday 8pm for the parties, info is in my community tab 👍
I've never been there myself, but I heard that you never tell the Pattaya locals that this is your first visit! They will try to take advantage of your naivete!
unfortunately all of these cases are an age old story, this type of things was happening in the late 80's when i started visiting SE Asia, as you said you can only warn some people
As an old guy, love watching these vids.😂
Absolutely NOTHING new here. Been there, done that before these people were born!😂😂😂😂
Have tons of stories that make these stories sound like a Disney tale😂😅😂😅
Thanks for sharing. Keep it up.
When i travel I spend most of my time in the bars where I'm cool with the owners, managers or mamasans.
why did you get fired from the bar?
after watching your vids it has been super informative and entertaining and has given me a real strong feeling to use my savings to take a month or twoo off in thailand.
keep up the awesome work dude.
Ps : if you ever need free to use eletronic music to use for your videos hit me up and i will give you my personal details. I am a producer and musician.
Hey man cool I’m Allways looking for music can you send me an email
Hello mate, loving your videos!! I’m back out in Thailand and mainly Pattaya in February. Do you still have a bar or still about? Would be great to meet you. 🤙🏻
Is that a Rangers bar in the background @3:00? Going to Pattaya in June for 3-6 months would be good to catch a few games while I'm there😁
I am there for a day. Long story short I’m on a cruise with my mother (Asia cruise things she wanted do for years & dad won’t go) & we do 2 nights at local port. One day in Bangkok but it’s expensive and tiring. So day 2 she was gonna stay on the ship and I was going into Payatta. Hopefully it’s not dangerous by day time? Really I’d just love a nice bar to chill out at and maybe do a bit of swimming.
Is there a base camp ⛺️
Set up in the said country.??
If not I think that is a great idea like yourself…
To set up a understanding camp for the tourists
Like in Las Vegas.. and Atlanta city ..
Great thought provoking video. Are there occasions when a girl's affection is genuine do you think? I've just got home from a trip. My head's in a mess.
Good advice man thank you.
This is a really interesting video but I have a strange question. Its probably an obvious one but I’m going to ask it anyway since I’ve never been to Thailand or out of the United States. Do you ever see tourist women in those bars or is it mainly men?
Not many tourist women here
@@mactvtravel I appreciate the reply, thank you. Is it safe for women to go to bars there? Or is the area more geared towards men? I've always been curious about bars in other countries.
@alainaanderson3408 it’s very safe for women
great video!:) please credit me in the description when using my music tho🙏
Nice bro good job❤
i will sit with my guys and listen to the stories thanks for the education bless ya brilliant observation first class presentation
If you forward your bio to the insurance company at they may reimburse you. It’s worth checking with them before traveling.
Thanks mate very informative
I know there are some popular places but it happens at bars in NYC also... tourist have to be careful unless you are with a tour group which can minimize the risks.
If you drive a car, your own, or a rental, get a dash cam! Locals will lie and blame you, no matter what actually happened. Video proof is gold
I've been to Amazing Thailand 24 times, and have never ever experienced any unpleasant incidents
Good explaination. Thanks
I wish we could tell foreigners in our country to be respectful
Bottom line, if you are a petty backpacker, instead of a stand up citizen tourist. You will find trouble no matter where you go.
Damn! With this list you put up and some of other vloggers telling horror stories about Pattaya, you be better off in Las Vegas. Thanks for the info.
Great vid … I’d love to work with you there 💪
Check out my latest vid, details are there 👍
@@mactvtravel of course it is my favorite travel spot and hopefully I’m looking to move there in the next few months

You as a young man are very well genned up very well done to you
Normally I would doubt Ben is a real person but I know lots of shortsighted people that don't think about stuff for longer than 10seconds.
Honored you used my thumbnail haha
😂😂 cheers man
I've been to Thailand 12 times, never a single problem. I always stay in residential neighborhoods. Never been to a night district.
I go to pattaya for months at a time and this is true
excellent advice mate...going for first time in Jan 2025...
Thx for the video (great for newbies) but what's the name of the bar you manage? I'm actually a little surprised that that info isn't front and center. It'd be great to see you and to buy you a drink!
Check out the my mistake in Pattaya video the information is in there 👍
#1 was a common story in Angeles City.... police set ups...
I’m returning December 2. Where, exactly is your bar located?
Best information your ever going to get if out are out eye balling kittens
Good tips bro
What club are you at? I saw you at a club on the 6 in another vlog by that tall guy.
May, I ask is your bar in Pattaya? If yes, which bar do you own? I go to Pattaya a lot, so I will look to pop in sometime and say hello.
I was thinking of paying tour guide is that a good idea and is there a reputable company or how do I contact one
Nice content.. I have seen a bit of this..
What bar do you work in?
I was there in 1987 and you didn’t fuck with the locals then
Nice stuff. "Pulling the wool over his eyes" - in my country we says "to soap someone's eyes"
😂
great channel
Which bar you work ?
I had a girl and we went to bars and clubs and she brought a friend.. she actually bought her own drinks and she bought her friend drinks.. I was very surprised when she bought me a drink.
The local 'girls' see foreign men as a xmas turkey
whats ur bar ?. I was there for 8 months last year..
Good advise
Hey what is the name of your bar I would really like to visit some day
hey im visiting pataya next week and wanted to know the name of your bar!
I don’t have a bar mate only TH-cam now 👍
Just a question: Is THE DOGS BOLLOCKS BAR still in existence?
Ben's story reminds me of a song: "Soldadito marinero"
Hi Mac, is there any way I can get in contact with you about moving to Thailand?
Send me an email
@@mactvtravelwhat’s your email address bro??
