It’s not for everyone Gerard that’s for sure and was a lot easier than a couple of adventures we had afterwards. I do realise that some/most people enjoy watching my exploits rather than doing them. Cheers
Well it’s definitely uphill but if you can handle Phratamnak Hill you can do it. Give me a shout if you’re still in Pattaya. I’ve just updated to the Action 4 from the 3 and I’m love to talk about making my videos more cinematic. My LINE ID is drkarlos
Definitely a spectacular view Karl! We’ve never been to PK; however, it’s now on our list of places to visit in Thailand 🇹🇭 Thanks for posting this video 😊
Another top notch presentation Karl. You always know you are going to get views to savour...John looked like he had maybe enjoyed one or two more drinks than the rest of the team the previous night lol...nice to see that lad react quickly to help him up.
Quality video love the music youve added Karlthanks again for allowing us to come with you on your hike is was a beautiful place to visit , I think there is help out there for you and your fetish for walking up steps haha
Gday Karl, great vid didn;t know about the other way up. willm be in Prachuap Khiri Khan next month and will defo give it a go. A beautiful spot away from the crowds. Im in Phuket at the minute can't wait to leave lol, cheers
The reward was well worth the climb….stunning yet again. When the 3 of you were taking in the sight from the top it was like a scene from The King and Tri. Great vid…..cheers Karl.
Amazing views Karl. Would love to take the family up there. Do you reckon the monkeys are aggressive 🤔? How long was the back trail mate. Absolutely love your vids mate. 👍
I wouldn't hesitate to take a family up via the main staircase. The monkeys are fine so long as you have nothing that looks like food or drink in sight. I will probably take only 15-20 minutes to get up there via the main staircase. Cheers
with your knowledge of the country, any interesting finds that match your hiking with archaelogy? the air crash site was a huge accomplishment. south country has a few archaeology sites, for ex wat tham, but idk if any climbing involved. northeast ban chiang is the most famous one.
I've never been that big on archaelogy tbh, that doesn't mean I don't appreciate it when I come across it just that I'm usually attracted to locations because of their natural beauty or terrain first. I presume you saw the video I did about the old wall in Lampang Province. I do have some sites of archaelogical interest penned in for future videos, just a matter of when I can get the time/resources to d them. Cheers

Great video & effort climbing the ladder while filming with a camera. Better going up the ladder than down. Do you save an entrance fee by going the back way ?
Hi mate , my Wife Auntie lives not far from there next time we go down there we visit looks stunning. I did wonder what was between your legs when you where on the ladder? Then we see your mates head 555 . Fantastic one again we loved it .👏👏👌
It's always a compromise what to add and leave out tbh. The trend seems to be shorter edits but I don't mind the occasional long video if the video and events warrant it. Cheers
I bought a soi dog and monkey stick that is collapsing. Can’t wait to try it. It’s from the Chinese site Temu and it was under 3$us . I bought five to give away in Thailand and if I see you I’ll try to hold one back. It’s a humorous at the least
Yes mate, I'm only keen on camera mounts on motorbikes, other than that I prefer to hand hold so I can frame the shots. A bit precarious sometimes though. Cheers
Brilliant Karl and friends. Quite a climb, well done to all. Views are spectacular 😊
Yeah, it's a beautiful place and that second route up adds a bit of spice. Cheers
Those views qualify to be in a fairytale. Really beautiful spot there.
It’s stunning Serge, and right on the town centre too. Cheers
I went up once, never forgot the excruciating pain in my calves the next day 😂
Incredible the effort put into building these Buddha view places🙏♥️🇹🇭 👏
It’s not for everyone Gerard that’s for sure and was a lot easier than a couple of adventures we had afterwards. I do realise that some/most people enjoy watching my exploits rather than doing them. Cheers
@@karlsthailand I met local who does it every day for exercise..
Great job mate 👍 Absolutely amazing place mate
Glad you enjoyed it Nigel. Cheers
Looks like a good workout getting up there, but the view looks very much worth it. Nice video Karl !

Thanks you for bird eye view.🙏🤟👍💜💜💜💜
My pleasure, yes, some great views there. Cheers
Definitely a spectacular view Karl! We’ve never been to PK; however, it’s now on our list of places to visit in Thailand 🇹🇭 Thanks for posting this video 😊
My pleasure Marietta. It’s particularly cool because it right in the centre of town, and a beautiful town it is too!
Another top notch presentation Karl. You always know you are going to get views to savour...John looked like he had maybe enjoyed one or two more drinks than the rest of the team the previous night lol...nice to see that lad react quickly to help him up.
Glad you enjoyed it Mark. We drank a lot, got to bed on the early hours, met up again at 6 am, knocked off this place and then drove to Krabi lol
Hello Karl, I recall do that from the front side and meeting you, Some day let's do the climb again. Very nice camera/ phone work
Yeah, remeber it well CJ. That route up was a lot tougher back then mate! Cheers
Quality video love the music youve added Karlthanks again for allowing us to come with you on your hike is was a beautiful place to visit , I think there is help out there for you and your fetish for walking up steps haha
Cheers John, I've just learned to surrender to my fetishes these days mate. Cheers
Thank you gentleman lovely view from the top, thanks for the video.
My pleasure LCT
from google, I see the color yellow has symbolic meaning for both buddhism and the royal family. the color nicely framed your hike on this one.
Yes, the colour scheme there definitely works Donald. Cheers
Thank you Carl! I'm in Bangkok now,coming on tuesday to Prachuap by train and I will clime up the hill the easy way 😅
Easy way is still beautiful Erika, have fun!
Yeah the boys!
lol - that saves me going up - cheers
Yeah Paul. I wonder how many go up them stairs and then back out when they reach the ladder? Cheers
Nice one Karl, wow what a view 😉😛🙈
Yeah, I thought I'd share sdome of the views with you all lol.
Always wondered about going up there. Ao Manao was a go to place for my family years ago. You're still a beast. ;) Great video.
Cheers, either route up there is nice tbh but the ladder wouldn’t be for everyone.
Gday Karl, great vid didn;t know about the other way up. willm be in Prachuap Khiri Khan next month and will defo give it a go. A beautiful spot away from the crowds. Im in Phuket at the minute can't wait to leave lol, cheers
Have fun. Well worth trying the adventurous route for a bit of variety, thanks
Lovely spot , I have been up the normal route, was not aware of the second route up cheers Karl will have to try it myself 🍻
You should, the ladder my test some but other than that it's simple compared to just a few years ago. Cheers
Love the link you’ve added
The reward was well worth the climb….stunning yet again. When the 3 of you were taking in the sight from the top it was like a scene from The King and Tri.
Great vid…..cheers Karl.
Yeah, Prachuap really is a stunning town and it's one hell of a vantage point. Cheers
Amazing views Karl. Would love to take the family up there. Do you reckon the monkeys are aggressive 🤔? How long was the back trail mate. Absolutely love your vids mate. 👍
I wouldn't hesitate to take a family up via the main staircase. The monkeys are fine so long as you have nothing that looks like food or drink in sight. I will probably take only 15-20 minutes to get up there via the main staircase. Cheers
I like the big donger nice one Karl x
I think I know what you mean lol. Cheers
Brilliant memories
Cheers Ant. We'd got up so early on hangovers and still had a long drive ahead didn't we. Thailand's a big place and you need time.
That ladder looks like awesome fun , and amazing views !
Yes, the ladder keeps it fun! Thanks
Lovely to see the 3 musketeers on new adventures. Great job as usual✅
More to come Anders! Thanks
Great video karl as always
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks

Hi, I was there in October. Great stuff.
It’s a great thing to be able to visit right in the centre of town isn’t it? Cheers

I’ve subbed you and will check some of the content out later. Cheers
Great video & effort climbing the ladder while filming with a camera. Better going up the ladder than down. Do you save an entrance fee by going the back way ?
No lol, it's free no matter what route you take. Cheers
Hi mate , my Wife Auntie lives not far from there next time we go down there we visit looks stunning. I did wonder what was between your legs when you where on the ladder? Then we see your mates head 555 . Fantastic one again we loved it .👏👏👌
Lol. If your aunt lives near to there then it's well worth trying out the more adventurous route up. Cheers
Absolutely love PKK area ❤🇹🇭
I think that view up there is one of best in Thailand.
PKK bay is stunning for sure and that Temple makes the most of it. Cheers
You in Pattaya recently mate sure i see you didn’t wanna scream out karl just incase not haha
Yes, I am so it may well have been me. I often get people saying hello and I honestly think it’s pretty cool. Cheers
2 weeks ago i was there, too
It's a beautiful place isn't it George?
100%@@karlsthailand
Very nice place!!! Your video seemed a little rushed. I know there was much more to see!
Thanks anyway... Jim
It's always a compromise what to add and leave out tbh. The trend seems to be shorter edits but I don't mind the occasional long video if the video and events warrant it. Cheers
I enjoyed it...
Wow you'd never get me up that ladder
It's definitely high and steep lol. Cheers
yeah nah I think i will tap out on that ladder, cant get hurt
have you tried the bike path around the airport
In all honesty pushbikes have never been my thing even though they make so much sense sometimes. Cheers
Ramps are much better than steps , unless to step
Steep
Karl’ s Thailand heart attack channel
I bought a soi dog and monkey stick that is collapsing. Can’t wait to try it. It’s from the Chinese site Temu and it was under 3$us . I bought five to give away in Thailand and if I see you I’ll try to hold one back. It’s a humorous at the least
That sounds brilliant. My mate Baldy Brian hates those monkeys with a vengeance! Cheers
I thought it was pretty tame compared to what it used to be like. Cheers
*With one hand
Yes mate, I'm only keen on camera mounts on motorbikes, other than that I prefer to hand hold so I can frame the shots. A bit precarious sometimes though. Cheers
if the steps down were made into a water slide u might get me up there obviously via a helicopter🤣
Yep, even the easy route ain't thaty easy lol. Cheers
that monkey in the end of the video looked like it was going to attack your friend!
They often do look that way. They don’t back down until you act with confidence. I find it best to just walk past them on a determined way. Cheers
0:04 kidding me? 😂
Yeah, definitely preferred that ladder the way it used to be lol
