A drunken senior citizen was impaled on railings while attempting to enter his home.

The evening had taken a turn for the worse for Michael Girling, a 65-year-old retiree from Britain. After a night out with his friends at various bars in Pattaya, Thailand, he stumbled his way back to his rented home. However, upon reaching his gate, he discovered that he was too drunk to unlock it. Frustrated and determined to get inside, he attempted to climb over the iron railings that surrounded his property. But his intoxicated state caused him to slip, and one of the gold spikes on the fence pierced through his abdomen.

In excruciating pain and stuck on the railing, Michael cried out for help. Luckily, his neighbor Pat, who was 50 years old, heard his cries and rushed to his aid. She found him impaled on the metal bars and immediately called an ambulance. The paramedics arrived and were able to get Michael off the fence safely with the help of a ladder.

Pat revealed that Michael had only been living in the house for a few months before this chaotic incident occurred. She also mentioned that the expat spent the night in the hospital and is currently recovering. The paramedic who treated him, Nakaret Cha, confirmed that Michael had suffered a night of agony but is now on the road to recovery.

In a similar incident in 2016, a young boy in Thailand also found himself impaled on a gate while trying to climb over it. This serves as a reminder of the dangers of attempting such stunts, especially when under the influence of alcohol. It was fortunate that Michael had a neighbor to help him, as the situation could have been much worse if he had been left there all night.

According to Nakaret Cha, the cause of the accident was Michael's attempt to unlock the gate and enter his house by himself. But his drunken state made it impossible for him to use the house key. He then made the risky decision to climb over the fence, which ended in a terrible accident.

This incident serves as a reminder to always drink responsibly and never attempt dangerous feats while under the influence.
