Meet Nathy Odinson, a 33-year-old thrill-seeker from Huntingdon in Cambridgeshire. He's the brother of a British base jumper who tragically passed away in Thailand due to a mistake with his parachute. Nathy has always been fascinated by extreme sports and adrenaline-fueled stunts, and on a recent trip to the coastal resort of Pattaya, he decided to take on a daring challenge.
Without any official permission, Nathy illegally climbed to the top of a 29-storey building, determined to carry out a dangerous stunt that would leave everyone in awe. With his adrenaline pumping and the wind in his hair, he counted down "three, two, one, see ya" before leaping off the building. But little did he know, this would be his last jump.
In a chilling video, Nathy can be seen landing in a tree before hitting the ground. His brother, Ed Harrison, later explained that Nathy's mini pilot parachute had gotten caught in his harness, leaving him with no chance of deploying it. Despite his significant experience and over 5,000 jumps around the world, Nathy made a fatal mistake without even realizing it.
Ed, who described his brother as "fun-loving and joyful," shared that Nathy will be greatly missed by many, especially his three children who saw him as a hero. The security guard on duty that day, Kanet Chansong, heard the sound of the tree and initially thought it was a fallen branch. But upon closer inspection, he realized it was a person - Nathy - who had jumped from the building.
Kanet also revealed that Nathy had jumped from the building multiple times before, which posed a risk for those walking below. It was clear that Nathy and his team were attempting to create daring content for social media, even though they were fully aware that it was not allowed. Unfortunately, Nathy's final jump ended in tragedy.
Emergency services and authorities arrived at the scene shortly after, but it was too late. Nathy was declared dead at the scene. Police and paramedics discovered that the parachute malfunctioned and was not centered as expected, leading to the fatal outcome. The British Embassy in Bangkok is in contact with Nathy's family in the UK, while forensic officers continue to investigate the incident.
Nathy was not only a thrill-seeker, but he was also a skydiving and base jumping enthusiast who ran his own "sky photography" company. He had extensive experience and had completed over 5,000 jumps in his lifetime. His passion for extreme sports and capturing breathtaking views from the sky will be greatly missed by his loved ones and the community.
