That's awesome. Try passing this on the UK Health and Safety... I've been to Bangkok, and the roads are just as 'unsafe'. Bikes and scooters weave all over the place and cars pull out whenever they can, but I didn't see a single accident. Over there they don't smother the country with Health and Safety laws, they just use daily common sense. It's a great place.

[RylanBegley]

Thats Food safe right?

[Slothfire]

They didn't seem to think things through properly

[kuschxx]

WTF!

[daddygazoi]

The reporter's a fuckin' douchebag

[zidmt]

Just another story of a westener inflecting his/her ideas on a country they know nothing about.

[hotlikesummer]

That's both pretty fucking cool and pretty fucking stupid at the same time.

[cmrichsw]

TIT - this is Thailand - but then bombs going off in the streets like some countries. Is it clean No but it won't kill anyone - Get over it

the veggies closest to the tracts are the daily special grease flavored

[claudegreengrass81]

@Flubberty In America maybe, but in thailand they can safely co-exist as the people there are not semi retarded

[SSFproductions1]

ZZZzzzZZzzZZz...*train coming* ow shit

[arpana52]

I am amazed!!! How can they let that happen.

[arpana52]

I am amazed!!! How can they let that happen.

[rosycherrytequila]

Only in Asia!

[001FJ]

That's why I like Wal-Mart!

[that100dude]

wait, so the train decided to go through those tracks AFTER the market was established? How did they even allow this?

[wwwtotalitaerde]

@that100dude What do you mean by "allow this"?

[that100dude]

@wwwtotalitaerde I mean, how are they allowing a train to literally go over vegetables? It can't be clean.

[wwwtotalitaerde]

@that100dude There should be no problem as long as the toilets are not like they used to be in Europe 20 years ago: Only a short piece of tube going onto the rails.

[xzaz2]

@that100dude Like the hamburgers the Yanks eat everyday are so healthy.. :x

[nbchikoroll]

@that100dude ...you know that recommendation to "wash" your veggies before eating... yea....?

[proof2580]

If i got that train to work i'd lean out the window every morning to steal breakfast. XD

[Jahffax]

And what would happen if train horn is broken

[swudeft]

wow If the train driver forgets to horn one time ... epic roadkills xDD

[MegaSabol]

dude there are 8 trains a day.they know the timings and pack up like 5 min before the train comes.

[lhrlyc]

@MegaSabol make that 30 seconds before and you have the correct timing

[kiNGLYtUbe]

I do care about hygienics but have to wash them before you eat anyway. I would like to shop there once :)

[pcorf]

With all those fish out in the 30+ degrees celcius warmth it must be unbreathable!

[Germannerd]

wooow

[Tardis1217]

my first thought: wow, that's sanitary...

my second thought: vegetables grow in dirt. You should be washing them before you eat them anyway

[selleka]

whats the 3 most important aspects of starting a business? location, location, location lol!

[TheTumboos]

Haha

[Knbj3]

hahah i would forget to move my shit.

[frescodecacao]

I love how dirty those vegetables get. And how they know just where to strategically place everything on the floor so that it doesn't get run over. I wonder how many times Fido runs across the tracks when the train is coming. "Fwee FOOD!"

[aznlilhero]

what if you had to go to the bathroom to take a shit and the train came

[zathustra]

or what if someone in the train had to go to the bathroom to take a dump and the train passes over the eateries...

[shadowknight227]

@zathustra most trains have waste tanks on them.

[zathustra]

@shadowknight227 what if the waste tanks are leaking??

[shadowknight227]

@zathustra they are requierd to check them

[gronki1]

@shadowknight227 It depends on country, in Poland trains don't have waste tanks, so it's not sure that in Bangkok they do.

[discodino]

then the train will take your tent.

[Flubberty]

this is like accident waiting to happen....

[madisonmosman]

@Flubberty its asia man, their way of life.Its not like they don't know the train is coming

[Qoconut]

hahahaha....tuuuuuut tuuuuuuuuuuuut

[nyartoo06]

It's not actually Bangkok, it's a small village outside of Bangkok

[mrpndo]

intense.

[tamadun]

whats the town called?

[Ikus13]

You're either gay, or dumb. It's Bangkok.

[jamescloonan]

that can't be hygenic.......

[ellieysama]

@jamescloonan Specially for the food exposed underneath >> you get the taste of diesel, freon and coolant XD and thats how food poisoning occurs XD

[that100dude]

@jamescloonan that can't be legal.....right?

[APOCISM]

haha

"It's time for the train. Wohoh".

[cam9408]

thats so cool!!!!

[robinoi]

Bastard arrogant train company! Good on the locals for sustaining the free market!

[lupischuck]

I've been there!!!! I've seen that train!! It's a crazy place, but soooo awesome.

[sickajoo09]

And to tell you the truth, Bangkok was ranked by "Travel and Leisure," as the best city in the world for the year 2008....

Check it out!!!!

[sickajoo09]

It is not even in Bangkok!!!!!...It's rather the periphery around it where it is densely populated by so many diverse working people...that's one of the slum and poor-conditioned area outside of Bangkom as an impact of poverty and global economic crisis!..I'm sure many major cities do have very poor-conditioned area that people force themselves to live. Anyway, Bangkok is still an angel city and its charm and magnificent beauty attracts millions of visitors worldwide.

[skyman2002fanclub]

my mom used to live in thailand. She rode that train through the market. She says people would run up to the window and try to sell you stuff through the window.

[ForeverDancing1624]

what the?? LOL that's twisted lol. this whole video is twisted

[skyman2002fanclub]

what if that had been an american supermarket and it ran right through the walls

[George21T]

NOW THAT IS one packed place to work =)

[ScottVinton]

Good for them! Our arrogant Americans would pack up and leave. But they see the value in actually putting up with crap to make a living! Impressive!

[Matinalism]

WTF!

[cilrvo]
