Thai Bodybuilder Accuses Israeli Tourists of Disrupting Hotel at 2 AM
Thai bodybuilder Prakasit Krueabut accused Israeli tourists of banging on his hotel room door at 2 AM in Bangkok's Pratunam area, saying the loud disruption frightened his wife and vowing to post a critical video about the incident.
On August 9, 2026, Toon Veegan, or Prakasit Krueabut, a national bodybuilding athlete, posted angrily after foreign tourists identified as Israeli nationals allegedly harassed him in the early morning at a hotel in the Pratunam area of Bangkok.
Toon recounted that he was peacefully sleeping at the hotel around 2 AM when a group of people suddenly banged heavily on his room door four times with tremendous force while he and his wife were sound asleep. The group was laughing loudly, shouting, and talking boisterously without regard for others. After a while, he heard them slam their room door loudly.
He called the hotel to complain and was told the group was Israeli tourists. "People often speak negatively about you," Toon wrote, "and only defenders come to your aid. But today I've witnessed with my own eyes what you're really like. Don't bother me. You've startled and frightened my beloved wife, fearing someone might harm us."
Toon expressed his frustration, saying: "I won't tolerate this. This is Thailand, this is my home. Show some respect to the owner of the house. I'm awake now and exhausted. Soon I'll make a proper video criticizing them. Just wait and see. How dare you traumatize my beloved wife's emotions. I'll prepare a video for you. Stay tuned."
