Nang Thong Beach Khao Lak - Drone Recovery- Only in Thailand

While filming footage for a beach video in Khao Lak I made a mistake and hit a branch of a tree with my drone. The drone spun around, lost power and got stuck on a branch around 30 meters up. I was in a bad position because all of the footage as well as the drone were way out of reach.

After a few hours some local construction guys came over to help get it out of the tree. The first attempt failed and they told me to come back after they finished work at 5:00.

That evening one of the guys volunteered to climb up and get it down for 500 Baht. He had ropes and was prepared. It looked about as safe as it could be so I agreed. He made quick work out of the climb and got the drone down. I was lucky to catch it, preventing farther damage, enabling me to recover the footage.

The recovery is something you would only see in Thailand. It became a community event.

Enjoy the video!
