DiCaprio's Legacy

Once upon a time in Thailand two guys, studied in Bangkok, went out to discover amazing Thailand. After ten hours with the night-train in a third class compartment and with just one hour of sleep, they arrived in Surathani. They didn´t sleep because they had to fight with cockroaches, mosquitos and the Thai-Railway-System. This route has just one rail and every time a train came from the other direction, their train had to wait in emergency lay-by. When the other train passed by it was such as loud as a jet plane on low level flight. From Surathani the two took the ferry to Kho Phi Phi. One of the most beautiful islands in the world. Beaches white as snow and crystal clear water. It’s the place where Leonardo DiCaprio made the movie “The Beach”. 

In the evening the two men went out for some party. Three bars and the dance floor right at the beach. The perfect location to drink some beer, enjoy your life and lose your mind. Few beers later the owner of the bar wanted to start a drinking contest and asked for some volunteers. The task consisted of drinking a bucket of whiskey with a straw together and three shots (wodka, whiskey, tequila) each as fast as possible. 

First Team: Two boys from Argentina. They drank the bucket and the three shots in 100 seconds.

Second Team: Two english poser. They tried to drink the bucket when one of them started to puke. Few seconds later the other one went crazy and jumped into the sea. Never seen him again. 

Third Team: Two Swedish girls. Yes exactly, blonde, blue eyes and big boobs. (We love Sweden) But they weren’t good drinker. After the girls finished the bucket they quit the competition and left the shots on the table. 

Fourth and last team: Two lovely and handsome boys from Germany. Well, the boys swallowed, no, they inhaled the bucket with sonic speed. The spectators screamed: “Oh my god, oh my god.” I thought a natural disaster is coming. Remember, the Swedish girls left their shots. So the Germans drank six shots each in an extraordinary time. NEW PHI PHI ISLAND RECORD!  39 seconds! How does it sound? Yes, it sounds glorious and I think the record still exists till today. 

First price: One bottle of Tequila!! Olé!

The night ended with the feeling of proud, glory, honor and two Swedish girls. The morning started with the worst headache you can’t even imagine. But it was worth it.

Well, next time I’ll tell you how and why some people swim back home from a party.
