From the Nation, Bangkok’s English language newspaper:
Lance Corporal Bunlert Polphra, a police commando from the elite Arintharat unit lowering himself from a helicopter and hitting the ground during a fire-rescue exercise at the Police Aviation Division yesterday.
Upside: He was only 10 meters away from the ground out of the 35-meter drop when he repelled down Aussie style. So yeah, he lives.
