Bangkok speed boat video

I was not expecting to do any more boat ride videos but.....
We went on a boat bus service from one part of the city to another.  This was to all intents and purposes a speedboat along a narrow canal - imagine taking a speedboat full tilt along the Regents canal in London and you get the idea.

I also apologise for my language as while shooting the video I thought the roof on the speedboat was collapsing - this was not the case as the driver lowered the roof to get under the bridges.

In a country where H & S can just go whistle you know you are in for a ride when the boat's conductor is wearing a crash helmet!
