Terrified passengers have leapt into the sea to escape a fire ferry travelling to a popular tourist destination off the coast of Thailand. The vessel from Surat Thani province was about to arrive at Koh Tao when a passenger suddenly heard a crackling sound and smelt smoke.
Maitree Promjampa said he saw billowing smoke and fire less than five minutes later, and that was when people started shouting and rang the alarm. “We could barely get the life vests in time,” he told The Associated Press. “It was chaotic. People were weeping I also teared up.” All 108 people on board - of which 97 were passengers - were safe, officials said. Footage showed huge plumes of black smoke billowing from the ferry - with vehicles and families including young children on board - and several boats going to their rescue.
People could be seen hurrying out of the ferry's cabin while putting on life jackets, as thick black smoke swept across the vessel and it became engulfed in flames.
Maitree, a Surat Thani resident who often travels to Koh Tao for work, said several boats came to their rescue around 20 minutes after they called for help, but the boats could not get close to the ferry out of fear of explosions. He said people had to jump into the sea to be rescued. “Everyone had to help themselves,” he said. The ferry from Surat Thani to Koh Tao carries both commuters and tourists. Koh Tao is about 100 kilometers from the coast.
