Bangkok —
A viral video posted on November 25th, 2024, by Instagram user “armankremer” showed a parachutist jumping from a high-rise in Bangkok’s Sukhumvit area and later fleeing on a motorcycle, captioned “Business trip in Bangkok.”
On January 2nd, 2025, Thonglor Police identified three American nationals involved in the stunt: Arman Kremer, Mateo Leo Massoni, and Blake Smith. The jump occurred on October 3rd, 2024, from EM Tower, a building within the EmSphere complex. The jump was not sanctioned by authorities or relevant officials and did not involve any permission from EmSphere management.
Further investigation revealed additional footage on YouTube, posted by “Mateo Massoni,” showing the group parachuting from EM Tower on November 13th, 2024.
Thai authorities traced two rented motorcycles used in the incident to flee the scene after landing and planned to question the renters. Early reports indicate however that the suspects have long left Thailand, although are likely to be flagged for future interviews should they return.
In January of last year, 2024, a British man died in a similar stunt in Pattaya as we reported here.
