Kritsanapong Kongsri, 40, told rescue teams that he was on his way from Kathu to Koh Kaew at about midday when his car slid out of control on an S-curve, sending his white Pajero off-road and into the deep ditch.
Rescue workers had to use “jaws-of-life” hydraulic cutters to recover Mr Kritsanapong from the vehicle.
Mr Kritsanapong suffered neck and back injuries in the accident and is now recovering at Bangkok Hospital Phuket.
