I've been working with some of these amulets a few years now. The feeling and what they add to your life is really wonderful if handled respectfully and properly. thanks for posting this, I want to visit both of those markets.

Your "old school" Bangkok content is the best on RU-vid. Keep it up!

This is a very interesting vlog. It's quite amazing to know theres so many different items available & for the reasons why. It would seem many Thai people still believe after so many years. Excellent Pete & Noon.

Very cool Pete and Noom , I love that stuff. And great mix into your Chanel 👍🏿🙏✌🏽

Super interesting vlog, Pete and Nune!

Outstanding vlog as always the content is different and interesting take care stay safe mate 👍

Good man Pete. Great video 👏. Over in Phuket meself in a couple of weeks, fingers crossed. Take care and regards to Noone

Another fascinating video man. I've watched a bunch of these now today and they never get boring. So refreshing to get a real take on proper Thai life and culture. Loving Nune's Dub accent and expressions 'like' 😂. Saw some of this stuff for sane on the street in Yaowarat near the flower market one time but had no Thai to ask the right questions. Can you see if you can dig out anything on 'alternative arty community stuff' at all. Like in Yangon, Myanmar there is a very cool group of punk musicians who used to help feed the street dwellers one day each month and they had they'd own subculture scene going on. Ar aghiadh leat a chara 😀

Super enjoyable Pete and Nune. I can't understand why you don't have more subs. There's a glitch in the RU-vid algorithm for sure!! Keep it up

Hey Pete, really enjoyed this one. I also enjoyed those guys with their beers! Some more old school BKK content would be awesome! Good luck, and thanks for the videos!

Awesome video informative. Keep coming

Really interesting content. Please do more videos about the amulet markets.

What a interesting vlog Pete and Nune . My wife’s uncle explained to me about the meaning of them and how some are more valuable than others. The belief people have in them is unquestionably and in the same way that some people wear a crucifix or other religious item for comfort in life. Really different and good vlog . Well done Nune on getting and explaining the information for the vlog 👏👏

Well done pete thinking outside the box , all the youtubers in thailand havent seen any vlog about amulets and history etc maybe not sexy enough , this was very intresting about culture and general thai belief ,10 out of 10

Great video as I've always been curious about the amulets sold every where in Thailand, I was surprised there weren't any giant wooden phallus like I saw once in Hatyai in a shop. I thought it was very funny hpw giant it was 😀. Thank you to your wife for unlocking all the mysteries for the viewers 👍!

The only ammulet I have is on given to me by the monk in Wat Poo and I will never sell it. It gives me good luck ever since.

Thanks for this. Learnt something. I didn't know the story about this baby amulet.

Good video Pete. You’re getting better and better making new video. Thais pay huge amounts for the rare one I got a few from old Thais and got big offers to sell them. They seem to appreciate in value

Very interesting! Haven't seen many videos like these on you tube.

Good work Pete! I'm adding this to my list.But do you know where the nearest MRT or SKYTRAIN is located in relation to this area?

Interesting stuff mate. I have a few little things I keep myself but would only ever buy in a temple... Watched this in Father Ted's Irish bar, Hua Hin 😊

Good video. I have a couple which I bought on a trip to Bangkok in 2001. I paid a bit of money at the time. Could be foreigner price but I was told one was super old and rare. Really interesting content.

Really interesting, Nune is getting a wee bit of an Irish accent, love it, Really enjoy your stories keep up the good work it’s never boring

Great vlog. What do you know about TONG? Maybe Nune can share some insight. Thankyou

Interesting video

Great video Pete . Wow very interesting that Thai police like to wear the Amulets to protect them from bullets..maybe that's why the Wig Wanger wore a shit load of amulets around his neck 😳🙄

Thank you guys, interesting stuff! Where is this market located?

Thank you for your hard works, and sharing this fantastic video. May I know where is this amulet market located ?

Excellent, very informative vlog Pete. You mentioned the famous amulet with relation to an unborn childs foetus, well, as im sure you may know, a similar superstition exists in Irish folklore, when fishermen, especially, would take with them the Caul of a new born baby, an amniotic sac or membrane which detaches itself from the childs head, to sea to ward off death & destruction!!!!! Theres a referance to this in the Christy Moore song, ''16 Fishermen Raving'!!!! I know Chatuchak market very well from back in the day. Very interesting market indeed!!!!' Keep up the great work, stay safe both, god bless, chok dee, slainte mo currah!!!

I've got the guy at 10:27 in beat!! I'm 55 and have exercised twice in my entire life🤣🤣🤣 Great vlog Pete

Great video.Few years ago I purchase something similar.occasionally I'd ask it for help sometimes financially,sometimes for more work and small favors.Everytime it would come through for me in amazing baffling ways.Sometimes within minutes

Very interesting content 👍🇸🇪

Great vlog Pete 5k by Christmas for sure.

Niceeeee. No idea of this kind of things in Bangkok

Nice to see you Chuckie

Hi, do you know what amulet did King Chulalongkorn give to his soldiers for battle? Pretty interested to know lol

Congrats on 4k

Nice vid mate.. I filmed in the old amulet market - 90% of people were fine but some weren't too happy being filmed.... as there are gangsters but also a lot of fakes about too.

The real kumatong, it is very dangerous to keeps inside the house. They’ll kill your kids or whenever you leave them alone and disrespect.

like this vdo alot

Let me explain my friend, as I'm one of the Thai guy who like to collect those amulet. Especially In Thailand 99.99% of the collector is a man because there are too many strict rules for woman about amulet since the ancient time. 1. Those kids sculpture called "Ku marn thong" and those sculptures are not a child. They just do the ceremony that they believed that passed from generation to generation and what they did just do the ceremony to pass the spirit of the dead child to the sculpture. What they must do(from the ancient time) is find the dead child that still not born from the dead woman and grill before the the sunrise and then do the ceremony but that's what the ancient people believe and did. Nowadays(since before our generation) they couldn't do that anymore because that's not a normal thing you could do anymore if you don't want to go to jail, so how they make Kuman Thong is up to the maker and the most famous ceremony they brought the soil from 7 most haunted tombs and mix together and Rak sorn wood or wood from Mayom tree then do the ceremony they believed to send the spiritual of the kid from the tomb to stay in those doll. The most famous Kuman Thong are from "LP Tae" and there are limited edition and that's what the collector want to own, the price now is over a million baht(us$30,000++) I mean much more than a million because this price is the offered price from the collector in the market. So all of these things in this video are copied. The price of the copied one just about 30-50 baht($1-$2 usd) or less and when they told you those are from the temple is just the same story from them and they never change the story, if you want to see the real amulet you probably go to Pantip or even in the real amulet auctions. And you'll find it really funny because it's not even close to the real one, those fake amulet too. 2. Rama 5 is not the one who made the people believe in amulet, people beleive and wear amulet since the ancient time, Rama 5 just gave the limited edition one to those soldier. Just like the amulet called "pra ruang rang pune" that you pointed in the video, they're not from "Sukothai" they're from "Srisatchanalai" "Sawankalok" and it's more than 800 years old. And for sure that is a fake one and the seller doesn't even know about this amulet too, the real one worth more than 200,000-1,000,000 baht(usd$10,000-$30,000++)it's the same as the second one but I think I wrote too long Hahaha. But one thing I have to say is if you want to see the real amulet just go to the real market for the real amulet, you'll never find a real amulet in Chatochak, those things are just like a souvenir and most of them worth just $0.10-$0.20 each from the wholeseller and if you buy a lot it's probably cheaper. It's just like if you want to see the real pieces of diamond necklace of the queen of england you cannot find them in the flea market.

Dont mess with this stuff if you dont know anything about it. It can back fire on you if you dont know how to take care of it. It could result in bad luck or death even

I'd be very sceptical of all of that but wary none the less. Loving Somchai McGregor flexing the guns. 😄

Ya gotta love the Irish accent "Protect from bollocks" @09:19 😂😂😂

I follow your channel from this vdo. Thai amulet is famous and many countries and many Asian people interesting about this, Thai amulet can export to many countries such as China/Taiwan/Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore,...

I may be visiting Thailand in a month or so and do podcasts and videos on the occult/esoteric traditions of the world. How do I get here? Thanks mate :)

I have never seen a Thai woman with an Irish accent before. Very unique 🙏

An amulet for everything :-) I wonder which amulet(s) Joe Ferrari uses ?

Hitchcock stuff.. interesting.

I’m surprised they told you about this black magic. Us Khmers do the same thing also. To any future travelers who wants to buy this type of stuff, DONT!

Nice to see this interesting place with Amulets, but i think, We as Europeans don’t understand it and not believe in it, but do respect it all. 🙏

In the eastern world, we have kumanthong, in the western world, Annabelle.

I’m not into magic but would not like to mess around with that! This could have been an Halloween special, eheh. Shout out to Nune for the help! :)

Great video Pete . Somewhere in Bangkok is a lady that sells imaginary children . There rather large dolls . I ve searched but never found the place , you living down there may have better luck than I did ....

isnt a st christopher a lucky amulet for travellers or a st winifred patron st virgins etc etc

hi can i have the name of this market? thanks

Thai/Khmer occult practises are very common in most Asean countries.

I’m from Thailand

Some spooky stuff. Wouldn't want to encourage bad karma 😉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🙏🇹🇭

Word up

First time I went to thailand was in pattaya sleeping in guest house 3 am on morning something pulled on my little toe in woke up freaked heard a small boy laughing,then heard little footsteps running in hallway obvious I never saw anything . next morning met with girl I was our with night before I told her what happened her face dropped she said it was lake gnome or kuman tong then showed me on different places people s shrines,this was my first introduction to spirits in thailand,since then have been 6 times and have come across many many encounters and have been given many somdets and amulets.100%real I am now a follower of Jesus the Christ and plan to return again to return all amulets to proper ground 😇

in south east asian nation in general those kind of sorcery is common.not limited to Thai/Khmer,even Muslim nation like Malaysia and Indonesia has practice those kind of.if someone believe in spiritual world will look on Asean nations about black magic.anyway good content,mate.keep it up

This Vietnamese girl went to Thailand and got like 6 kumantong spirit doll and brought them back to vn, she talks to them like they’re real baby she buys them soft drinks milk snacks. But one day she just jump down from floor 20 and pass away. I don’t know but bringing baby spirit into your home is not safe and she got like 6 7 doll. You never know they might want to have their human mama all to theirs so the made her jump down so she can be with them. They probably didn’t want their mama to have a husband and have her own kids.

Can protect from missile ?

Did you see the leprechauns at 10.9 even the wee folk are over in Thailand these days?

Just looks like normal tourist kitsch

สามง่าม เก๊ ยกตู้ เพิล😊

ให้แฟนพาไปหาเณรแอ ครับ ของจริงเลย

Do you need any help like love spell to bring your ex back , win case in court , ex wife back , ex husband back , money spell , pregnancy spell , remove depression, job spell , sickness spell ( cure to any sickness ) do you want to be the best in all you do?

A bit like every country in the world. This is not news.

I hope you don't believe some of that stuff on what you were told. Your girlfriend should know what is true or not. I really did not like or I also do not believe. I will give you a like, but I really did not like this video, to much BS on what was said. This is only my own opinion.

This is all facts … I have a lot of amulets and I’m Laos btw
