I Went to Thailand in a B-24 Liberator in 1945 - the REAL River 'Kwai' Bridge Story 

Wow. The detail of the video and the edit is amazing. Thx for a really good video.

Agreed with Dann. Well done Jimmy. You deserve an Emmy👏👍

That was a clever idea well executed Jimmy. Loved the pilot’s perspective. Who can imagine the suffering endured in the construction of that railway. Hellfire Pass can be nightmarishly hot just taking a casual, tourist stroll along a section of it.

Cracking, Jim. Really interesting and up there with anything Bangkok Pat has done.

Best vdo yet. Entertaining .

Very interesting video, kha. ❤ Thank you for sharing this video ❤

Nice work, been there, cant help the sad, depressing feeling you get there, and all for what? By the way nobody ever mentions the other film, "The Railway man" (2013) also well worth a watch.

I don't think the renaming of that section had anything to do with the movie. It's true that the Frenchman got the name of the river wrong. The railway ran through the Kwae Noi valley, and he must have thought that was the name of the river. And he misstranslated "Kwae" as "Kwai" which means buffalo. The renaming of the upper section of the Mae Klong in the 1960s to "Kwae Yai" (big tributary) was probably to differentiate it from the lower section, "Kwae Noi" (little tributary). If it was named after the movie, the name would be "Mae Nam Kwai".

Those French, they are never good with the details 😂. Bridge 277 the bride that connects Burma to Thailand 🌉. The picture after they bombed the bridge from the bomber was pretty epic
