- Taweechai Elephant Camp Kanchanaburi: Elephant camp just oustside Kanchanaburi, Thailand. This is operated by the local Burmese people who live in the huts shown in the video. In the end you can see me feeding one of the elephants. This was a joke! I was feeding this huge, fully grown elephant tiny bananas and was told by the mahout to only give him one banana at a time. Well, the elephant had another plan, and would not accept just one or even 2 or 3 at a time. At the very end, you can see me putting 4-5 bananas in his trunk...
- Bamboo rafting on River Kwai: Going down the Kwai river in a bamboo raft...
- Erawan Falls: 2nd and 3rd levels of the Erawan Falls. There's also a brief shot of naughty monkeys!
- Death Railway: The "Death Railway" that was constructed by British POW's and local people during the Japanese occupation in World War 2. More than 6,000 men died during its construction. The 1957 movie "Bridge on the River Kwai" is about this railway.
