In Thailand, a woman trapped in her own toilet for as many as three days was recently freed. The woman reportedly wrote her will on the wall with lipstick, after giving up on any chances of being freed. The incident was reported from Bangkok, Thailand and the woman in question was identified to be 54 years old.
According to reports, the woman was trapped in her own bathroom connected with the bedroom of her house where she resided alone. Captain Charnchai, who was involved in the woman’s rescue mission, stated that it took the authorities about an hour to finally unlock the bathroom. When they were finally able to break through to the other side, they found her to be completely exhausted, with her will written on the bathroom walls.
The police said that the woman used her bathroom earlier on August 22, Monday, and found that the door of her bathroom got jammed. As she didn’t have her phone with her, she couldn’t reach out to anyone. Further, her home had secured steel gates, and hence, her cries of help remained unheard.
For three days, the woman survived on tap water and by every passing hour, entertained the certainty of her eventual demise with more intensity.
The Facts of the Matter
Every time one’s bathroom door jams, there’s a moment of internal contemplation where they think – ‘What if I’m stuck here forever?’.
Recently, a Thai woman in Bangkok met her worst fear when she was stuck inside her own bathroom. She was eventually rescued after three days of being stuck in the bathroom and officers found that she had practically given up hopes of being rescued. To that extent, she went on to write her will on the bathroom wall with a lipstick.

How the Woman Got Stuck in her Bathroom
The 54-year-old woman had reportedly used her bathroom to take a shower earlier on August 22. After she was done with taking shower, she tried to open the door, and found it to be completely jammed. For the next few hours, she shouted and cried for help.
