FULL STORY:  Imagine how annoyed this guy must have been when he found out WHY no one came to save him.

A 22-year-old man in northern Thailand fell 40 feet down an abandoned well last month and survived, but couldn’t get out.  So he started screaming for help, but no one came.

The well is in a remote forest, but there’s a small village nearby where people SHOULD have been able to hear him.  So why didn’t they come? 

It turned out several people in the village did hear him, but didn’t investigate because they assumed he was a GHOST.  They thought the forest was haunted.

He was stuck in the well for THREE DAYS before cops driving by heard his screams.  He told them he’d only been yelling once an hour to conserve energy.  So it’s lucky they were driving by just then.

It took 30 minutes for rescuers to get him out.  He was covered in bruises, had a closed-head injury, and a broken wrist.  They’re sealing up the well to make sure no one else falls in.

By the way, a poll this year found 61% of Americans believe in ghosts.  So don’t think it couldn’t happen here.
