An American tourist was caught on tape having a homophobic meltdown outside of a restaurant in Thailand.

Daniel Franckowiak, a plumber and electrician from Bismark, North Dakota, was filmed yelling racist and homophobic slurs and making death threats in front of a crowd of onlookers.

The rant happened earlier this week outside of a restaurant in Chiang Mai. According to witnesses, the outburst was completely unprovoked.

“I kill people, I rape children, I kill f*ggots!” 46-year-old Franckowiak can be seen shouting in the video. “I’m real! I’ll f*cking kill and rape you, too!”
He then goes on to call a woman a “coward ch*nk bitch” and tells another man his skin looks like “the ass of a f*cking cow.”

“I don’t drink,” he raged. “You know why I drink? To f*ck you kooks up. I don’t drink to be happy. I drink to destroy you! You’re going to get destroyed!”

Eventually police arrive at the scene. As he was being arrested, Franckowiak screamed, “Put me on YouTube and make me famous!”

Soooo that’s what they did.

The video was uploaded to YouTube earlier this week, where it was shared and re-shared and re-shared over and over again, as well as reported on by several online media outlets.

Franckowiak was eventually released from police custody after being charged with criminal damage for breaking the window of a business. He is scheduled to appear in court next month.

Watch. Or don’t.
