A woman from China who returned to Thailand to thank tourism workers who came to her aid after she was pushed off a cliff by her husband – while pregnant – said the death of a good friend’s mother prompted her trip.

Using the alias Wang Nuannuan on Douyin, she told how she had plunged down a 34-metre-high cliff while on holiday in Thailand in June 2019 after her husband shoved her, mainland news outlet The Cover reported.

She suffered 17 broken bones but survived. Sadly, the three-month-old baby she was carrying did not.

Wang returned to the Pha Taem National Park on April 20 to express her gratitude to workers who had joined the rescue team.

“The unexpected death of my good friend’s mother made me reflect on many things. I don’t want to leave regrets. I wanted to visit the people who gave me a helping hand,” Wang said.
