A British man had a lucky escape following a fall at a waterfall on Koh Samui.

Gerard Greenhoff, had been missing for three days, when a local man discovered a motorbike parked near a footpath that lead down to the Khun Sri Falls.

The bike was reported to police who checked the licence plate and found that it had been rented to a man reported missing.

Several hours later, Mr. Greenhoff was located by the side of a stream, in a state of exhaustion. He had not eaten in three days but had managed to drink water from the stream. He had also suffered a broken leg during the fall.

Medics arrives and placed him on a stretcher, inserted a drip and carried him up the steep incline at the remote location.

The rescue operation took over two hours before the victim was taken to hospital.

Doctors described his condition as serious but he is responding well to treatment. Police said had it not been for the discovery of his motorbike, he would almost certainly have died.

It is unclear where in the UK Mr. Greenhoff is from.
