A security guard saw a 60-year-old European man walking in an abandoned high-rise tower and was told to stop trying to kill him early on Thursday night.

Wacharapol Khatti, a 43- year- ancient watch at the Waterfront personal project, said he heard footsteps on steel sheets in the building around 1.30am. The old gentleman was seen walking on the second floor when he pointed his flashlight at the source of the noise.

Mr. Wacharapol yelled at the guy and inquired what he was doing. The person responded that he had a death plan.

The man was able to persuade the guard to call off his depressive attempt, but he was unable to get any steps to take him back to the ground.

Authorities later&nbsp, arrived and spent about 30 hours convincing him to leave the area. He appeared to be crazy.
