A GARDENER has bled to death after slicing off his penis with a grass strimmer.
Praditsin Chuypad, 39, was found with his trousers and legs soaked in blood at a forest park in Thailand.
Officers discovered Praditsin's body on Wednesday, in the Isaan province of Nong Bua Lamphu.
Park manager Waen Visetsakda, 72, told Thai cops that Praditsin was hired by the forest park’s owner to clear the grassy areas.
He started working on Monday and was tasked with completing the work on the day of the incident.
The strimmer blade snapped and accidentally sliced the man's penis, causing a deep wound in his groin area.

The injury affected his arteries, leading to significant blood loss and his death, Thaiger reported.
The strimmer and a broken metal cutting blade were found nearby and retrieved from the scene also covered in blood.
Cops believe the blade was broken upon impact with the man's body.
They added that because the blade was meant to cut through metal – not grass – it probably made the man's injuries a lot worse.

Praditsin's uncle, Narongsak Laketago, 56, told ThaiRath that his nephew specialised in using grass trimmers because he had been familiar with them since childhood.
Naronsak said he warned Praditsin several times about using metal cutting blades but his warnings were ignored.
