A DAD has been killed in a horrific accident after slicing through his own neck with an angle grinder saw while fixing his house.
Suwan Ladee, 54, was doing DIY work on the property in Samut Prakan province, Thailand, on February 28 when disaster struck.
The father-of-one was standing on scaffolding and reaching above him as he changed wooden beams infested with termites, witnesses said.
But as he did, Suwan tragically slipped, dropping the power tool – which did not have a protective cover around the blade – directly onto his neck.
The circular saw sliced through his throat, cutting down to his chest and spraying blood everywhere.

Suwan then stumbled and fell to the ground in front of horrified pals who had been helping him with the renovation.
His devastated wife Nong, 52, said: “My husband was working with four other people, working all together to fix that house and get rid of the termites.
“I’d just gone into the kitchen to prepare lunch for everyone then heard the problem.
“The saw had hit him then he fell down from the scaffolding.”
