Thailand is a mystical place, and even that might be putting it lightly. As a nation, they aren't exactly viewed as being amongst the 'first world' countries out there, but in a lot of ways, they don't really try to be.

They're more focused on creating experiences that will last a lifetime for travelers from around the globe. Having an impact like that is rare as a tourist destination in that part of the world, but somehow, they've managed it.

One of the big attractions, especially for younger people, is the allure of the traditional Full Moon Party. We say traditional, but in reality, everyone just gets absolutely off their rocker drunk - and we'd like to try and document the mayhem here today.

20 Together Like Sardines

Some people like the sensation of not being able to move a muscle and others would prefer a little bit of space. It's all about personal preference, really, but either way, this looks more like a collection of sardines ready to jump out to sea than anything else.

19 What Planet Are We On?

The smeared face paint and the "we don't even know our own name" look certainly seems to tell us a lot about this image. Without psychoanalyzing it too much, we'd say these ladies are going to wake up with a particularly sore head in the morning.

18 Stand Out From The Crowd

You've got to give brownie points for trying, and to say that this girl tried would be a dramatic understatement. She is quite clearly living her best life with this look, and fair play to her for that. Whether or not it got smudged later in the evening remains to be seen.

17 Talent Beyond Belief

We can't even reach our toes and this chick is pulling off stunts like this. The mind truly does boggle, and it makes us wonder where it all went wrong. Still, this looks fairly dangerous, so we're going to leave it to the professionals (if there is such a thing).

16 How Low Can You Go?

If you're going to try and do the limbo under circumstances such as these, then you probably don't want to be too drunk when you do it. Either way, trying not to set fire to yourself, we'd imagine, would be the first big step towards success.

15 Even The Hats Are Trippy

The non-PG hats are the ones found slightly below, but from the insane color scheme to the mushrooms, we're trying to picture what it'd be like to be high as a kite whilst looking at one of these things. Just imagine trying to explain that to your kids in the years to come, too.

14 Hugs & Booze For All

Via: Instagram

These little buckets are fairly popular when you head on over to a Full Moon Party, and it's not exactly hard to understand why. We may not be particularly keen on the free hug from a complete stranger, but we'll just see where the booze and the sense of freedom take us.

13 An Eye From The Sky

You could probably be fooled into thinking that you've been transported to Cabo or Cancun in this shot, and we'd completely understand the logic behind that. While the party may take place at night, we won't stop you from getting things started early.

12 New Threads Who Dis?

The traditional vest and subtle face paint look is one that a lot of guys and girls go with, mainly if they don't want to go too over the top with their look. One thing is for sure: if they don't look ten times worse 12 hours on from this being taken, then they haven't done the Full Moon justice.

11 Sleep When You Can

A sleep area to try and catch up on some hours is always a good idea, especially if you've been partying fairly non-stop for hours on end. Nobody is invincible, no matter how much they claim to be, so you may as well have a snooze and then get ready to start it all over again.

10 Squad Out In Force

These people may all know each other or they might not know one another at all, and that's the thrill of it. The chaos of a Full Moon Party includes finding out so much about yourself, and perhaps even more interestingly, finding out stuff about other people.

9 Glow In The Dark

Pro wrestling fans will be getting some serious Darby Allin vibes here, but aside from that, it's just a really cool look this guy is going for. We aren't sure whether or not he's actually having a good time, but either way, we're digging it.

8 The Ring Of Fire

Don't think, just do. That should be the motto (most of the time) for a party of this magnitude, and that's the route this gentleman has decided to go down. Whether or not he caught fire like the man earlier on in the piece remains to be seen.

7 Ready For Anything

It's not the most imaginative look we've ever seen, and he kind of looks like he's about to engage in a game of tennis, but perhaps that's the point in some strange, strange way. He looks like a dude we'd all enjoy having a beer with, so keep on keeping on.

6 Clean Up Crew

The morning after is never a pretty sight, but this quite literally resembles the entrance gate to down under. The utter chaos that must have gone down the night prior would put most clubs out of business. Oh, and check out the guy in the background making his move. Smooth.

5 Light Up The Night

They truly do love their fire over there for these parties, and you know what? We kind of love it, too. It's all a little bit messy and a little bit chaotic, but so are a lot of things in the party scene. Let's just hope the wind doesn't take it and cause even more chaos.

4 Embrace The Chaos

Via: World Nomads

Speaking of chaos, we have absolutely no idea what's happening here and we love it. Everyone loves a good performance especially once they get a little bit tipsy, and this sort of show is bound to make a lot of people happy.

3 Forgetting Your Own Name

First of all, how did they get up there, second of all, how do they plan on getting down?

The only rule seems to be that there are no rules, and that's something we can all get on board with.

Just try and make sure you don't break your leg upon landing.

2 The Festival Atmosphere

Via: Home Is Where Your Bag Is

You've got the flags out in force, great music and plenty of alcohol to go around - as well as a few fun stalls, too. There will be stuff to do here right up to 5 am and beyond, and that's what we call a party - or, you know, a festival without the extortionate entry fees and bands.

1 Rhythm Is A Dancer

This dude has been taken by the music, and probably a few other substances, and he offers absolutely no apologies for that whatsoever. Sure, he may not remember a single minute of it the next day, but at least the footage will live on for years to come.
