The bar worker claims the pensioner started to shout at her when she was on her shift at the Lanon Bar at around 3am after she turned down his offer to share a drink.
CCTV then captured the moment the pair start to fight as the woman can be seen grabbing his face.
The OAP then gets to his feet and repeatedly appears to smash his fist into her mouth in front of horrified guests.
The bar brawl continues as the pair scuffle across the lively establishment in Pattaya - known as Thailand's "Sin City".

Footage shows the local Thai worker hurling a glass at the Brit's face before he apparently swings at her with a right hook.
The contact left her staggering backwards as a male customer jumped in to try and break up the fight.
He pushed the Brit away but caused him to fall onto the pavement outside the bar onto his right arm.
A Thai man then rushed to the Brit's side to protect him from a pile-on of incoming customers at the bar.
Medics arrived shortly after as the tourist had broken his arm.

But as they went to help him up to his feet he reportedly flipped off dozens of onlookers with his middle finger.
He was later taken to a hospital to be treated.
A Pattaya City Police spokesman said: "The CCTV clearly captured the incident, and our officers have collected the footage to include in the case file to ensure a fair investigation for everyone involved."
The bar worker told cops: "He gave me a drink and wanted me to entertain him, but I had to look after the other customers.
"He was upset and started shouting at me and punched me in the face.
"Other customers stepped in and pulled him away. That's when he fell and was injured."
Pattaya is known as a Brit holiday hotspot despite it gaining a dark reputation for holidaymakers.
Back in April, British tourists were caught fighting locals in a horrific road rage brawl outside a convenience store.
The holidaymakers reportedly downed cans of beer and had a woman with them before returning to their hotel.
While driving, they reportedly clipped a food delivery rider, 44, before hurling a bag of rubbish at his two-wheeler, sparking a road rage fight in front of the 7-Eleven store.
When the men began exchanging blows, other locals joined the fray, forcing the tourists to retreat into the supermarket.

Brit 'tried to drown' daughter-in-law on family holiday after row over will
Jasmine Wyld, 33, is said to have been locked in a violent row with father-in-law Mark Gibbon, 62, about his will during a luxury holiday near Disney World in Florida This is the first picture of the young British hairdresser whose father-in-law allegedly attempted to drown her in a swimming pool near Disney World in Florida. Jasmine Wyld, 33, reportedly feared for her life after it is said she became involved in a furious argument with Mark Gibbon, 62, regarding his will during a luxury holiday break. It is alleged Gibbon, who operates a film and television lighting business Ultralight in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, shoved and forced Ms Wyld's head beneath the water in the pool on multiple occasions. Local law enforcement said in a statement: "Because Mr Gibbon couldn't control his anger, he may find himself spending a lot more time in Florida than he had anticipated." He has now been charged with attempted second-degree murder and battery by police in the US, where the family had been residing at a rental property at the Solterra Resort in Davenport, Florida. The grandfather is being detained at Polk County Jail. Ms Wyld has two children with Gibbon's son, Alex, who had previously been employed alongside his father at the film and television lighting business. He stepped down as director in April 2023, reports the Mirror. Gibbon Snr has subsequently rebranded the company as MRG Lighting. He is registered as the sole director. Facebook photographs show Ms Wyld, a hairdresser from Buckinghamshire, beaming alongside Alex and their two children. Companies House records reveal she was formerly a director of Jasmine Elizabeth Hair, but the business was dissolved "via a voluntary strike off" in April 2024. When approached by the Daily Mail on Wednesday, Ms Wyld reportedly refused to comment about her father-in-law's arrest. Police had rushed to reports of a disturbance in a back-garden swimming pool at approximately 5.20pm local time at the Solterra Resort on Sunday. According to the Polk County Sheriff's Office, Gibbon had become embroiled in a row with Ms Wyld regarding the "stipulations of his will". Deputies recorded: "She advised that she could not breathe and believed that she was going to drown. [The victim] advised that she had to fight Mark in order to get away from him and from under the water but he kept pushing her back under." MRG Lighting, which belongs to Gibbon, has previously carried out work on television and film productions, as well as on music videos for artists including Paloma Faith. The father, from Beaconsfield, is also registered as the sole director of Sage Hairdressing. Gibbon and his daughter-in-law had been consuming alcohol prior to the confrontation, reports Law and Crime. Ms Wyld's nine year old daughter leapt into the pool in an attempt to halt the incident, police revealed. Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd commented: "It's great that Polk County draws visitors from all across the world, but we expect vacationers to behave while they visit with us, just as we expect our lifelong residents to do the same. Because Mr Gibbon couldn't control his anger, he may find himself spending a lot more time in Florida than he had anticipated."

Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 Irish fashion designer Martha Nolan has been found dead on a boat Credit: Social Media Collect 6 Cops were called to the Montauk Yacht Club, in New York, in the early hours of Tuesday Credit: NYP/Dennis A. Clark 6 Influencers and celebrities often flock to the area, known as The Hamptons Cops were called to the Montauk Yacht Club, in New York, in the early hours of Tuesday. A 911 call was made by a man at around midnight 'reporting a woman unconscious on a boat', a statement from the Suffolk County Police Department said. They added: 'Good Samaritans attempted to perform CPR on the woman.' However, police said Martha was 'pronounced dead on the boat by first responders'. Officers said earlier: 'The preliminary investigation and exam were inconclusive regarding the cause of death, which will be determined by an autopsy.' In a later update, Suffolk County Police Department said an autopsy had been conducted and that it "did not show evidence of violence and her final cause of death is pending further examination". Boaters in the area told how they heard screams coming from the yacht, named Ripple, when Carlow native Martha's body was found. And a member of the exclusive Long Island yacht club said the vessel's owner roared 'that's my girlfriend' as he begged for help. Homicide detectives are among the law enforcement agencies involved in the investigation. Martha, the founder of fashion label East x East, regularly posted about her luxury lifestyle on social media, including videos travelling on private jets and helicopters. 'LOVELY WOMAN' And an Irish pal said friends are devastated by her shock death. He told The Irish Sun: 'She was a lovely woman, very driven to be successful in business. 'I hadn't seen her in a few years since moving home from the US but she was living a very glamorous lifestyle in New York. 'She was clever and knew what she was doing with her posts on social media. She knew what she wanted and was committed to attainting it. It's very sad.' 'DEVASTATING LOSS' The Department of Foreign Affairs is aware of the case and is providing consular assistance. And Taoiseach Micheal Martin said the death is an 'absolutely devastating blow for the family', calling Martha 'a young, beautiful, very talented, creative woman'. The Fianna Fail leader added: 'Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. We can't comment any further other than to say it's a devastating loss for the family and the community in Carlow.' Carlow Sinn Fein councillor Jim Deane told how 'people are just shocked at the news locally'. 'ALWAYS SMILING' He added: 'It's such a sad thing to hear that a young vibrant woman who had the world at her feet has died.' FF councillor Andrea Dalton added: 'I know the community of Carlow will rally around Martha's family at this difficult time.' A member of the Montauk Yacht Club remembered Martha fondly. They said: 'She was well known in the community. She was very friendly. Always smiling.' BUSINESS PARTNER'S TRIBUTE Business partner Dylan Grace tonight paid a heartbreaking Instagram tribute to Martha. He wrote: 'We dreamed big together, laughed harder than anyone else could understand, and built so much from nothing. "I'm truly blessed and grateful to have had you in my life. "Love you so much Mar. Fly high girl." Influencers and celebrities often flock to the area, especially in the summer months. CELEB HAUNT The Montauk Yacht Club offers a number of rooms, which can cost around $1,500 in the summer. It also boasts high-end restaurants and Montauk's only padel courts. A spokesperson said they are 'are saddened to learn of the tragic incident that took place'. They added: 'Our team is co-operating with law enforcement in their ongoing investigation and remains committed to the safety and well-being of our guests and staff.' GLAM LIFESTYLE Tragic Martha, a self-professed entrepreneur and brand growth consultant, was living a glamorous lifestyle in New York. She took rides on helicopters and private jets, videos posted on her TikTok account reveal. She took a Falcon jet to Nashville with pals for a concert in 2021, telling of her '#milehighclub' life in the captions. And a clip from last year gave an insight into a luxury hol to the Caribbean island of Saint Barts. FASHION BRAND SUCCESS Her fashion brand, East x East, has been trading almost four years, according to her LinkedIn profile. And just weeks before her death, she reflected on the fashion brand's success. She showed off the pop-up shop that she had launched in Montauk, adding: 'Goals Achieved.' In the video, her final TikTok post, she showed off clothing that was neatly hung on rails. FINAL POST Martha, who got a degree and a master's from UCD, was also the founder of Duper, an affordable unisex fashion brand. Last year she spoke to The Irish Independent about life in New York, describing herself as 'a small town girl who needed to get out to achieve her big dreams'. She said: 'I always knew I wanted to be successful, that I was money driven, business driven and that fashion is a tough industry and it would be a slow road. 'I made friends in the institute and at college and a new group in New York, but I still have all my Carlow friends. They are still my crew. After gaining experience in the industry, my entrepreneurial spirit and passion for fashion led me to launch my own ventures. 'PASSION FOR FASHION' 'East x East is my resortwear brand, borne out of a desire to merge my love for travel with my marketing expertise.' In the chat, Martha describes life in New York as a 'whirlwind of activity'. She said: 'Sometimes I have to work very late, as I could be chatting to manufacturers at all hours. 'I travel a lot, I take the time to play hard as well as work hard but work is constantly on my mind. 'I drink alcohol but also in moderation. I honestly think people in New York drink more than Ireland, that was one of the culture shocks I got. Back home no one has money to go out — people here drop $150 without a thought.' She added: 'I love Carlow, I miss it so much, but now that I work for myself I can go home for a month and my parents and my friends are always coming out to see me.' 6 Police are still trying to figure out how Martha, 33, died Credit: Social Media Collect 6 The preliminary examination into the cause of her death was 'inconclusive' Credit: Social Media Collect

British man charged with attempted drowning of daughter-in-law on US holiday
A British man has been charged by US police with the attempted murder of his daughter-in-law after allegedly trying to drown her in a swimming pool while on holiday, local authorities said. Mark Raymond Gibbon, 62, of Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, allegedly tried to drown the 33-year-old woman after they argued about his grandchildren in their rental home at the Solterra Resort in Davenport, Florida, on Sunday, Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said on X. Officers had responded to reports of a disturbance in a back-yard swimming pool at around 5.20pm local time. Gibbon allegedly pushed and held the victim's head under water multiple times which prevented her from breathing, Mr Judd said. He allegedly only stopped after holidaymakers next door said they had called the sheriff's office, while the victim's nine-year-old daughter jumped into the pool to try to stop the incident, the sheriff said. Gibbon was arrested and taken to Polk County Jail before he was charged with attempted second-degree murder and battery, Mr Judd said. The sheriff said in a statement: 'It's great that Polk County draws visitors from all across the world, but we expect vacationers to behave while they visit with us, just as we expect our lifelong residents to do the same. 'Because Mr Gibbon couldn't control his anger, he may find himself spending a lot more time in Florida than he had anticipated.'
