A kind fishermen tried to help the Brit, who allegedly became aggressive.
He is said to have yelled 'go and meet with God' while pulling the local into the sea off the coast of Maenam Beach on Koh Samui island.
Panicked cops arrived to drag the man ashore but he stood naked on the beach protesting, saying he wanted to meditate.
An interpreter told him to 'go back to your hotel, shower and then go back to your meditating' but the Brit refused, insisting he just 'wants to relax' and meditate.
Footage captured by locals showing the police bringing the British man ashore, who then spoke to the interpreter.
'Yeah I understand, but this is not really the right time for that. You've got [counting] 12 policemen around you,' the interpreter tells him.
The man replied: 'No, I'm not going back. Let me worry about getting back and let me relax. I'm coming here to go to a wedding.' Officers
