Bhumi JensenBhumi Jensen (Thai: ภูมิ เจนเซ่น, also spelled พุ่ม or Poom) (16 August 1983 - 26 December 2004), was a grandson of King Rama IX of Thailand. He was the son of the king's elder daughter, Princess Ubol Rattana Rajakanya, and her (former) American husband Peter Ladd Jensen. Bhumi Jensen, who was commonly known as Khun (Mr.) Poom, was autistic. His membership in the Thai royal family brought wide attention in Thailand to autism. Despite his father being a foreigner, Jensen was accorded royal status in Thailand. Jensen became a victim of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake, while he and his mother and family were holidaying at the La Flora Resort hotel in Khao Lak, Phang Nga province. He was drowned when the tsunami caused by the earthquake struck the coast of southern Thailand. His body was recovered on the beach the next day. His uncle, the Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn, identified the body and piloted the family back to Bangkok. External links Bhumi Jensen Bhumi Jensen
