Well, I would have screamed too if this had happened to me!!!
Let's rewind a little bit...
- South Africa
- Man dies at home (sad news)
- Distraught family calls a private undertaker to take the body to the local morgue
- "Corpse" wakes up at the morgue and screams demanding to be taken out of the cold place
- The two mortuary attendants almost have a heart attack and run away scared to death as they thought they were witnessing a ghostly appearance!
Now, this may seem like a made up story, but it happened for real just a couple of days ago.
Imagine the terror of both the presumed death man waking up after 21 hours in the cold cubicle of a morgue, and the poor mortuary attendants who witnessed a dead corpse coming to life!
I'm happy to report that the story has a happy ending and the un-dead man was rescued from the morgue and put in a hospital where, after a few hours, he was deemed fit to return to his home. He had lost consciousness after an asthma attack. His family called a private company rather than the paramedics and the guy was mistakenly diagnosed dead!
Moral of the story... There is a reason why medical professionals go through years of training and hard work... it keeps people out of refrigerators!!!
