‘Dead’ teen wakes up on the way to his own funeral

Via Twitter: Kumar Marewad was bitten by a stray dog one month ago and after he came down with a high fever last week, he was rushed to a hospital in Dharwab, Karnataka, India, the Times of India reported.

Kumar’s condition worsened, with an infection from the dog bite spreading throughout his body, and he was put on a ventilator.

Doctors told his family that if he was taken off life support, he wouldn’t survive.

The teen’s family made the decision to bring him home and once they presumed him dead, they quickly made arrangements for his funeral.

“We had decided to take Kumar home after doctors told us his chances of survival were bleak once taken off the ventilator,” Kumar’s brother-in-law Sharanappa Naikar told the news outlet.

On the way to his funeral in Dharwad’s Managundi village — about a mile from where the ceremony was to take place — Kumar suddenly came back to life, opening his eyes, wiggling his hands and legs, and breathing fast, according to the Times of India.

He was quickly rushed to a nearby hospital and put back on a ventilator.

Between China and India there are enough people to create a large enough sample for weird human shit to occur.

Miracle Max: He probably owes you money huh? I'll ask him.

Inigo Montoya: He's dead. He can't talk.

Miracle Max: Whoo-hoo-hoo, look who knows so much. It just so happens that your friend here is only MOSTLY dead. There's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive. With all dead, well, with all dead there's usually only one thing you can do.

Inigo Montoya: What's that?

Miracle Max: Go through his clothes and look for loose change.

Frequently when they, for one reason or another, have to exhume a corpse they will notice scratch marks on the inside of the casket. The poor devil woke up from his coma and tried to scratch his way out of the coffin. Sometimes the fingernails are worn clean off. The Funeral Home/Cemetery Industrial Complex suppresses all news of these happenings. Not much profit in cremations.
