"Dead" man wakes up under autopsy knife

[mistanice]

CARACAS (Reuters) - A Venezuelan man who had been declared dead woke up in the morgue in excruciating pain after medical examiners began their autopsy.

Carlos Camejo, 33, was declared dead after a highway accident and taken to the morgue, where examiners began an autopsy only to realize something was amiss when he started bleeding. They quickly sought to stitch up the incision on his face.


"I woke up because the pain was unbearable," Camejo said, according to a report on Friday in leading local newspaper El Universal.

His grieving wife turned up at the morgue to identify her husband's body only to find him moved into a corridor -- and alive.

Reuters could not immediately reach hospital officials to confirm the events. But Camejo showed the newspaper his facial scar and a document ordering the autopsy.

Something similar happened to my aunt back in the late 50's or early 60's. She was layed out @ my grandmas home for the funeral services when she all of a sudden sat up and asked for water. Good thing back then, they were not embalmed (?) She does however have problems with her hearing and has a speech impaired because of it and other little things.
