Title: CONCORDE: Uh, I'm-I'm not quite dead, sir. Post by: Shockeye on May 31, 2005, 02:28:12 PM Quote from: Some Site Granny rises to the occasion (http://www.news24.com/News24/Backpage/Offbeat/0,,2-1343-1347_1713768,00.html) Hong Kong - A grandmother in China appeared to return from the dead when she woke as mourners touched her hand to say farewell while she lay in an open coffin at her funeral, a news report said on Tuesday. The family of Zhong Jiaxiang found the old woman apparently dead on the morning of May 23 and, without consulting a doctor, decided to hold a funeral service for her immediately. She was dressed and laid in an open coffin and more than 200 relatives and friends attended her funeral in Xinghsan county, Hubei province, the Hong Kong edition of the China Daily reported. The following morning, however, as people touched her hand to say farewell, she suddenly woke up and startled mourners. Doctors later said she may have appeared dead after lapsing into a temporary coma, the newspaper said. - Sapa-dpa Title: Re: CONCORDE: Uh, I'm-I'm not quite dead, sir.

There's just too much risk of shooting people in the head when you mistake them for the risen dead.
