Dead like me?

    Wow. Is this scarier than having surgery performed and the anesthesia not working?

    "Dead" man wakes up under autopsy knife
    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.

    It's probably better, though, than being woken up by the dull sound of dirt falling on the wooden box you're laying in.

    Sorry, sir.

    And, yeah. I'd say that's pretty terrifying. That's probably as close to death as you're going to get without, you know, actually dying.
