Measure twice, cut your corpse once

    South Carolina funeral home has its license suspended after sawing the legs off a 6-foot-7 corpse to make it fit in the casket. Naturally, the undertaker just chucked the legs in the coffin alongside the body. I suppose he hated to waste good legs.
    Couldn't they just have gotten a bigger casket? Or cut out little foot holes in the end of it?

    I especially enjoyed the line about the "suspected truncation."

    I thought the secret to this trick was that there are fake legs sticking out on the other end. The Amazing Kreskin this guy aint.

    No.

    They didn't eat the legs.
