[quote]Cemetery workers raced to a newly-dug grave after they heard banging and muffled shouting an hour after a 45-year-old woman was buried.
As they grabbed tools and anything they could find, they rushed to dig the grave up again after the woman woke up to find herself buried alive in a coffin.
But tragically, the un-named woman died before her would-be rescuers could reach her inside the plot at a cemetery near Greece’s Thessaloniki.
Now police are probing why the woman was pronounced dead by doctors treating her for cancer, only to be found alive.
Her grieving family arranged her funeral at the graveyard in Peraia, a small town 16 miles south of Thessaloniki, Greece’s main city in the north.
Shortly after the last relatives left the cemetery on Thursday, residents and a group of children playing outside reportedly heard a female voice shouting for help from inside the grave.
They called the police, and began digging up the grave to save her but she had suffocated to death inside the coffin, it was reported.
However, a doctor who was at the scene and examined the woman’s body, said she had been dead for hours and could not have been revived.
Dr Chrissi Matsikoudi told Greek TV channel MEGA: "I just don’t believe it. We did several tests including one for heart failure on the body.
"It would have been impossible for someone in a state of rigor mortis to have been shouting and hitting the coffin like that.”
A coroner is expected to examine the body.
Meanwhile, relatives of the dead woman say they are considering filing a complaint against the doctors responsible for her treatment at the cancer clinic.[/quote]
Well theres my worst fears realized.
Have a great day facepunch!
I still wonder how this happens. Unless she was a zombie
Time to turn off the computer and go outside for a bit.
One of the worst fears you could ever have as a family member. One last chance for the person to live; when the last thing you expect is for them be alive while being buried. Being given that chance to see them one last time, and knowing they actually died this time when they could have possibly lived longer. Life can be a tad too tragic.
I'll never forget that FP'er who wrote in a thread with a similar premise to this one, he wrote about this one guy who was buried alive and thought to be dead. It was a small town and someone decided to dig up the grave for some reason he said; they found the guys skeleton sitting up against the wall in the corner. Just sitting there.

You do know about embalming, right?
I am sorry but normally after you die and are going be buried all your blood has been drained via embalming aka you are completely dead.

Its such a slim chance that this will happen in a first world country its almost pointless.

Probably incompetence on the part of the physicians; it smacks of a cover up to me because there's no way somebody in a state of rigor mortis would come back to life. They probably mistook a coma or something similar for actual death without proper checking - which involves shining a torch into the pupils to check for pupillary activity; fixed and dilated pupils associated with no breathing or heart sounds is almost a sure sign of death. Even if none of the obvious signs of brain death are present, at least an EEG would be warranted to make sure no mistakes are made, though this is often dispensed with in many setups.

"Says here you was buried in June."
"Yes, yes! Now help me out of here!"
The gravekeeper brushes the autumn leaves over the tube and clips the bell wire.
"Sorry ma'am, but it's October. Whatever you is, you ain't comin' back up."
Just to ease you all into the Hallowed month of terror.
But still, I cannot imagine the horrors of being buried alive. Thinking you had cheated death, only for you to realise that you'll suffocate shortly and suffer the utter annihilation of your soul that you longed to avoid.
Bury me with a phone and all should be swell. :v:
IIRC you still have reception when you are buried.
Awful, imagine being trapped in a box with absolutely no light. You can't see a single thing and you start to go dizzy from lack of oxygen. This has to be one of the worst ways to die
I think I'll be cremated instead
This reminds me of the story about someone who had recently buried a relative and was having nightmares involving said relative. After a few days they had the relative dug up and found the body's fingers were bloody and the coffin lid had deep scratches on the inside.
Creepy.

imagine being ashes tho
Read the article. They dug her up and found out that she had been dead for much longer already. Rigor mortis and everything.
The scary part is she was cremated first.

embalming is less common than you think, typically only done when its expected to be a week+ before the body is buried or a lot of traveling is involved.
only 30 more of these and we'll have an outbreak on our hands
I wonder how much time did it past from pronouncing her dead to being buried ?
cremation all the way.
fuck burial.

he agrees.
[QUOTE=TheRealRudy;46123881]Too bad this happens in the modern world.[/QUOTE]
only if they don't embalm you, on the embalming table they would have noticed that she was alive
That's not so much cremation as liquification.

Imagine walking down the graveyard at night when one by one all the bells start ringing...

Seriously, is that really a difficult thing to do?
[QUOTE=GamerKiwi;46124308]Seriously, is that really a difficult thing to do?[/QUOTE]
It should be a human right to be buried with those implements.
wait, so she went through the whole embalming process alive?
Or was the embalming thing not done at all in her case for some reason?

keep saying that when the zombies begin to abuse the system

Zombies would be too mindless for that though; maybe a ghoul or a ghast, since they're cunning enough for that.
Oh my fucking god my heart would be in fucking shambles

a walk through a graveyard where every grave has air tubes would be the worst, all that dead people gas just constantly farting out of the tombs at you

You missed the god damned skels. Those crafty buggers would work that shit out in no time, they have spooking to be getting on with.
holy shit that is really fucking near me
