A “dead” South African man surprised his family, friends and morgue workers when he awoke inside a mortuary refrigerator Sunday after being enclosed for 21 hours.

Shocked morgue workers thought a ghost was screaming when the man, believed to be around 80-years-old, awoke from his 21-hour sleep in the locked refrigerated compartment, morgue owner Ayanda Maqolo said.
I do not know whether to be shocked or laugh. No longer being a fan of tight places it may have killed me when I could not get out.

This one's around here somewhere, but I found it again somewhere else.

Well, I'll wager that more people don't wake up in morgues than do. Any takers?

For whom the bell tolls

I recall reading that after finding scratch marks inside coffins cemetery had bells to ring if you woke up buried, hence the "graveyard shift" watchman listened for bells
hence "Saved by the bell" "dead ringer" sounds good, but read Saved by the Bell at
