I'm Not Dead! (Man Wakes Up During 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....

The rest of the brief article.

How creepy would that be? I'm glad he's alive and I'm sure his wife is ecstatic after the trauma of finding out her husband is dead, but isn't after all......but to wake up on the cutting table with someone inserting a knife into my face?? No thanks.

An even bigger question in my mind, though, is....why were they cutting his face? It's an autopsy....wouldn't they be inspecting other areas first? And wouldn't 'those' cuts or poking and prodding 'wake him up'? Did they not check vital signs either? I know this took place in Venezuela, but it still sounds kinda sketchy to me. :S
