'Dead' Man Wakes Up Under Autopsy Knife

rt_camejo_070917_ms.jpg


Carlos Camejo, a Venezuelan man who had been declared dead but woke up in the morgue in excruciating pain after medical examiners began their autopsy, poses for the camera in La Victoria September 17, 2007. 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.

Something's fishy in this s... (Below threshold)

Something's fishy in this story:

(1) My inherent scepticism of Latin American media -- remember the Mexican woman who performed a successful Cesaerian on herself?
(2) How many autopsies start with a facial incision and not the Y-cut on the chest?
(3) He woke up from unconsciousness because the pain of a facial cut "was unbearable"?

Sorry, but this story is full of beans!
