Video: Kenyan Man Awakes In Hospital Morgue Just Hours As Embalming Was Set To Start


Screaming Kenyan morgue workers fled after a man who had been pronounced dead suddenly woke up. Good thing, too. He was about to be embalmed.
 Paul Mutora had been declared dead by staff at Naivasha hospital after an apparent suicide attempt. Mutora had drunk insecticide after arguing with his father. But after almost 24 hours he woke up, sending hospital workers running in fright.
Admitted to hospital, he was given a drug which slowed his heartbeat, Metro reports. “This [DRUG] might have confused medical personnel, but the victim was saved before he could be embalmed,” Dr Joseph Mburu told Kenya’s Standard newspaper, as cited by Metro.
His family were already beginning to make funeral arrangements when they were told there was no need. His father said they were left “in shock” by the happy turn of events.
The patient is now in recovery and has apologized to his father.
