In 1915, a woman was late to her sister's funeral and told the undertaker she wanted to see her sister one last time. When the coffin was opened, the dead woman sat up and smiled, and she lived another 47 years.
Personal note: I would have died and taken her place in the coffin.
It's a true story! The 'dead' woman's name was Essie Dunbar and she really did live another 47 years.
