A woman in Thailand shocked temple staff when she started moving in her coffin after being brought in for cremation.
Wat Rat Prakhong Tham, a Buddhist temple in the province of Nonthaburi on the outskirts of Bangkok, posted a video on its Facebook page, showing a woman lying in a white coffin in the back of a pick-up truck, slightly moving her arms and head, leaving temple staff bewildered.
Pairat Soodthoop, the temple’s general and financial affairs manager, told The Associated Press on Monday that the 65-year-old woman’s brother drove her from the province of Phitsanulok to be cremated.
He said they heard a faint knock coming from the coffin.
Makes me think that there was a reason that he didn’t try to get a death certificate.
Eh, I doubt there was ill intent here. Sounds like dude is poor and doing his best. Otherwise, why bother to try to get a free cremation or organ transplant? A random hole in the ground would be a much more effective hiding spot.
