man faints during stampede, wakes up in the morgue

"Nineteen-year-old Mange Ram from India was knocked unconscious on a pilgrimage by stampeding devotees on the way to the Naina Devi shrine in the Himalayan state of Himachal Pradesh.
Panic set in when rumors of a landslide in the area started to circulate, thousands of people on the steep path scurried in fear resulting in a horrendous stampede, killing hundreds. The bodies were carelessly dispatched into trucks without anyone checking to see if the crushed bodies were still alive.
Mr Ram, thankfully, woke up in the morgue only to find himself laying in a row of cadavers.
“When I woke up, I was in the middle of a row of bodies waiting for postmortem.”
” My throat was parched and I asked for water. Towering over me the doctors and nursing staff at Anandpur Sahib Civil Hospital looked dazed. They must have been surprised to see a dead man come alive like that.”

No shit?
