Man declared dead found breathing in morgue
N.C. emergency medical team suspended after screw-upThe Associated Press
Updated: 9:11 a.m. ET Jan. 27, 2005RALEIGH, N.C. - A medical examiner studying a body in a morgue was startled when the man took a shallow breath.
Emergency medical technicians had declared 29-year-old Larry D. Green dead almost two hours earlier, after he was hit by a car.
Medical examiner J.B. Perdue was called to the accident scene Monday but did not examine Green then. Later, he was documenting GreenÂ’s injuries when he noticed the man was breathing.
“I had to look twice myself just to make sure it was there, that’s how subtle it was,” Perdue said.
Green, 29, was taken to Duke University Medical Center in Durham, where he was in critical condition Wednesday.
Several members of the Franklin County emergency medical service have been suspended pending an investigation, said Darnell Batton, the county attorney.

Would you prefer to have medical care where they don't even bother checking to see if you're alive?
Frivolous suits are one thing but this is something very different.

A little Cliff Claven history.
In 1400-1500 England, they would dig up old dead bodies to make room for newer dead bodies. After finding many of the old coffins scratched up from the inside, it was determined that people were somehow being buried alive. So, they began leaving the bodies sit out for some time to see if they would awaken. Thus, we now have the modern "Wake" before burial.
Yes, I am a nerd.

...but she tried to kill him first and buried him alive. Did you see the second one where the couple was sent to the bottom of the ocean in their yacht... alive? Anyway... couple of cool flicks.
If you like that kind of stuff where married couples are trying to off each other, watch "Shattered", bad ass cliff hanger right there.

Don't watch "Unfaithful" if you're going through a divorce... at least not if you're a guy.
