Woman Dies At Her Own Funeral: Fagilyu Mukhametzyanov Dead At 49

A woman has reportedly died from the shock of coming to life at her own funeral.

Fagilyu Mukhametzyanov, 49, was wrongly declared dead by doctors, but she actually died after hearing people pray for her soul in Kazan, Russia, according to the Daily Mail.

She was taken back to a hospital where she was declared dead, this time for good.

"Her eyes fluttered and we immediately rushed her back to the hospital but she only lived for another 12 minutes," her husband, Fagili Mukhametzyanov, said, according to the Daily News.

Mukhametzyanov said he plans to sue the hospital, which says it is conducting an investigation of the incident.

Her final cause of death was heart failure, according to reports. Her "first death" was also heart-related, a suspected heart attack.

This isn't the first time a funeral has taken an unexpected twist. In recent years, a man showed up alive for his own funeral in Brazil and a premature baby declared dead woke up before his own funeral before dying shortly after in Paraguay.

And the moral of the story is: Make sure you're dead before you die. Right!

What if they buried her and then she came back to life?....They just don't make doctors like they used to.

In the 19th century people were so scared this would happen some would install special vents, alert and escape systems for the coffins so they could notify the living that they're buried alive. You can find pictures of the patent sheets for some of the devices online.

Yes, the idea is to replicate what you would see on a newsstand, those are actual titles...

My post is a joke post to add to the parent post.

They do not embalm?
They would have found out then she was alive if they did- -very sad.

Maybe the doctors who declared her dead were not alive............a fluttering of her eyes does not also mean that she came back to life as that might be a postmortem event, but this is a sad story however you take it
