Mourners got the fright of their lives as they filed past their loved one in a coffin… when he started moving.
Brighton Dama Zanthe, 34, “died” after a long illness at home in Zimbabwe.
But the deceased’s boss noticed him moving as he filed past, paying his last respects at the funeral.
Lot Gaka said: “I noticed Zanthe’s legs moving as I was in the queue to view his body. At first I could not believe my eyes.”
Mourners “jumped out of their skins” and ran in horror, imagining Mr Zanthe had come back from the dead to haunt them.
But when they realised the truth, he was taken to hospital at Gweru where he was put on life support for two days.
Relatives and friends had been devastated when Mr Zanthe died. They wrapped him in blankets and took him to the mortuary where he was prepared for the funeral.
The next day, mourners wept as they said their emotional goodbyes by his coffin.
But they were astonished to see his legs moving and relatives became hysterical. Mr Gaka added: “They all jumped in disbelief.”
Amazingly, Mr Zanthe was home this week from Gweru Provincial Hospital.
He said: “I feel OK now. I don’t know what happened and I only remember being on life support. I was given another chance.”
