Check the Coffin – The Weird Side of the Internet

Check the Coffin – The Weird Side of the Internet – by Liam Sweeny.

There are a catalog of nightmares common to everybody; showing up at school not wearing your pants, spiders, clowns. Jake from State Farm. But there is one nightmare that strikes at the core of us; being buried alive. In fact, back in the late 1800s they would install bells at gravesites to be run from within. So when Thailand’s Chonthirat Sakulkoo was put in a coffin and brought to a crematorium by her brother, it was probably terrifying. Because she wasn’t dead. Faint scratching was heard. He opened the coffin to his sister, living and hypoglycemic from the lack of food, who may have been brought back with cookies and orange juice.

This is even crazier, because when they asked her brother if he was happy she was alive. He said he was indifferent. Thanks bro. One might wonder how a woman, not breathing, was brought to the crematorium instead of the hospital. Paperwork. As in, the brother didn’t have the right versions of it, so he took the body to the crematorium.

I’m sorry, but this is coming from Thailand’s Florida. This has to be some remote village or something. It doesn’t strike me the whole near death thing. It strikes me that the brother, disinterred brother, lugged her miles to be cremated. Why? Sounds like he could’ve called 1-800-JUNK.

Man, being buried alive. Hight test nightmare fuel. I’m sure by now she’s heard her brother say he didn’t care that she didn’t die. I’m assuming they’re only close enough for delivery services. This whole talk I’ve been avoiding the notion of foul play. Did he get questioned, arrested, booked and a mugshot with the coffin dead center in the room and all the cops standing around behind it with their hands clasped in front of them and a ruler for scale.

If I stop breathing, chop me up. Medium puree, and send me to a tribe that still drinks human daiquiris.
