Extreme heat brings ‘dead’ man back to life
7 Aug 2013 5:10 AM IST
A Chinese vendor’s scheme to forge his own death for financial gain was busted after the heat in Hubei Province proved too much for him to bear. The incident occurred when more than 10 men were holding the vendor’s ‘corpse’ on a gurney in Wuhan.
They claimed urban management workers had beaten the man to death and demanded compensation, a worker with the city’s urban management committee said. The crowd dispersed two hours later when the ‘dead’ vendor suddenly jumped up, grabbed a bottle of water and drank it before saying, ‘It’s too hot. I can’t bear it anymore.’
