London: Mourners at a funeral in Egypt swapped tears for cheers when the member whom they were burying woke up.
Hamid Hafex al-Nubdi, a 28-year-old waiter from Naga al Simman, near Luxor was being prepared for burial when a doctor sent to sign his death certificate discovered that the body was still warm, The Daily Mail reported.
Al-Nubdi was declared dead after suffering a heart attack at work. His family members were so convinced about his death that that they had already washed his body according to Islamic traditions and were preparing to bury him.
The lady doctor who found the 'dead' man was still alive revived him.
Rather than cancel the funeral, the mourners turned the occasion into a celebration of al-Nubdi's "resurrection".
