Now this is what we call a hangover…

Now this is what we call a hangover…

If you happen to be over in Poland any time soon, try not to pass out in public as this may happen to you. A man named in the Metro as Marek Michalski passed out on a park bench in a place called Piotrkow and passers-by called an ambulance after they became concerned for him.

The paramedics duly arrived and declared him as a goner, putting him in a body bag and dropping him off at the morgue.

The next thing the 56-year-old knew was waking up in the body bag. After a quick scream or two he managed to roll off the slab in the morgue and free himself.

‘I remember sitting on a bench and the next thing I woke up in a morgue,’ he told local press.

‘Someone has to pay for this, I have nightmares now about being sliced up by doctors who don’t realise I am alive and want to do an autopsy.’

Michalski plans to sue the hospital, who claim their staff thought he was dead and followed procedures.

Sobering stuff.
