A man from Chongqing in Southern China nearly suffocated to death after a romantic gesture to his girlfriend went wrong.
Mr Hu Seng had asked his friend to tape him into a box so he could ship himself via a courier service to his girlfriend, Li Wang.
However, the romantic gesture turned into a life-threatening event for Mr Hu when the courier company mixed up the address with another delivery.
The 30-minute wait turned into a three-hour ordeal for Mr Hu.
The material of the box was reportedly too thick for him to make any breathing holes while inside and he did not want to spoil the surprise by calling for attention.
When the box arrived at Li Wang's place, his friend was poised to record the event.
However, they found Mr Hu unconscious and looking pale upon opening the package.
Subsequently, paramedics were called over to her apartment to revive him.
He admitted, "I didn't realise it would take so long."
The courier company said they would not have accepted this delivery if they had known there was a person inside.
The spokesperson said that even for animals, a special container would be used so they can breathe properly.
Extra points when it’s a surprise to the OP.
You should know better by now. Next time tell 'im to take it outside.
I propose a compromise. Let him inhale inside the house, but exhale outside. That should be safe.
Inspiration, and expiration. I'm an expert in this stuff.
Apparently so.
He liked it.
“without AV protection.”
I hope you’re practicing safe fax. :p
Whenever I need a challenge, I’ll call upon you!
Thanks! Just got back, and without incident this time, unlike last week when a slow-moving commercial truck veered suddenly into my lane without signaling, as I was zipping along at 75 mph (120 kph) over Yokohama Bay Bridge. Came to within two car lengths of a serious world of hurt on that one.
Morning, all. My Internet Explorer has been updated or something, and now my “Favorites Bar” is gone. Until I can get a technical expert to put things back the way they were, it will be like posting from my portable beeber.
Can someone else put up a cat picture today?
Your wish is my command, dear lady.
Just when you need a technical expert, the kids are all busy.
When I worked in a camera shop in Tarzana, CA, I told the few smokers who came in that the ash tray was outside. :o]
*tagline*
Ohgross.
Since Hallowe'en is just around the corner, I promise I'll be practicing safe hex. :oþ
Thanks, Sis! I’m glad my son and I survived, too! *hug*
WHOA! The Angels are watching out for you! I’m glad you’re OK.
Seems to me I recovered my Favorites Bar, but I can’t recall how I did it. Ohyah: On the URL window, there should be a down arrow. If you click it, it will have a drop-down menu that should contain “Favorites.” Check it out. Not sure how far back it saves them, but still...
Do I hear crickets?
You can have mine. I won't miss them.
I’m sure everything is saved somewhere, but right now I have a weird screen that’s not at all like it used to be, and we’re still having processing problems. We’re trying to order a ThinkGeek gift certificate for Tom’s geek friend Forrest (”of Forestry”) who will celebrate his 18th birthday tomorrow, but the site kept going nonresponsive instead of letting us pay.
Tom’s trying to pull it up on the other computer. Bill is protesting the injustice of his existence by assuming the dead pharoah position in his bed and refusing to move.
Thanks for the ktiteh!
Actually, I don’t like crickets. They are only good for telling the temperature, and any more than one is confusing.
Dragons love crickets, and cockroaches, and evil tomato hornworms.
Pretty nice day here, but too warm. Early-morning Walmart trip made because we were out of everything.
