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.
We had a Newfoundland and a Newfie mix. Now, talk about drool factories—even the Danes couldn’t match those two.
Maybe she’ll become a forest ranger, if not a coastie.
Or a landscaper.
There’s a nice cemetery nearby; maybe we’ll go over a little later when she won’t need sunscreen. This is historically Methodist area, with many congregations dating to the early 1800s.
LOL, yes.
This day is sobered mostly because it is my oldest nephew’s birthday. He had it first. I must celebrate before I grieve.
Oooohhhh! Crebber! I almost missed that, it was so “fitting in!”
LOL!
I love the pic!
Closest thing I had to a drooler was an Australian Shep.
My mother said it first! She also coined "It's always darkest just before it goes totally black," and "If it ain't one darn thing, it's two darn things."
Since I remember these from childhood, and where we lived was in the High Desert in a town of 4,000 people, I can't imagine anyone else could have invented them in time for the internet. ;o])
LOL!
You are so fuuny! I need you today! LOL!
Thanks!
I think a Bloodhound can out drool all of the other breeds. I have heard that Bloodhound owners would have their vet stitch up the corners of their Bloodhounds mouths to control it. I didn’t go that far with Sally, my Bloodhound, I just wiped up after her.
Ouch.
Sponge mouthguards for dogs?
Both posts, I read, “Where’s My Monkey?”
(Sorry Guys. It’s one of THOSE days!)
LOL!
I seriously considered letting Sally wear a bucket hanging from her collar.
Doggie drool bucket?
LOL!
That would look rather amusing.
HAHAHA! I Have it.
Need a buck, baby?
