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.
I’m guessing you still have power?
ME????
I have a cell phone and a Nook eReader...I am never without “wheels!”
Luckily for me, I live in Henderson, in an area where all the water runs downhill. We have a large wash at the edge of the property, and I should probably check to see if if it is full...just because of curiosity!
I am fortunate!
*kiss*
Just so you know I’m thinking of you, even though the ‘net here is not all one might desire.
Tomorrow morning I plan to go to the one Methodist cemetery, and also to a second Methodist church where I hope to find who’s in charge of a revival campground,dated 1830. It’s posted Keep Out, but maybe we acn get a note from the pastor to look around, or even someone from the congregation to show it to us.
Cybes, I think we found out where all your currently missing items went.
You’re going to have to somehow bribe the curiously familiar figure guarding them...
Not to worry...I have a kitteh that looks JUST LIKE the one in the photo I posted. Fred will take care of it.
Lest you forget, my darling, Cyber, we have five kitties. I feed them all special diets, take crazy Fred rides on his cart and generally love them up while you are at work. We have secrets,,,,,hahahahaha
Uh oh.
Meh. She already has all the money, so what’s to rough up about? There’s food. And five kittehs. And coffee. Always coffee.
The coffee is master, the coffee is all.
This oughta get me to the next star system......
I wonder if shipping myself (as a romantic gesture) would work on her! Eye yam desprat!
(I’ve heard that persistence pays off, but with most women today persistence pays off with a court restraining order!
I would advise against it. It's a long way to China.
Please excuse lateness. Did the results of stitching up their mouth corners maybe travel uphill to their vomeronasal doohickeys and not allow them to scent as well as they ordinarily would have if their mouth corners hadn’t been sutured? It’s not nice to mess w/Mother Nature.
Wow—San Gennaro festa cancelled? That’s where I first learned of the deliciousness of zeppole. Hope you’re safe!
Don’t know what y’all are talking about but it sounds very good to me so power to youse!
You want to ship yourself to China? How about being a stowaway? I’m sooooo confused.
Can you join us later at LibreOuMort’s birthday celebration?
Oops—later meaning tomorrow for LOM!
Good morning and Happy Birthday!
"Tomorrow, tomorrow,
I'll love you tomorrow.
It's only a day away ..."
