Man Nearly Died by Shipping Himself to Girlfriend (As a Romantic Gesture)
AsiaOne ^ | Tuesday, Sep 04, 2012

Posted on 09/05/2012 3:37:31 PM PDT by nickcarraway

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.

Pat will be hurt, but he will also be able to lecture about the expected lifespan of long-boned dogs and incidence of cancer and natter natter natter and also the cost of veterinary care.

Hope you have a good night!

They usually respond to me by saying “and how do you feel about that?”. :)

My pets look at me as if to say, "I didn't understand one word of that. What is wrong with you, Man?"

Pinglist? Absolutely.

(Wait. This isn’t the “First Freepers to be delivered to the Zombies” pinglist, is it?)

Of course not. That role is reserved for traveling salesmen who come to call.

I’m thinking suditions ought to be illegal.

You can apply for a license to carry concealed suditions in VA which is supposed to have reciprocity in 17 other states, but the other 17 states are really picky and state that the VA license is not nearly picky enough. Go figure. Today we brought fried Italian doughnuts to Earthwoman and her son and grandson. They also liked the mini cantaloupes (garden giving it's last gasp). Elderly neighbor's horse, dogs, cat and peacocks doing fine. All is well.... Good night and sweet dreams, y'all!

I could also add you to my ping list. I usually post it twice a month, in case some of the Undeaders are slacking in their reading assignments. ;o]

I include recent visitors to the Undead Thread in the ping for the morning kitteh, but unless the visitors become regulars, I eventually forget about them. The Kitteh Ping list is off the top of my head each morning, so it varies.

LOL!

I just checked my ping list, and there are SOOO many who don’t even pop in from time to time, that I’m tempted to pare it down. Maybe I should, when the next ping is due.

Have you got a date for the raffle, yet?

Pare it down? Remove the undead from the undead ping list? Are you insane?

Thanks for the morning kitteh ping!

What I want to know is who planted diabolical plans in the kitteh’s head—or vice versa; what Freeper is now out and about doing Kitteh’s bidding?

;)

It’s Basement Cat. It plants diabolical plans in others...
We ALL do Kitteh’s bidding. We just don’t often realize it!

Some of just are simply so grumpy from several medical downturns that we have had no sense of humor for a couple of months.

Hence, we read but don't post.

There is NO WAY I would remove sionnsar! I met with him several times, and I was devasted by his passing. He was One in a Million.

I have several pics off him, as well, and treasure them.

His sionsareen is a study in strength and courage.
