A Dutch gravedigger had a lucky escape after he accidentally buried himself.
The 62-year-old man, from Nieuwleusen, was digging a grave in Zwolle cemetery when it happened, reports Gva.be.
A trailer containing the earth he had removed tipped over and fell into the grave, knocking over the man and covering him completely.
Luckily, a workmate was able to move the trailer and uncover the gravedigger's face to let him breathe.
He called the fire brigade who managed to free the man after an hour. He was unhurt apart from a bump on the head.

This sounds like the grave digger episode of The Twilight Zone!
LOL....... I thought of that when I first heard it on the newscast early this morning.
Were I in a graveyard digging a grave, and dirt began piling on me.. um.. the mind just reels. lol.
What a genuine horror show for this man. Would there be walking skeletons glaring at me after I clawed my way to the surface? eek.
LOL
The only thing I could think of when I first heard this story was that crazy/sicko, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran.
Every time the little goon opens his hateful mouth about getting rid of all the Jews and Israel (and America too) I see more dirt and ashes falling on his head in his grave.
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran is as you say it; heaping the ashes upon his own head.
