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

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.

Lack of structure is refreshing. Garden is slowing down, no-kill shelter doesn’t need extra help any more, neighbor has stopped reinjuring his leg by stubbornly doing things himself (had appt. w/ortho surgeon and is now staying put so we don’t have to race him to feed the horse). Life is good. Your vacation getaway sounds *really* good!

*HUGS* I’ve been missing you too!

I’m sorry for not being around as much. For some reason I have been spending more time in the garden, cooking, trying to learn about flavours, spices, herbs, etc. I also became addicted to Master Chef, LOL!

Are you doing well Sis?
*More HUGS*

Loafed around this morning, took pictures later and went to Walmart, then kids and DP went in the lake. I found the widgets and he set us up teh interwebs.

Lovely evening, 70s and nice breeze from north, no skeeters. Kathleen is in her bouncer here on the deck. Boats just offshore, people fishing.

Last year was ocean, this year is lake. First time at this house, but 3 years ago we stayed nearby at another property owned by the same investors. That was the year we took Ash, but I am sure she is happier at home with Bill.

Pics are being made but won’t be online until next week, unl DP uploads some.
