LEXINGTON, Miss. - Workers at a Mississippi funeral home say they found a man alive and kicking when they opened a body bag.
Holmes County Coroner Dexter Howard calls it a miracle that 78-year-old Walter Williams is alive.
The coroner was called to Williams' home in Lexington, a community north of Jackson, where family members believed he had died.
Howard says Williams had no pulse and was pronounced dead Wednesday at 9 p.m.
Early Thursday, workers at Porter and Sons Funeral Home were preparing to embalm Williams when he started to kick in the body bag.

Earlier the coroner was remarking how strange it was that it took 6 people to restrain him during the autopsy.

Reminds me of a guy at work. If you think the dead don’t come back to life, don’t get in this guy’s way at quitting time.

I find my Better Half zips me up in one (a body bag) every night after sleep and am fully awake, then I go make coffee for my Better Half. Only woke up at morgue twice though. I must have been really evil those two times. I empathize with this Mississippi man. He must be evil too.

He must have been soaking wet. I’ve used a body bag as a bivy sack camping. Those things don’t breathe at all and get very wet inside just from exhaling.

He definitely needed a miracle! He’s gone? Not quite. He must not be a friend of the devil, or he’d be goin to he’ll in a bucket. Enough of the Dead puns. One more and everyone will start throwing stones!
