'Dead man' comes back to life on his way to cremation
2024-01-14
[GEO.TV] An Indian man, who was declared dead by a hospital in Haryana, came back to life on his way for his last rites, NDTV reported on Friday.

Declared dead by doctors, 80-year-old Darshan Singh Brar’s body was being taken in the ambulance to his home in Karnal from Patiala when the car hit a pothole and Brar’s grandson noticed his hand moving on sensing a heartbeat.

He asked the ambulance driver to head to the nearest hospital where the doctors said that he was alive.

Brar's family and friends had already gathered at his home, food had been prepared for the mourners, and wood had been prepared for cremations when the ambulance hit the pothole.

After finding out about Brar being alive, everyone gathered and congratulated his family.

"My brother in Patiala informed us around 9 am on Thursday about our grandfather's death, and he was getting him to Nising in an ambulance for his last rites," Brar’s grandson, Balwan Singh, told the news hounds.
