Funeral home workers preparing to embalm body of dead man find man is still alive

78-year-old Walter Williams, described by family members as a “fighter”, appeared to have died in his Lexington, Mississippi home on February 26, 2013. The coroner arrived at the home and finding no pulse, pronounced him dead. Family members watched as emergency personnel “put him in a body bag and zipped it up”. Williams was then transported to Porter and Sons Funeral Home where his “body” laid in storage throughout the night. Thursday morning, funeral home workers began preparing to embalm Williams when suddenly, he started to kick in the body bag struggling to release himself from the enclosure.
