    It’s more that the human body can be really fucking weird. Your vitals can drop to extremely low levels, your temperature can drop to room temperature, you can appear entirely dead for over an hour, but still recover.

    Usually this happens to old people who were already at death’s door. It can be very hard to find any sign of life sometimes.

      There’s a reason graveyards used to have bells attached to ropes in the graves.

      If you woke up in a grave you ring the bell and hope to god the groundskeeper was close enough to hear it.
