00:00we've always said this is a nightmare and occasionally too often it comes true a dead
00:11woman woke up in a coffin at her own funeral funeral banging on the hood of the coffin to
00:19get out no no mourners at an ecuadorian wake were left stunned it's always there though it is after
00:26their dead relative began banging on the inside of her coffin jesus i'm so traumatic poop myself how
00:33many alive people do they bury in ecuador per year so many so many the numbers must be astronomical
00:40yeah uh bella montoya they don't have it on video do they they well they have them this is now people
00:48tending to her oh my god 76 year old bella montoya regained consciousness during her wake which was
00:54held in the city of baba joyo the video shows medics tending to her after her loved ones realized she
01:00was still alive and heard her banging inside the casket she can be seen clearly clearly breathing
01:08as she's removed from the casket and placed onto a stretcher let me see this i mean she's not great
01:15oh no right but you can definitely see her breathe can you i yeah oh yeah no yeah you can see it up
01:22and down she's breathing you can see her open her mouth getting air oh she's not gonna be she's not
01:26great but she's alive though but she's you cannot be burying that person yes not yet maybe give it a
01:32couple days but uh the wake was held just four hours after she was declared dead how did they do this
01:40with a medical examiner even providing them with a death certificate her cause of death listed as
01:45cardio respiratory arrest like her mouth is opening and closing you know yes yeah i think over there
01:54they're just like a totally a day look they do me totally a day sign off on it yeah sign in here and
02:00totally a day i'll put this stamp on her everybody right she's now being tended to at the same hospital
02:05that declared her dead her son says she's in stable condition now i'd like a new hospital
02:09then the last one what a range of emotions for that fan oh just terrible come on well and who
02:19knows what you believe and all sorts of stuff just like holy crap oh they do believe it's a miracle
02:27oh yeah right yeah um she's on oxygen her heart is now stable she's reacting to touch miracles really
02:36can bail out some real dumb asses huh like i never thought about that the family is describing it as
02:41a miracle from god and the guys in the hospital are like yes it was a miracle big time big time miracle
02:49thank you jesus thank you jesus for coming and saving her because she was a date we saw a date
02:58date he's a miracle i've never seen anything god has come back here it's called a lawsuit yeah you're
03:06right it's uh malpractice here it's a miracle if you don't get sued yeah that's they used to do
03:11all kinds of creepy stuff to prevent being buried alive they used to put a bell that the person that's
03:18right they could ring the bell from the coffin stop it under the earth so this is like you could be
03:25walking through a graveyard and it's like oh my god somebody alive down there no no no no they weren't
03:33as good as you imagine that would be the scariest thing ever be like oh god they're alive down there
03:41oh my god they're undead i don't know they're six feet down and all we have are these two little
03:47shovels oh my god somebody help them they're not gonna make somebody help them
03:51somebody else help them i'm not digging up i'm not gonna dig them up i don't know if it's an undead
03:57person or if it's yeah i'm there well hopefully the bell just stops get some scissors for the bell
04:04string i feel like it does stop eventually yeah so you just wait it'll stop my god coffin bells but
04:10that's before they had machinery that could let you know if someone was alive or dead yeah exactly
04:15yeah now we have that machinery and we still don't use it not what a scary time what a crazy thing to
04:19think about like there was just a time when people were buried alive a lot yeah yeah and we're seeing
04:25a little glimpse of it in ecuador yes well in lots of places yes people don't care people don't like
04:32to do good work anymore honestly though i mean she's pretty rough i know she looked she just all of a
04:39sudden was like well better is a little better than she was yes better than in a coffin that's where
04:46the term saved by the bell comes from oh no way it's all right because i'm saved by the bill
04:53i had no idea i thought it was more about you guys saved by the bell so you didn't have to take that
04:59quiz and uh history class that's what i thought it was just like oh god i'm sorry teach class is over
05:04i gotta get that quiz tomorrow damn stuff is always from like way older than we think absolutely
05:09oh saved by the bell the charming little show no your great great great grandfather had to ring a
05:18bell to save his life morse's ancestors must have been grave diggers oh and the other that's the
05:22other thing that i that i thought it was like saved by the bells in boxing you know like you're about
05:28to be counted out and then the bell goes but it's from even older than that expression that relates to
05:35people being buried alive buried alive whether that's the original or not i think the saved by
05:41the bell sitcom was based on something a little more when i died in that coffin and they put me
05:50underground it's all right because you're saved by the bell i was alive and i'm buried i'm in a
05:58wooden box and i don't think i'm gonna make it on time it's all right because you're saved by
06:04the bell
06:04help
06:06what a weird twist on that song yeah not a twist i ever saw
06:15when i wake up in the morning and the lawn gets out of the morning i don't think i'll ever make it on
06:21time
06:22by the time i got a book set i give myself a look i'm at the corner just in time to see the bus
06:28die
06:29yeah i never thought that's a much darker song yeah yeah yeah imagine people like popping out
06:40of coffins oh what a sitcom that would be an ecuadorian sitcom when we were when did we start
06:48putting people like so far down in the ground oh that's like we've been doing that a long long
06:54time because it does there's a reason for that too though there's a reason for it to be six feet
06:59yeah i just heard it i can't remember what it is six feet under you know like it's tough to dig
07:05through six feet of dirt snatching dead bodies was common in many parts of england and scotland
07:10therefore graves were always dug six feet deep to prevent body snatchers from gaining access to the
07:15buried remains another issue with people worried about animals digging up graves yeah just uh try to
07:22dig six feet of dirt off of someone who's ringing a bell oh yeah you're not gonna get to them you
07:28know you're not unless you're incredibly muscular i know it's probably you're probably gonna give up
07:35that's too bad i guess you just sort of gather around and you're like pat you only got so much
07:41oxygen in there too yeah that's that's no good yeah no that's unfortunate but now you know
07:47where saved by the bell comes from yeah yeah as we go a little dark side
07:51you
