Dead man walks in
No, this is not voodoo or black magic. There was a car crash in Southern Brazil and relatives of 59-year old Ademir Jorge Goncalves identified the remains as that belonging to Ademir. They took them away and arranged for the funeral on Sunday. However, Ademir turned up on Monday and shocked his relatives – he was, in fact, spending the night at a truck stop drinking merrily and was not aware that his own funeral had been conducted. When word reached him, he ran pell-mell to set things right. It seemed a section of his family including his mother was not sure about the identity because the body was badly disfigured – however, others convinced the doubters pointing to the clothes that the dead body had on.
