OCTOBER 11 "DO PEOPLE THINK YOU'RE DEAD?"

PARIS, France -- An elderly man who was declared dead only to be found to be alive after his body had been sent to the mortuary, has died again. This time, it's official.

The unnamed 68-year-old Frenchman was mistakenly declared dead last week at a rest home near the southwest city of Bordeaux.  A doctor called to the home issued a death certificate and the 'body' was then sent to a funeral parlour in nearby Macau, where it was refrigerated for five hours.  An employee at the funeral parlor was preparing the body for burial when he discovered signs of life.

"When I ... opened the cover, I saw that his stomach was moving," said Laurent Besson on France-2 television. "I don't deny that I jumped."  The elderly man was transferred to the Bordeaux University Hospital and placed in intensive care.
