Let me out! Dead man ‘calls out’ from his coffin

NEW DELHI: Let me out, it’s f***ing dark in here” called a voice from the coffin that’s just been lowered into a grave in front of mourners. But instead of alarm, a ripple of laughter swept across the crowd at the grave in Kilkenny^[1] in Ireland^[2].
The voice continues, “Where the f*** am I? Is that that priest I can hear?” and the laughter grows even stronger. This was the funeral of Irish defence force veteran Shay Bradley on Saturday, who through a pre-recorded message was able to entertain the attendees at his own graveside.
His daughter Andrea wrote on Twitter^[3] that the recording had been played through a speaker on the ground next to her father’s grave. “It was his dying wish that we played this at his funeral. What a man... To make us all laugh when we were incredibly sad… ,” she said.
