An Ecuadorian woman who was declared dead astonished her relatives when she began banging on her coffin in the middle of her wake. 76-year-old Bella Montoya Tapia was declared dead after a “presumptive cerebrovascular accident” last week, the health ministry said, but was taken back to hospital after showing signs of life from inside her coffin.

Disgusting and disgraceful… the medical professionals today are careless
Just think how happy her friends and family are!!!!
So do they get a refund on the funeral?
But she will die eventually.
Pardon my ignorance
Do they not have coroners or emts ?
They just put people in coffins, embalming?
Let me guess Catholic? 😂😂😂😂 what a joke hide your little boys
SHES STILL DYING looks like cancer
I thought this is something that happens in the mid 19th century. That's why they have death houses to store newly dead people to make sure they are really dead.
Ok now im completely weirded out. This women still alive in a coffin 4 kids lived thru a plane crash and 40 days in a jungle. What is going on.
Nobody seems happy about it…😂
So they don’t do autopsies there?
She did not wake up. She is going thru agonal breathing. She’s actively dying 🤦🏻 🤦🏻
Was she not embalmed yet? Or is that not a common practice in Ecuador?
How does this happen?
En Ecuador cualquier persona puede ser médico 🧑🔬 tienes haci de fácil el título no saben si el paciente sigue con vida o está muerto cuántas personas capas las han enterrado viva 😇 vivan los médicos del Ecuador 🇪🇨
This is one reason I’m against the Muslim culture of burying the dead quickly.
Do you know how many have been buried alive?
Everrybody else; is a miracle, we in LATAM; nope, is LATAM health systems, this happend all the time.
Are her organs still intact? before burying a person they usually take out all the organs, they do some postmortem procedures. Espero que se recupere pronto la señora. 😢
That's why you remove their organs before burial.
I guess she didnt have a heart monitor and an autopsy wasnt done? For a second I thought this was gonna be declared a real life miracle 😳😱 Very confusing on how someone can be declared dead while still alive. I pray that this lady recovers.
Oh my God! How many people were buried alive there?
Please don't let this happen to me? WOW!
I want to be CREMATED. Burn ME.
Makes you wonder if we should stop removing organs and stop embalming
What this really indicates is that the power and authority to pronounce someone dead is not with the Doctors or medical professionals. Since it’s not a perfect science, only the Creator of life has the ultimate authority and power to pronounce someone dead or alive. This broadens my idea on what is considered alive and what is considered dead and gives more depth to what the word qabar (ﻗَﺒﺮ ) in Arabic means and why the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) advised us on what to do to overcome the trial of the grave, which is supposedly a very severe trial.
لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِالله
May as well leave her in there
Hallelujah
My neighbor was officially declared dead and taken to the morgue. He was the morgue for a full day when he woke up. He lived for another year.
as much as this might seem like she's alive and back it'll be sad if she never has a life again, but bed ridden and vegetative till she just in fact dies.
fake they already had the blue cloth under nieth her
so i guess they dont embalm ppl
I don't understand… In that climate I would think they embalm but I guess they don't…im confused
Se ve que la señora está en una situación delicada de salud pero qué bueno que a pesar de eso pudo hacerse notar.
After reviving her to 100% health ask her what she seen during her NDE in a couple of months.
Don't take her back to the same hospital
Quick to get a coffin no?
How horrifying.
😮🤮no. That's not human 🙄💅🏽
Good grief the world is just a dumber place because of American morbidity and influence from gross societies
I hope this woman wasn't returned to the same hospital that pronounced her dead.
This is demonic possession and it needs to be put back down.
America brought its foreign stupidity and filth including lack of hygiene and moral compass and now society is stuck dealing with sicknesses never tolerated before.
That's why it's called a "wake". It was hoped that if someone was wrongfully declared dead the noise of other people around plus the time period before burial would give the person a chance to "wake" up 😅
This has been happening for many many years, people you to plan for a way to get out out of their caskets and Graves incase this were to happen.
JFC!! Can you imagine?!¡!? 😵💫
I think I'd faint if I heard
knocking coming from the
inside of a coffin!! ⚰
Boy she woke up just in time..😮😮😮😮
Someone's getting fired …..I hope lol😅
Remind me not to get sick in Ecuador lol
She got better
Thank goodness she wasn't embalmed first .. 💀
The family should sue whoever it was that pronounced her dead
