He Woke Up in the Morgue

“Fun prison fact: in the 1930s, an inmate was stabbed during a prison riot and everyone

thought he was dead. Guards dragged him out and left him overnight in the morgue.

By morning, he woke up. Turns out the blade missed every major organ and the cold

slowed his bleeding just enough to keep him alive. He went back to his cell two days

later and survived prison long enough to be released years after. He later said the

scariest part wasn’t the stabbing (it was waking up surrounded by corpses).”
