Officials at a hospital in Russia are trying to figure out how a woman was able to die at her own funeral. The "Daily Mail" is reporting that the 49-year-old woman died of a heart attack while mourning relatives gathered around her coffin. She was reportedly shocked to wake up and discover that everyone was saying their final goodbyes. She then suffered a heart attack and died a short time later. The woman's husband says he thought his wife had died from a heart attack when she collapsed in their kitchen after complaining of chest pains. Doctors at the hospital also thought she was dead, thus leading her family to plan a funeral. A spokesman for the hospital says they are now conducting an investigation into the incident.
