He awoke in fridge of morgue

A South African health official says a man awoke to find himself in a morgue fridge ---- nearly a day after his family thought he had died.
Health departments spokesman Sizwe Kupelo said yesterday that the man awoke Sunday afternoon, 21 hours after his family called in an undertaker who sent him to the morgue after an asthma attack.
Kupelo says the man started yelling, prompting morgue workers to run away in fear.  They eventually returned and removed him from the fridge.  He was then taken to a nearby hospital and later discharged by doctors.
The mortuary owner says his family is very happy to have him home.
