Your shirt can be used to protect you from suffocating on loose earth. Unfortunately, rearranging your wardrobe in such a small space requires some strategy. Cross your arms over your chest, and then uncross your arms so that your elbows are bent and your hands are at your shoulders. Pull your shirt up and over your head from the shoulders, do a partial sit-up as much as you can in the space available , and then pull your shirt over your head and off.
Tie the bottom of the shirt in a knot. The shirt should have only one large opening, at the neck, like a bag. Pull the shirt over your head through the neck hole. The knot should be on the top of your head. This makeshift mask will protect you as you climb to the surface. Using your feet, begin kicking the coffin lid. A cheap coffin may have already split from the weight of the earth above, making your job easier.
Break apart the lid with your hands and feet, and let the loose dirt rush in. Have you field tested this methodology? Your Mother needs to be told you said that and quickly! Good god. Just an awful thing to say. And in this day and age, frightening to this other mother! I think it might depend on what you offer. I was on a Ferris Wheel once that had broken down. My seat device was at the very top of the wheel when it broke down.
In an attempt to get it to going again they would run it backwards and then slam it to a stop. I got off OK. A few years later my wife tried to get me to go back on one. It was a fairly new one. I still refused. It could happen only if you were sent to a crooked funeral home. A place that charges for embalming but does not do it.
Thank you so much for posting this!!!! I have been Recieving daily threats of being buried alive, for the last 36 years. I finally feel prepared, in the event that it actually happens. Is it like a jilted ex boyfriend or something? Or were you joking lols. Thank you for posting! I actually had to get up and walk around — to remove myself from the mental imagery it evoked.
But hyperventilation and singing would cause loss of consciouness in under 4 minutes which could feel like four hours if you let it … and then, you die. But what i did different was i took of my shoes because they where heavy and where sinking into the dirt while my feet where flat and stood firmer.
Umm, please explain further? Are you serious? If I ever catch myself trying to bury a midget. It will take place in a sandbox. So he to can try out your methods. I am a writer needing this info and I appreciate it. BUT what about the concrete box into which coffins by law have to be buried?
But, as stated, at least this gives you something to do rather than just freak out the whole time. They also do alot of things to corpse such as- Draining the body of ALL FLUIDS Drying everything out Dont ask me how They sew your lips and eyes closed They place metal rods in you to keep a solid pose And Lastly they fill your body with a jelly substance so it preserves the body longer.
Why do they do all that? And is it to take away any chances of you waking up or to just check that you really are dead? O And do they have to do that by law? Do they have to embalm in the UK? Or have to do all of what you just said in the UK?
If you can then how common is it? Taphephobia…even the thought sends chills up my spine. I have been seeing a therapist, she assures me that no one would ever do this to me but I cant help it… I just feel like i wear the horror of it on my face and that someone might just conspire against me and curse my fleeting final moments with the torment of being Buried Alive. I make sure i am kind and humble to others because i fear that some one could and would do this to me.
The paranoia is severe and honestly, I feel this has happen to me in a past life. I really hope that one day i am free from the intrusive thoughts and night terrors before I am inevitably put there for eternity….
Thank you for the article and Im sorry for the personal rant. But something occurred to me as I was reading this, the author said use the cell phone if your family happen to bury you with it. Things to possibly include could be: a cell phone, spare battery s or a portable cordless phone charger many have stored energy that depletes after you plug the phone in , an axe to break the coffin, an oxygen tank, a collapsible ladder, etc.
Pretty morbid to think about but could literally save your life in case this horror situation happens. Ring The Bell! This kind of knowledge is for when you piss off the wrong person and wind up 6 feet under. Then why would you call for help if you managed to get above ground?
So the murderers can come back to shove you back under? This is just a joke and should not be taken seriously all tho it might work. These comments gave me cancer. Seriously, get a life and stop worrying about shlt that wont happen to you.
The writer of this obviously has more time on their hands than you could shake a shltty stick at. Thanks god I am a Hindu….. And 99 percent of Hindus cremate their dead…. No chance to get buried alive…. Proud and feeling safe to be a Hindu…. A fun read for those not able to extract fact from fiction.
Firstly, the article is fiction. It would be impossible for a person to extract themselves from a coffin buried under six feet of normal soil. I am writing this under the assumption that your living body was simply dropped into a cheap pine coffin and buried six feet deep—no autopsy and no attempt to preserve the body were performed.
Then you may go to 15 hours. It would continue to fall even if you did nothing. Dirt is naturally self compacting. Soon you would not be able to inhale as the pressure surrounding your chest would prevent movement. There are additional salient point here that would place an additional burden on any attempt to extract your self from six feet under dirt, but the above makes escape so highly unlikely the remaining points do not need to be delineated.
If the author is so convinced that his article is the real deal, I challenge him to attempt it. Look here for a Myth busters challenge. Mythbusters attempted something like this recently, and even with a breathing mask, it was impossible to 1 — break out of a coffin with hundreds of pounds of dirt on top of you, and 2 — even if you somehow managed to break out of the coffin, the weight of the dirt above you would almost certainly crush you.
They even tried it by having the person start out in a squatting position to eliminate the problems with maneuvering your body into a vertical position to push up through the dirt.
In short, its all but impossible at feet. Well, if you get buried alive than you should stay calm and just ask god to forgive you of your sins and that you belive he died for you. Just ask god to save you from sin. Just in case you dont get out so that you have a chance to be with jesus.
Last night I watched the movie Buried. I can only imagine the sheer horror of actually being in that situation. Because if you are buried alive you are Also its pretty guaranteed that no one has a clue where you could be to even begin searching for you. We'll use that as the internal volume too, to give you a few extra minutes of life. And the average volume of a human body is 66 liters. That leaves liters of air, one-fifth of which liters is oxygen. If a trapped person consumes 0. Once you're in there, you're in there," says Alan R.
Leff, professor emeritus at University of Chicago in the pulmonary and critical care department. That's because the coffin is probably well-sealed, not to mention buried under 6 feet of soil.
Even if you were able to get out of the coffin without exhausting your air supply first, you'd find yourself in a situation similar to being buried in a mega-landslide or avalanche.
The dirt would be so dense and heavy that your chest wouldn't be able to expand. Not long after, she was presumed dead. Only 16 hours later, her body was lowered six feet underground. Though no breath was apparent when a lit candle was placed under her nose , distinct rhythmical sounds could be heard in her chest, and she exhibited some muscle contraction and eyelid twitching.
After locating no pulse, the doctors declared Hays dead, and three days later, he was buried. But because of an investigation helmed by a local insurance company, his body was exhumed two days after the funeral.
