'Dead man' turns up at his own funeral after mix-up

- BY TOM MCGHIE

A “DEAD” man arrived at his own funeral, telling shocked mourners: “I’m alive!”

The 22-year-old admitted he'd been on a drinking spree for several days and was unaware of what was happening at home.

And mourners were then left wondering who was in the coffin in front of them.

The mix-up began when a young man was hit by a lorry on September 18 in Argentina.
