Funeral turns joyful

THE funeral of a 28-year-old waiter in southern Egypt turned into a celebration when he woke up after being declared dead. Hospital officials had pronounced dead Hamdi Hafez al-Nubi, from the village of Naga al-Simman in the southern province of Luxor, after he suffered a heart attack. A doctor sent to sign the death certificate at his home village discovered he was still alive and al-Nubi celebrated at his "funeral."
