I'm too lazy to look it up on the nets.
When it comes to the resurrection story, each one is comically different. The Brick Testament really underscores this point by merging all the versions together, giving it a "one day in the middle of the night..." feel:
The Brick Testament's "The Empty Tomb":

Now the hundreds of witnesses claim doesn't come from the story of Jesus but the letters of Paul. In 1Cor 15, he tells the story that Jesus appeared to 500 witnesses. Who these people are is anyone's guess.
Quote:1Cor 15:4-6 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
