What about Terry Wallis - doctors said he would never wake up from his coma, yet you would hardly call that a "miracle", it's not as if he hopped out of bed and is living a normal life ya know....
I am not splitting the baby on this one. Once body tissue dies beyond repare it stays dead. Rigor mortis is a stage beyond reversal.
There have been cases where vital signs have not been detected and a misdiagnosis can happen. But as soon as that doctor said "rigor mortis" in the story, they were flat out lying.
No one survives rigor mortis. Body tissue is dead beyond any hope of reversal at that point.
I can accept stories of people coming out of long term commas. I can even accept stories where people survive cold water because it can slow down vitals. But that is not what the story claims in this case.
Please do not feed the woo mongers. This is garbage and a hoax and that doctor should lose his license and be sued.
