Of course rigor mortis doesn't set in and we're talking about "clinical death" where the patient has no signs of life (no pulse, no breathing), and it can last a number of hours. The body has simply decided to shut itself down and then starts back up later.
Yes, but that still is not what that doctor claims in this particular case. As soon as he mentioned "rigor mortis" he was flat out lying. Again, he should lose his license and be sued and bard from practice in the future.
I said in my early post that people often "seem dead" but are not past the window in reality. This is merely very minute flying under the radar. I agree.
BUT ONCE AGAIN, the story claims that this woman survived rigor mortis. FLAT OUT LIE.
And the Fox reporters should be fired for not doing their ethical job by exposing this con for the con it was. But this is exactly how Fox makes it's money. Preys on the credulity and desperation of the viewer.
