Those who have come back to life
The modern medicine would have you believe that we have advanced to incredible levels of understanding how the human body works and how to fix problems within it. And to a degree that is indeed the case - in comparison to where we were even a mere 50 years ago.
But yet our knowledge is still lacking severely as medical professionals still sometimes fail to even tell a dead person from one still alive. Recently that happened in South Africa to a female victim of a bad road accident[1]. Three people were declared dead on the scene by the ambulance rescue team; yet one of them was observed to be breathing after she was delivered to a local morgue and was subsequently rescued.
Down the road from us, in Ashland, Massachusetts, near Boston, a woman that was found immobile, without a pulse and other vital signs, in a cold bathtub was later observed making gurgling noises while in a body bag. She too was subsequently revived and rescued[2].
So in summary - pronouncing somebody dead is not as easy as you may think. And should you ever encounter a medical professional who is too confident and making claims to omniscience - well, you can certainly inform them that any such claims are hardly justified given how even telling a dead person from a living one is something modern medicine still gets wrong on occasion.

I just got the chills
Omg!
Imagine getting cremated and u wake up the second before
I’m gonna have nightmares tonight 😩
Well, there's many nightmarish scenarios in the world.
Actually, the cremation scenario above is probably one of the least nightmarish - that oven runs at about 2,000C if memory serves, that sort of temperature would kill you very quickly. Now if you are buried in the ground while still alive - you will suffocate for sure but that is not going to be a quick and easy death.
Now I’m gonna sleep well haha
😘
Thanks
Thanks a lot 😡
Horrifying! Imagine waking up in a grave.
