Death at a Funeral

2010 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

During the funeral of Mr Edward Wojtas, one of the victims of the presidential plane crash in Smolensk, a tragic accident took place.

A man participating in the ceremony decided to cut in line (yes, at a funeral) and bypass a large crowd of mourners. He chose to jump over the fence of the cemetery in Lublin, Poland. The man jumped from the wall onto an old tomb (way to show your respect for the dead, especially if you are attending a funeral of one). Under the weight of his body the gravestone collapsed, he fell inside and died as a result of the injuries sustained.
