Putting The Cough Into Coffin.

This is a tragi-comedy. We're in the townships of South Africa which has the worst accident record anywhere in the world. This probably has something to do with the fact that they drive at 90mph in badly maintained cars and buses on badly maintained dirt roads.

Two brothers had to go into town to pick up a coffin some hundred miles away as a relative had died recently (probably in a car crash) Anyway they finally got to their destination, probably in an hour. So they picked a coffin out which had some nice padding and put it in the back of their pick-up truck. The brother that had driven down was knackered and said he'd lie in the coffin to get some sleep. He pulled the lid closed to protect him from the heat of the sun.

They tore along and on the way the brother that was driving stopped for four hitch-hikers. Two jumped in the front and two jumped in the back. About an hour later the brother in the coffin fully refreshed, opened the lid. The guys just freaked completely and jumped out and were killed instantly. You can imagine the consternation of the two other hitch-hikers when they discovered their friends had disappeared.
