    Only in Indonesia (especially Toraja), a corpse is usually being carried up to the grave, but in Toraja, the corpse is woken up letting it tol walk to its grave (is rarely performed anymore)

    The corpse is woken up using black magic. This is done because in Toraja the graves/cemetries is placed above limestones mountains.

    The corpse walks by itself, and its guided by an expert in black magic behind it. But there is one prohibition, the corpse shouldn’t be appointed, once pointed, the corpse falls down and isn’t able to walk again.

    Creepy sh1t :eek:

    Looks authentic enough. Probably some horrible tropical disease. We're lucky as fcuk in Ireland even with the state of the economy. Most of us have food in our bellies, a roof over our heads and a steady supply of fresh water. No real natural disasters, relatively safe from serious infectious diseases and little chance of getting murdered in comparison to other countries.

    I call photoshop. The corpse is judging by the decay a good six months after death. Hey if some guys can do this, then the whole magic/afterlife is fully confirmed.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Reminds me of a better looking Amy Winehouse.

    That looks a lot like the guy called the "Treeman" on discovery channel who has a disease that causes the person to look like their skin is turning to bark. This http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epidermodysplasia_verruciformis

    Good point. Could be leprosy? That would explain the skin discoloration and loss of facial structure alright. Though AFAIK the fingers tend to be lost at that advanced stage?

    Woah, woah, woah.

    The OP may have been on "the largest image board in the English language" i.e. 4chan over the last few days where this story (and it's an old one) has grown legs and spread across the interwebs. It's just a dead body they take out of a coffin and stand up. Then they take a picture of and then claim that it walked around the gaff. I saw the other photo's in that set and it's real clear that the bodies are being held up.

    Seriously fake

    Your link doesn't show the other pics in the set,so a bit hard to judge. I don't doubt it's all fake,I just like looking at gory ****.

    Rigor only sets in for a temporary period of time, it's gone after about 48 hours.

    Well i would say it is genuine for one reason and that is the length of the hair which apparently keeps growing for months after you die.
