A young man fell into a state of coma, but recovered before his friends had buried him. One of them asked what it felt like to be dead.
"Dead!" he exclaimed. "I wasn't dead. And I knew I wasn't, because my feet were cold and I was hungry."
"But how did that make you sure?"
"Well, I knew that if I were in heaven I shouldn't be hungry, and if I was in the other place my feet wouldn't be cold."
一個年輕人昏死了過去，但是當他的朋友們要掩埋他的時候卻又甦醒過來。他的一個朋友問他死的感覺是怎樣的`。
“死!”他喊道“我並沒有死，我知道我沒死，因爲我的腳是涼的，而我又很餓。”
“你怎麼能肯定你沒死?”
“當然哪，我知道如果我上了天堂，我就不會覺得餓;如果我下到地獄，那我的腳就不會是涼的了。”
