Guo Liu 45 from the eastern Chinese province of Hubei, was a two pack a day smoker who whilst out having a drink with friends collapsed and later died after picking up a cigarette that he had dropped reports the Metro.
His friend Bo Ko said "We had been having a few dirnks and of course Liu had been smoking when he dropped one of the cigarettes on the ground. But when he bent down to pick it up he suddenly fell over unconscious. At First we thought he was fooling around as he can be a it of a joker. But the we realised he wasnt breathing and phoned for an ambulance."
The Metro goes on to report that after three month Guo's wife Qing Mai 40, was contacted by the hospital to say that her husband had died.But durring the preperations for the funeral friends and family heard him wheezing and they say he had tears in his eyes. They quickly got him back to the hospital and into intensive care.
A spokesman for the hospital is quoted as saying "I have never seen anything like this before. He will now be kept under constant observation until he recovers fully and we will then be able to assess just how bad the brain damage is. It is likely the his speech , memories and mobility will be severely affected though."
