Summary

In the 19th century, people would be buried in a coffin with a small string fed inside the coffin. This string would be attached to a bell above ground. If the person who was buried was interred by accident and was still very much alive, they would pull the string, ring the bell, and therefore let people above ground know that they weren't dead. This may sound silly to you, but after today's first story, it's actually a genius invention. Follow Be.

0:34.6	The story takes place in a very small town in the Mexican woodland area, where everyone's

1:10.9	You would have to walk at least like 20 to 40 meters away from the house to use them.
