BREAKING: “Man Killed by Corpse of Dead Best Friend” — Tragic Death Stuns Limpopo Villagea
Reported by Sele Media Africa
A tragic twist of fate has rocked the quiet village of Ga-Kibi in Senwabarwana, Limpopo, South Africa, after a man died in an unimaginable accident—crushed by the coffin of his own best friend during a burial ceremony.
The heartbreaking incident occurred as mourners gathered to lay the deceased to rest. The victim, a close friend of the late man, was one of several individuals assisting in lowering the coffin into the grave when the wooden casket slipped from their hands. In a split-second tragedy, he fell into the open pit, and the heavy coffin landed on him, causing fatal injuries instantly.
Mourners watched in horror, their grief turning to shock and confusion. Amid the chaos, the late man’s mother made a chilling revelation: her son and the now-deceased friend had once vowed they would “depart this world together”—a statement now haunting the entire village.
Community elders, local leaders, and safety experts have since raised concerns about the lack of safety protocols during traditional burials. One community safety officer noted, “Grief is already too much for families. The pain of losing two lives in one funeral is devastating—and preventable.”
Calls are now growing for funeral services across rural areas to adopt modern lowering devices and safety measures to avoid further tragedies.
What was meant to be a farewell between friends turned into an unthinkable double burial—a painful reminder of how quickly fate can change everything.
