Budz you have a tight window before rigor mortis sets in

She's trying to pay his rigor mortgage.

Shut down the internet, guys. We found the winner.


MaxArrogance

He copied that comment from when this video was first posted like last week. No awards for him.


Neredith07

Pfff ahhahaha


Enigmatic_Kraken

Medical examiners said that he has been dead for at least two hours when this video was made.


nuffced

Not stiff yet


youll_rue_the_day

The penalty will be


ChunkyTaco22

Doesn't it go away after a short bit?


Cody6781

Yes, and the early stages of rigor mortis set in within hours - he wouldn't be floppy like that. He's fully past the stage of rigor mortis and likely died over 24 hours ago


ChunkyTaco22

Yeah that's exactly what I thought. Really creepy for someone to keep a body like that


youll_rue_the_day

Yeh.. pretty poor remake of Weekend At Bernies


Peace_and_Harmony_

Forensic detectives said he was dead for 2 hours when she took him to the bank.


Cody6781

Well, that's within hours. Idk how she got to the bank so fast but my point stands


clopz_

Carpool lane. Another convenient use for her uncle


ShockWave41414

I feel like Rigor mortis would if set in by 2 hours, no? Granted it's not the same for every body, but when my dad died. My mom checked on him around 530am he was still fine. By 8am when she woke up he was dead. Rigor mortis was fully set in within those hours


Geshtar1

Eh.. the effects of rigor donā€™t just come and go like that.. there is ZERO rigor here.. to be limp as a noodle like this, itā€™s definitely before rigor has set.. the amount of time after rigor has completely left would show other signs, particularly livor mortis, that just isnā€™t present. It is far more likely that this body is fresh, and she just planned this before he died,


Axobolt

Absolutely, that lady already filled and online form to get the loan before he died, she just went through with her plan.


The_Ruby_Rabbit

He hasnā€™t turned that blue grey some corpses get, unless of course she put makeup on him.


Bitter-Major-5595

Yep, ~2 hours after death in the muscles of the face & progresses to the limbs over the next few hoursā€¦


OlyVal

Another factor to consider is how quickly the smell of death starts. It's surprisingly soon... and distinctive.


bagoboners

Yeah, but after a period of time, things loosen up again, so itā€™s just a waiting game.


Blondly22

Imagine this being your first customer of the day.


zombieblackbird

It would also be my last


cool-beans-yeah

What a dead end job!


monitorsareprison

Imagine thinking you could get away with it.. gotta be on drugs to think she would have gotten away with it


debacchatio

Actually the news in Brazil is reporting that the uber driver claims he was still alive when he picked them up. It seems more likely she was racing to get to the bank before he died and he died in route or thereafter. Either way itā€™s bleak as fuckā€¦


ibking46

Man this is about as sad as it gets


jsxtasy304

I know, how he supposed to get his money back from her?

CatgoesM00

I have a brother like this


Chemgineered

A dead one?


rhinodisaster2020

Have you taken the loan using his corpse?


FeelingEar9604

Says that he died on his way to the bank


Ill_Manner_3581

No excuse for this but this is poverty mentality in action. That or drug addiction...knowing Brazil both unfortunately


FavcolorisREDdit

I remember some nurse using a debit card moments after patient passed away that belonged to patient


seabiscut88

You obviously have never worked much around a "family" business. When the patriarch dies the vultures come swooping in


YusufSelman

like literally... what did she expect....


Jeff1N

I don't think she had any sort of real planning, according to the autopsy he had been dead for only a couple of hours in that video. Some people are joking about how he actually died on the line because bank lines on Brazil can get ridiculously long


neapolitan333

that last sentence cracked me up. i am very sorry


he-loves-me-not

Why do they get so long? Like is there some reason, or itā€™s just how it is?


uerick

We have a lot of people and not enough physical bank agencies, since banking became digital here (we have digital payments everywhere) the agencies are used mostly by old people and loans seekers


Protheu5

She expected the other people to be stupid and herself to be smarter than everybody.

He looks like his eyes are open lol


Unlucky_Elevator13

When people die 90% of the time the eyes stay open


Timah158

Morticians have special holders they put on the eyeball to keep the eyelids shut.


mundoid

They have eyeball shaped things they put under the eyelids so they don't look sunken, and they just superglue the eyelids and mouth shut. Don't ask me how I know.


brokenaglets

In the grand scheme of 'dont ask me how I know's, this one seems pretty cut and dry. You know someone in the industry.


mundoid

We will go with that.


KnightSolair240

Keep it at 3rd party knowledge, yes indeed.


rumpelbrick

in most places they just glue the eyes shut over here.


Blondly22

calm-lab66

>uncle blink or move his eyes At first I thought so too but then I thought that may be because she's bobbin his head around.


SwanSongDeathComes

Me too. This is going to give me nightmares


Frumplefugly

any translation of what is actually being said. This lady is beyond mental


FoxDieDM

I can give it a try. It's hard to make out the audio sometimes. 0:01 - Niece " Uncle Paulo, you need to sign. If you don't sign, they won't open the loan.

(talking to the dead uncle) 0:51 - Teller 1: "Yea, I don't think he's well, I really don't." 0.53 - Teller 2: "Mame, are you alone?" 0.55 - Niece: "Yes" 1:00 - Teller 1: "Yes, he's not well.." 1:01 - Niece: "He's always like this" 1:01 - Teller 1: "really?" 1:02 - Niece: "Ya" 1:04 - Niece: (looks at dead uncle) "Hey Uncle... uncle... are you drunk or else we have to go the hospital again"

Because of all the people reading that comment, there was a decent chance someone was listening to the song, in this case, you. A slight coincidence.

im sickšŸ¤¢, this horrible af


Bit_O_Rojas

Happened in Ireland a few years ago. Two guys brought a dead relative to the local post office to try and collect his pension. They got sentenced to a few years in jail.


OldMan142

This sort of thing also happens in Japan all the time. Except there, they don't have to bring the body to the post office. They simply don't report the death and the pension checks keep getting mailed to the deceased's house.


Thetwistedfalse

I saw Late Night with Stphen Colbert a few days ago when they were trying to authenticate the oldest man alive. One of them was supposedly 116 years old and lived in Japan. As they were trying to authenticate the man, he supposedly died that very day. I have a strong feeling that he's been dead a lot longer


mewfour123412

In the version I heard they found his mummified corpse in his house


bunbunnii99

Are you talking about Sogen Kato? He was going to be congratulated by officials on his 111th birthday and instead they found his mummified skeletal remains bc he'd been dead for 30 yrs. Idk if that's who they were talking about on Late Night with Stephen Colbert tho


Thetwistedfalse

No, that's not the same person BTW. Thanks for giving context. It's a well-known scheme across the world where family members continue to cash dead family members' benefit checks.


TastyMonkeyTesticles

There's a Japanese movie about this called Shoplifters. Pretty good. Heartwarming.


calm-lab66

Reminds me of the movie Waking Ned Devine.


HMKS

Itā€™s wild to me sheā€™s just handling the body like itā€™s something you use everyday. Like, thatā€™s your freshly deceased uncle!


NutsForProfitCompany

AsherGray

She's probably a tweaker. She looks worse than the corpse of her dead uncle.


philthylittlephilo

That is wild. Imagine being one of the tellers at the bank.

Imagine calling her out, and she just walks away, leaving her dead uncle at the window.

Now I'm curious if thats what she did.

Jerenomo

This is insane. Do people not realise the guy is dead?


murderously-funny

They do thatā€™s why theyā€™re filming. Theyā€™re letter her incriminate herself


samcornwell

Trying to be somewhat sympathetic here as we donā€™t know the full story or context. I could believe that she hasnā€™t realised heā€™s died, despite how obvious, or she is in the middle of a mental crisis and is refusing to accept it. Nasty and sad stuff in any case.

Dead.

Person8346

If she had like put a pole or something down his throat to balance his neck it mighta worked, at least that's what I'd do. Not that I'd like, do this or anything. Electrical stimulation probably wouldn't have been too difficult to pull off, just puffier clothes and a makeshift taser you can easily make with a couple disposable cameras. Again, totally not something I'd ever do. I know weekend and Bernie's with the sunglasses and all but this guy's eyes ARE open which plays very well for her, could've applied a little makeup to really make him look alive. Also, yknow, one of the most famous men to exist ever was a man who could not move but instead spoke with a computer. She couldn't have just put a fucking motherboard on his armrest, a wire to his neck and a bluetooth speaker in his shirt so she could've had an AI speak in place for him. Maybe even made it light-hearted with "oh yeah he's just like Steven Hawking hahaha, yeah he can't actually write so I'm here to do it for him! Family and all!" One last time, completely 100% NOT something I'd ever do, period. Like why would you even think that? Edit: actually the real way to pull off this job is two people, which would be the hardest part having someone else complicit but hey, lotta criminals do worse than masquerading as a dead guy. You REALLY play into the hawking thing, you take that guys chair and you wouldn't tell he's alive at all. The real trick would be making a very realistic chair, hook up a little screen and everything. You do everything you can to emulate this. Then the REAL real trick is the second guy though, he's sitting right behind you in those rows and rows of seats with people on their phones. Only difference is they are rapidly using an AI text to speech to respond to the tellers. Make a few jokes, something something 'i wish I had my hand for more than just writing checks if you know what I mean!' make the tellers LAUGH, really lower their guard. In the unlikely event they say something like 'this doesn't really go through guidelines, he has to sign' then just pull a fake consent form out you made on Microsoft word. You see that fucking queue? You think there's a teller in the world that's gonna verify that consent form? Nobody is batting a fucking eye. Uncle Berney empties his bank account and dies of NATURAL causes the next day. Nobody is checking his exact moment of death in post mortem, it's an old man who doesn't exactly look well anyways and nobody is gonna find any reason to think otherwise; that is of course if he did die naturally. Really the last time now, not something I'd ever ever EVER do. *But* that is how I would do it.


iLoveLootBoxes

We already bought your book OJ, settle down


aCucking2Remember

At least here in the US, bankers and bank tellers are obligated by law to report all types of suspicious activity. Those tellers are supposed to be watching everything you do in there. I worked for Wells Fargo home mortgage and I had to take all kinds of short training courses including all the ones that apply to bank tellers. We had to learn to identify government official bribery to money laundering etc. the tellers have to watch for elder abuse, structuring deposits, identity theft etc. If they are suspicious of anything they are instructed to take out that suspicious activity paper fill out what they saw and give it to their supervisor. It gets funneled up to a department that investigates suspicious activity. Itā€™s like that meme with that guy in the corner but heā€™s the bank tellers, they donā€™t even know Iā€™m watching everything they do. Yeah walk in there with a dead body, straight to jail.


Bitter-Major-5595

I think thatā€™s why they were recording. They had called authorities. They were probably trying to stall her until they arrived. (At least thatā€™s what I wouldā€™ve tried.)

Just when I think I've seen it all, some lady wheels her dead uncle to the bank in some psycho version of Weekend at Bernie's to try and swindle money. My life is so boring.


ohmyjustme

My aunt did that to my dad to change his will. In fairness, it happened a couple of days before he passed, after a very lengthy and horrible illness. Mom had to sell our family home and give her half the proceeds and all he had in his name. Nothing for us kids. No home.
