A grandfather from Dublin, Ireland set up a “funeral prank” before he died, and his hijinks have now been watched by millions after it went viral online.
On Saturday, mourners gathered around Shay Bradley’s coffin watching it lower into the ground as bagpipes played at a graveyard in Dublin’s south.
When the music stopped, the grandfather-of-eight’s voice could be heard saying “Hello” as frantic knocking appeared to come from the coffin.
“Let me out, it’s f—— dark in here,” the late 62-year-old was heard saying to laughter from mourners.
His daughter Andrea was in on the prank and helped arrange the stunt with her siblings.
The family said Mr Bradley had planned the prank for months and recorded the messages before he died.
The siblings shared the video on social media with the hashtag #ShaysLastLaugh.
