This is the moment a corpse fell out the back of a coroner’s van onto a busy road in a US town on Friday.
Stunned motorists looked on as the dead body lay on a trolley after the door malfunctioned on a transport van.
Local newspaper, the Bucks County Courier Times reported the accident occurred around noon on Friday near a popular shopping centre in Feasterville, Pennsylvania.
It is reported that the driver quickly realised what had happened and retrieved the body within minutes. However, not before someone had captured the unfortunate moment on camera.
