Idiot nearly dies trying to mail himself in a box to his girlfriend

Some birthday gift ideas are better than others – and some are just unbelievably stupid. Take the case of a guy named Hu Seng, from southern China. Hu thought it would be fabulous to surprise his girlfriend on her birthday by mailing himself to her in a sealed box. Unfortunately, the box got lost in transit for three hours, and when Hu's girl opened it in front of friends, she found him passed out and near death from lack of oxygen, the Sun reports. Mercifully, paramedics were able to revive Hu, who said the cardboard had been "too thick" for an air hole. Speaking of too thick, if someone wants to get Hu's girl a great gift next year, may we suggest a smarter boyfriend? [Source]
