Yes, a 94-year-old woman, who was declared dead by doctors after the latter couldn’t find a pulse on her body, suddenly sprang up asserting that she won’t die until she watches Germany winning the world cup, a report in Ananova said.

When told she had been declared dead by doctors, Maria Mueller the dead old woman replied: “Not likely, not until I see if Germany wins the World Cup. There's still life in these old bones yet, and I certainly couldn't miss the football.”

She was found slumped over in her chair by son Bernhard Mueller (66) at their home in Luegde, and she seemed dead after neither her son nor a local doctor could find a pulse.
