Old Lady Trapped in Bed!
An Old Lady Died After Being Trapped in a Sleep Number Bed!
There are a lot of horrible ways to die. We have talked about many of them. Today, we learned about another way to go involving your bed. Who knew that this was even possible. We’re still not even 100% sure what happened to this woman in her bed.
According to NYPost, “An Illinois grandmother tragically died after she got trapped by her malfunctioning Sleep Number bed for two whole days, a new lawsuit alleges. The tragedy unfolded when Rosalind “Roz” Walker’s mattress suddenly “lowered itself without warning” in her Godfrey home on March 1 last year — pinning the 80-year-old against her wall, the suit claims. Walker wasn’t freed until roughly 48 hours later when emergency crews responded to her home and then rushed her to a nearby hospital, the court papers charge.”
What a horrible way to die. We were trying to figure out the logistics of the scenario and what actually happened. How was she pinned against the wall? Was she behind the bed, maybe cleaning, and it extended out? Or was it fold down on top of her while she was lying in bed? We don’t know.
What we do know is that it couldn’t have sounded great. Chuck gives us a pretty realistic representation of what it would have sounded like for this old lady in her final moments.
We looked up video of a Sleep Number bed in order to see what could have gone wrong. And, we can’t help but laugh at the upbeat music playing in the background. It does not fit the tragic story we are talking about, but Chucks’ death noises are really funny with the music playing underneath.
Stay safe out there people. Just when you think you’re safe to go to sleep comfortably.
