A video circulating online claims to show a deceased woman in a coffin opening her eyes during a funeral, leading many to believe it is a real-life incident. However, this claim is false. The video is scripted and has no connection to any real events. It was intentionally created for entertainment purposes by content creator Arman Gatdula Macasusi.
