The coroner was dead wrong!

A man who was pronounced dead after a motorcycle crash was found alive — in a fridge at a morgue in South Africa, according to a report Friday.

The unnamed man’s family was stunned to learn he was still kickin’ after they were called in to the state-run morgue to identify his body Tuesday — and noticed he was breathing, News 24 reported.

Mortuary staff proclaimed that he had “a pulse and [was] breathing,” a health official told the station.

In another strange twist, a local District Attorney was at the morgue at the time “conducting and oversight visit,” the official told the station.

The heart-stopping freezer flub sparked an internal investigation into who was at fault, said Sifiso Mtshali, who heads the department.

“The department can confirm that an internal inquiry is underway regarding this matter,” Mtshali said.

The bone-chilling unthawing is a “horrific event,” and “has again highlighted the extreme shortcomings within the health department’s mortuary services,” he said.

The man was rushed to Mahatma Gandhi Hospital, which is near the morgue. It’s unclear if he survived.
