After a while he regained these abilities, and his mother heard him shouting, fuck, bitch, shit. She wandered why he was shouting, so she wandered upstairs and found him eating a whole block of cheese.

He used his new language to his advantage, and started studying in China, and even hosted a Chinese game show. He is now happily settled in Shanghai.

A man was in a coma for a whole year before being awoken by the sweet smell of a 100 Yuan bill, worth 16 dollars. He was in an internet Café for a week without sleep, researching business ideas, when he suddenly collapsed, and fell into a coma. After a year the doctors began to get desperate, and were willing to try anything. Eventually they found out he had a love for cash, and starting waving money around him, they used change, and notes, but eventually it was the notes under the nose that woke him up.

Rory Curtis was in a coma for six days, after a serious car accident. When he woke up he was convinced he was Hollywood actor, Matthew McConaughey. He also woke up speaking fluent French even though he hadn’t spoken it for 12 years. He didn’t even take french for his GCSE’s.  He was shocked the first time he looked in the mirror after waking up because he didn’t look like Matthew McConaughey. Even after seeing his face was different it took him a few days to realize he wasn’t Matthew McConaughey. He said he couldn’t wait to get back out there, and start acting in big films again.
