With all of the addictive reality shows on television these days, many people have been spending too much time at home in front of the television.
Here’s reason #52389543 to get up, get out and get some fresh air…
According to TheDailyRecordUK, the remains of a woman have been found sitting in front of her TV… 42 years after she was reported missing!
Hedviga Golik, who was born in 1924, had apparently made herself a cup of tea before sitting in her favorite armchair in front of her black and white television.
Authorities say Golik was last seen by neighbors in 1966, when she would have been 42 years old.
It had been a while since her neighbors had seen her, but they assumed she had moved out of her flat.
Years later… Golik?was found by police and bailiffs who’d broken in to help the authorities establish who owned the flat.
A police spokesman said:
“So far, we have no idea how it is possible that someone officially reported missing so long ago was not found before in the same apartment she used to live in.
“When officers went there, they said it was like stepping into a place frozen in time.
“The cup she had been drinking tea from was still on a table next to the chair she had been sitting in and the house was full of things no one had seen for decades. Nothing had been disturbed for decades, even though there were more than a few cobwebs in there.”
Neighbors were reportedly shocked by the discovery. ?One resident,?Jadranka Markic, was nine when Hedviga “vanished”.?She said:
“I still remember her. She was a quiet woman who kept herself to herself but was polite. We all thought that she had just moved out and gone to live with relatives.”
I don’t know what to make of this story… well, besides that fact that if you’re spending too much time in front of the tv, it could be you!
