- LASCARI, Sicily (Reuters)
- Giovanni Greco sent himself, literally, to an early grave.
-
- Greco, 63, was so keen that his future mausoleum would
be a perfect fit that he liked to visit it ensure the builders were making
it just right.
-
- But his latest visit proved to be his last.
-
- According to local media reports, Greco was making his
regular trip to the construction site in the small cemetery in his hometown
of Lascari at the weekend.
-
- He climbed a ladder to get a better view of the top of
the mausoleum when he slipped, hit his head on a marble step, and fell
into his own tomb.
