Description

This week on Dead or Survive, Cheryl shares not one — but two nearly unbelievable stories of women who were buried alive by their partners... and survived.

First, we revisit the shocking 2011 case of Michelina Lewandowska, a mother who was tasered, bound, stuffed in a cardboard box, and buried in a shallow grave — only to escape using her engagement ring as a tool.

Then Cheryl brings you a more recent and chilling case: Young Sook An, who escaped a woodland grave in Washington in 2022 after being duct-taped, stabbed, and left for dead by her estranged husband.

Both stories are raw, terrifying, and inspiring reminders of what real survival looks like.

Then Rob is back with a change of pace — delivering Darwin Award winners who showed us how not to handle electricity, water, and a shocking misunderstanding of physics.
