Curses! My fool-proof plan would've worked, too, if it hadn't been for those mangy kids!

Being buried alive is a grave mistake.

Buzz: Sheriff, this is no time to panic.
Woody: This is a perfect time to panic!

It seems to also suggest hoping to be buried in a t-shirt.

Might be easier to wiggle out if you had fewer ribs.

Thanks for awakening my slumbering claustrophobia. I thought the whole premature burial scenario had been sufficiently covered in Kill Bill Vol. II. Since I can't take the time to go to Japan to study for several years under Kung Fu Master Pai Mei, in case I ever need to punch my way out of coffin, I may just have to get the new Apple Watch with cellular service.

There are some good ideas in Poe's story "The Premature Burial". Try not to be worried about the part where they don't seem to work.

Jeff Myrtlebank may be able to offer a few suggestions.

This has a disturbing sound of a frequent occurrence?!

I'm going to put these instructions in my burial suit to read at the right time.
