Herbert Haupt and his coma
Herbert Haupt is an Austrian politician and former party chairman of the right-wing Austrian Freedom Party. He has been Minister of Social Services since 2000 in a coalition government headed by Wolfgang Schüssel. For half a year Haupt was even Vice Chancellor of Austria.
Haupt is notorious for his inability and/or unwillingness to answer journalists’ questions precisely. Also, in the past he has frequently changed his mind from one day to the next about major policy issues.
Now, as the Austrian parliament in Vienna is closed for the summer, Haupt seems to have some idle time to answer even more questions. And he is very precise in one issue: talking about his near-death experiences.
Haupt tells TV Media that he fell into coma twice in his life. The first time he just saw a (*yawn*) black tunnel and a bright light.
