Dolly reveals she has seen her fair share of shocking endings. Though old age remains the most common cause of death in her line of work, Dolly has encountered a dizzying variety of deadly mishaps. She’s seen the results of skydiving gone wrong, steamrolling accidents, mining disasters, plane crashes, and even decapitations.
Each body that rolls into her morgue tells a different and sometimes horrifying story. Her firsthand experience with these grisly deaths has given her a dark but grounded perspective on life’s fragility.
Colorado Morgue Tech Reveals Death Can Come In The Strangest Ways
Dolly issues a warning to the elderly. Put down the steak knife. According to the Colorado morgue worker, steak is one of the most dangerous foods for aging adults, and she’s seen far too many patients end up in the morgue after choking on it.
“You can’t chew anymore,” she explained. Choking deaths from steak are sadly common. “You’re going to choke and die, and then you end up in the morgue. And I have to retrieve it from your esophagus. It is disgusting.”
While steak tops her list of food-related fatalities, Dolly also cautions against tempting fate in violent altercations. Her haunting advice: never utter the words, “What are you gonna do? Stab me?” or “Shoot me?” to anyone. According to her, those exact phrases have preceded far too many violent deaths, and she’s been the one to examine the aftermath.
She didn’t name names, but the pattern is so common it’s become its own kind of morgue folklore. Dolly the Colorado morgue tech, reveals her stories aren’t for the faint of heart. But they serve as real, spine-tingling reminders.
Life is fragile, death is weirdly creative. And sometimes, dinner can kill you. So chew slowly, keep your temper in check, and maybe don’t make steak night a regular thing after 70. Because, according to Dolly, the morgue is full of people who didn’t think that would be their last bite or their last words.
