Crazy fact.. The saying saved by the bell came from renaissance era when it was not always easy to determine if a person was actually dead. Some people were mistakenly buried alive, so they installed bells attached to a string that led into the coffin, in case the person woke up. This is also what led to the term, "graveyard shift" , since someone had to stay at the graveyard all night to listen for the bell. _MissOdessa
