Feng shui master buried alive in landslide at Hong Kong cemetery seconds after showing a family the ‘perfect burial plot’ for their relative’s grave. Per the Daily Mail

The family of recently deceased De Meng, 75, had invited the feng shui master Zheng Guoqiang, 55, to visit the cemetery to see which plot of land could be regarded as 'good land' for a family grave where De Meng could be buried.
After surveying the site he took the six members of the man's family to a place where he announced the vibrations and location was perfect for the grave.
According to the one person who survived, seconds later there was a landslide which buried all seven people, leaving six of them dead.
In a city where land is so scarce, many feel it is important to make the right choice when choosing an area for a project, whether that is building a property or finding a site for a grave.
Feng shui is widely used in China to orient buildings including tombs in an auspicious manner.
Depending on the particular style of feng shui being used, a favourable site could be determined by reference to local features such as water, stars, or via a compass.
Feng shui was suppressed in mainland China during the cultural revolution in the 1960s but since then has increased in popularity.
 
I don't know. Seems this is a guy who stands by (or lies under) his product. "Here, this is a perfect site for burying people. I know because I am Grand Feng Shui Master Zheong. Here, let me prove to you how anxious this site is for burials. Hold my opium pipe and watch this!"

I had the same thought. He may have slightly overdone it though, as the article says:

'According to the one person who survived, seconds later there was a landslide which buried all seven people, leaving six of them dead.' :jaw-dropp
 
Perfect place for a burial, it seems. No need for digging, or corpses even.
 
April fools?

I doubt it. Published a day late and featuring pictures of identifiable people and corpses (not identifiable corpses). I don't think the main stream press (I know it's the Daily Mail but even so) goes in for that kind of humour.
