A viral TikTok video claiming to show a young man waking up moments after being declared dead has been spreading on social media for several months now. The video, which first showed up on TikTok in mid-2025, shows a man sitting on a stretcher in a hospital gown. People say he came back to life after being dead. Many have called this the “real-life zombie” case.
The man in the video has been called Keadaan Salloum in different posts, though his name is spelled in many ways on social media. Some write it as Kadan Salum, Kayanne Salum, or Keadan Salloum. On July 18, Instagram user @historytimeless posted about Salloum and said that hospital staff looked shocked as he sat there looking confused. The video later shows him walking out of the room. Some people claim he walked right out of the hospital.
