Pretty crazy. This is apparently the only instance of a known and confirmed case of a perfectly preserved corpse without the aid of mummification process.

Dashi-Dorzho Itigilov (Russian: Даши-Доржо Итигэлов) (18521927) was a Buryat Buddhist lama of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, best known for the lifelike state of his body, which is not exposed to decay.
