Lenin's alive? Revolutionary's tomb rocks twitter

Social media users weren't quite sure what to make of an image of paramedics heading into the mausoleum at the heart of Moscow's Red Square, where the Russian revolutionary has been embalmed since 1924.

Axar.az reports that users spread the photo in the Russian section of Twitter, quipping lines like "Lenin's alive?", "Get ready bourgeois, Lenin has awakened!" and "Lenin called an ambulance yesterday."

Some users broke out into poetry and song, including Vladimir Mayakovsky's famous verse "Lenin lived, Lenin lives, Lenin is to live forever."

Others still took a shot at Russia's medical system, joking that this was a case of "Russian medicine in action," with paramedics "responding to a call made 100 years ago".
