Hugh Osborn, a student at the University of Warwick, recently stumbled across just such a tragedy.

Yep. The fallen packet of digestives had actually been made into a shrine, complete with a candle and a note reading, "Sorry for your loss".

Things escalated quickly from there.

Then, came a twist. Another group, who claimed to be the creators of the original shrine, tweeted a solemn prayer group around the disaster.
