[post_page_title]”Saved by the bell”[/post_page_title]
Being saved by the bell generally refers to being saved by an interference in the nick of time. The origins of this expression are surprisingly pretty literal. There is the belief that the source of the phrase comes from the ancient fear of being buried alive.
If someone was erroneously pronounced to have passed on and was buried, they supposedly had a bell attached to the coffin which they could ring if they came to… and thus be saved by the bell.
