When my father died, my 9 year old grandson wanted to tell him goodbye. For him that meant kissing or touching the body. He understood my father was dead. He didn't understand what the condition of the perfect looking body would be like. Since he didn't get that opportunity, I send a message to the family so they could possibly help explain it to him. I was very honest. Dad wasn't in that body anymore so the body was not warm and felt stiff. He could remember and say goodbye to him by watching the video made for the family members. Those videos celebrate the life of the person who has passed. I think they are a great way to remember and watch over and over.

Sky burial is not qs common now a days in Nepal (I am surprised you even know about it, even most Nepalese dont even know about it. We have those in specific areas. Mostly the North Western region of Nepal in proximity to Tibet.
But we do set bodies on fire by placing it on top of wood. We also bury bodies. There are some culture who bury the body along with a chicken. There is also a group which buries body not lying in a sleeping position but in a sitting position.
Its fascinating.

As a kid I hated the way everyone acted at funerals and I always thought people shouldn't be so depressed at a funeral but they should be talking about how great they was when they was alive and how they made a change in their life etc. Standing around crying is just ridiculous because nobody does that in any other situation when something happens, like a birthday or anniversary, it just seems weird to me even though I grew up in that kind of culture.

Once when I was visiting a local cemetery with my dad, out of the blue he said, hey, did you know they're going to extend the cemetery? And I was like really? And with a grin he responded, yeah, people are dying to get in. I should have seen it coming, but the dad joke caught me completely off guard. Couldn't help but think of this while watching.

My mom died a couple of years ago; after spreading her ashes we went to a restaurant. Outside of the limits of restrictions at the time, it was pleasant. Got to reconnect with family/friends.
Come to think of it, most times that I ve been a part of a funeral there is always food. A celebration of life!

Hey Victor, Do you think someone in the Gothic subculture has a chance in the embalming and funeral industry? I'm very interested but I'm so worried of being stigmatized. I don't mind toning down my appearance with some small minor individual flair(subtle)

In my husband's village (in germany) the common practice was actually to re-intern the person deeper in the grave after thirty years so the burial plot was available again. After 60 years. there usually isn't anything left in that soil to worry about.

I want a question answered. I love my husband and if he goes before me, I would like to have him taxidermied, then when I pass, have him cremated and put in the same casket with me. I live in south Carolina, USA. Is this possible for me to have done

I've always wondered about whether someone who is morbidly obese can still be cremated. Is there a size limit? Not to be crude, but wouldn't the fat cause flare ups like when you grill a steak? Wouldn't that damage the cremation chamber?

Never did I think I'd be this excited to hear a mortician talk about death and everything around it, but here I am. I don't know how Victor did it, but he did something. A video of him demystifying death is, honestly, a joy to watch.

I truly love when you're in a video. So many of us have experienced death. I don't know if you ever hear this but I'm not afraid to die. When we die it's over for us but the people we leave behind are the ones that suffer.

Victor was one of the funeral directors for my dad s funeral. He is this kind and knowledgeable irl and it made the process so much easier. We had no idea he did these videos until we came across this today, super cool!

Man was really hungry or having a stomach upset throughout the episode. You can hear stomach grumbling around 6: 12, 7: 30, 8: 19, 12: 21, and probably in more places. Eating too many dead people can do that.

I got respect for him and his profession. I am terrified of death, and have struggled since adulthood with coming to terms with mortality. They really should have free access to therapy options.

I wonder if there is a funeral-related expo where companies showcase different funeral-related products and services. I'm imagining a company showcasing a service where they cast an entire body in resin.

I'll never get why in the US you make people into mummies if they just end up being buried.
All this embalming stuff is super unnecessary just put people the fridge if time is an issue.
