Would you consider the Extreme Embalming Package Sir? What?!

in news •  6 years ago  (edited)

Can you believe these are all dead people and these pictures are actually at the wake or viewing after they are dead? That’s right, the oldest Funeral Home in New Orleans, Louisiana has become even more popular because of their “extreme embalming” packages for the dead. Family members pay extra to have their deceased loved ones embalmed and then staged into the exact person they remember. It even includes all the things that were regularly around them, such as a Can of Coke, Cigarettes, Doritos or other items.

It almost seems if the pictures are faked they are so realistic.

This one makes you wonder if this motorcycle is actually the way this man might have died.

The 100+ year old funeral says that these types of requests have become increasingly more popular and the ideas and imagination of the families is becoming wider and wider everyday. I personally find it kind of creepy, I don’t really know exactly why but I guess it just the whole “rest in peace” thing for me.

Let me know below in the comments if you would consider doing such a thing if money was no object. Would you want to have your loved ones set in these types of scenes shorty after a death? I can see the case why you might want to but, I don’t think I could do it.

one word - Crazy!

Why?

Did you see the Brad Metzer episode on a person some people think may have been John Wilkes Booth drank embalming solution and was mummified. A carnival took him on tour selling tickets to see him. Not a joke, crazy!

It looks different i have never seen . This is very surprising . It is very shocking news .
Thanks for sharing @broncnutz

Yeah that's gonna be a nope - nopitty - nope.... Too creepy for me.

Hear ya on the creepiness for sure brother

Dude - This is Fantastic brother!! I've never heard of anything like it before and really surprised I haven't either with YouTube and Media these days - Loving the guy in the Green Superhero outfit and the first pic of the dude laying back chillin probably all banged up

Not too sure if I died tomorrow I'd wanna be embalmed into a position my family or friends decide on either lol - they'll prob mess with me and put me in who knows what life moment of mine

Great post dude - I can't wait to Google it myself now and see what else I can find about it - its great!

Re Blogged For Sure!!

Its look different from that i have ever seen. Amazing shocking and creative. What an idea to do something with died peoples. Its not easy to beleive. Beacause i have not heared about this before.

Man that is awesome... is it??
I don't know... lol
Mixed feelings,, haha
Yea I dig it.
Kinda humorous in a way.

I think we all would like to see our dead selves doing what we love.
You have certainly got me thinking man. lol
Cheers.

Very surprising. I can not beleive that. Dead people.......
That a great idea to do something different. I have no words to show my expressions. I am little shocked..

A very shocking news and reality. Even the died people are in business purpose. Its amazing. It can be little chance some pure relegious community will disagree with that. But in business perpose this is great

I would rather leave whatever it would cost to my family and tell them to throw me in a river. Haha. No use for me to stick around with cotton inside of me. Lol. Good post.

Agreed! Lol well said

Wow very greatful news . I like it your beautiful post my best friend. thank you so much.

It is a very nice post. I have read the post carefully and I hope you are very careful on your post.You stay with us by nice posting.

Haha, brilliant kibriakhan.
Comment of the week!

I think you'll find that asadpannu has pipped him to the post below with "nice pic of boxer".

Haha, goooo assmandu :D
It's gonna be a tight race for the winner eft :D

How do they get them in those positions though? Lollll

Extensive stretching of there stiff muscles

excellent broncnutz

No. It’s so wrong. Kinda disrespectful to some extent. Unless this was what the deceased wanted.

Nice post, it's good to see that the word of God is in circulation in steemit. Keep doing it

Wow this is so surprising
..but does it really worth the stress..theynare deas and gone forever..they should be put to rest properly instead of all this....i think cremation is the best method of preserving the dead...it is less expensive and at least you can carry the ashes of your loved ones for memory sake

I am surprised to see this, I wonder how smart people are to come up with business ideas even when the person has died.

Nice pic of boxer

This is one for Ripley's Believe it or not!

Great post @broncnutz

..I believe it!

yeah that is going to be a nope from me. I find it in poor taste and I kind of consider a dead body to be someone akin to an empty container. A container that deserves respect and due consideration but no matter what happens it is now empty for good.
I would much prefer to have anything of worth organ wise harversted and used for transplants etc. and then the rest of me either cremated or buried. I prefer the though of cremation. I also don't like the idea of wasting money on something like my own funeral. Cheapest avenue possible. Maybe I'm wierd like that but it is just the way I am.

Isn't it awkward trying to keep dead people alive? The life which We get from God has a certain period and one day we have to return back to him.
I think it is really foolish keeping them out of ground.

What the fuck. Hahaha. If my loved one had specifically asked for their funeral to be this weird when they die then i would happily do it for them otherwise nah, i wouldn't do it lol.

Amazing, i can't believe they are dead people. Outstanding knowledge you deliver to us

yes ..this place is vary historical beacuse mortal m,an have to not death on this place...

I have heard of this. In fact I first saw it on the Karl Pilkington show where he traveled around.

I'd say no for me but my family is sort of old school and we still have some of our 'victorian' traditions that never stopped. One is the practice of photos of our recently passed. My family still does this. I rarely share it with others as they find it odd or gross, but it was pretty common in the 19th century. So, yes, not as extreme as this.

I bet the motorcycle man did perish that way, sad. I have a doctor friend who calls motorcycles, 'donorcycles' I guess that's a pretty common term in the medical field.

Wow!!!! If you're going out, you might as well go with a bang. lol

What damnnn this world is really miserable sometime

Weird and creepy in a way... I dunno if I could do such a thing tho... Doesn't seem right to me.

Cheers OG @broncnutz

Well these are like the last wishes of people who died.
How cruel can this world be :/

Damn, it is creepy, kinda looks like photos of the dead during victorian times

Dude, that's nuts.
I have a friend that posted pictures from her dad's wake. I though just posting picturing of the deceased at the funeral was odd.

This is serious? OMG I can't believe people are this crazy to do that.

Wow this is so surprising

This will give good memories to family members who lost their dear ones. @broncnutz
