what do you want done with your body when you die?

[hobopoe]

cremate me and spread me along a long journey while hopping. Maybe at each major stop, have a small party with drink. Nordic like.

Just take what you can from me then throw me in a hole. No casket and no chemicals. Maybe plant a tree over me, that would be cool. As for the funeral- nothing religious, just a shit ton of good food and drink.

Never gonna die.

This but with psilocybin, so instead of a funeral it can just be a bunch of folks trippin' out and having a grand ol' time ahah

I want to be cremated and have my ashes spread in the cascade mountains

Viking funeral.. If not available, just feed me to hungry wolves.. That would work too..

I'd like to be cremated and have my ashes thrown off the Megler bridge in Astoria, Oregon

I want to be stuffed taxadermy style and dressed in a1920s style baseball uniform and then sent to someone who knows me but not to well (eg. 2nd cousin) with a note explain that my dying wish was for them to keep me and display me in their home( so they feel obligated to).

I want my dismembered body launched out of a cannon over a major populous area, like NYC or Seattle or something along t hose lines. I want it to rain my fingers, toes, and other body parts upon strange unsuspecting peoples heads lol

Here's the plan:
Im dead, my best friend Gabe is still alive because I'm definitely going to die first.
So my funeral is going on, near the end when they go to open the casket everyone discovers that my body is not there.
At that point, Gabe is going to be hiding in the ceiling with my body attatched to the ceiling fan. After everyone starts freaking out for a bit hes going to jetison my body from the rafters with the celing fan on high. At that moment the Space Jam theme song is going to start playing as my corpse is flying around the room attatched to the fan.

After that I don't really care what will be done with my body.

Either cremated and the ashes used as fertilizer for an ash/oak/yew tree, or... Buried under the plot of said tree.

Love the idea of a tree using my atoms as it grows.

Yea tree burial seems so right. Like it should be... give back to that which sustains you.

In the Himalayas they have something called sky burial... where the dead are taken to the top of a mountain to return to the elements. To weather away and be consumed by scavenging animals... birds of prey especially in this case. (I find that awesome... your consumed by a creature of flight)... Return to the sky...

That is pretty cool, i've read about that also. Popular in Tibet, apparently. It's funny, to so many people in the West, chopping up a loved one and letting the birds feast on them is barbaric. Yet we drain people of their fluids, paint them, dress them up, shove them in a hugely overpriced box, and delicately place them in the ground to just rot and be eaten by worms. Even death has become this overly fake and disconnected ritual of denial.

 

[Art101]

Toss my body off a train up in the Sierras and just let me rot.

 

[sucuri]

Cremated, then have the ashes mixed with some bloody chum and fed to either crocodiles or sharks.

 

[Hylyx]

Any and all of my organs used for science, and the rest cremated and shot into space.

 

[Mikael Runefoot]

I want my body to be stripped naked and thrown deep into the woods of Ireland. I expect that over time animals would eat me, run around with bits and pieces of me and my remains would be scattered and returned back to earth. Im pretty sure this is illegal though.

 

[Jaguwar]

I'm ok with organ donation, after which take what's left, wrap it in some simple cloth (cotton H how ill do,) throw me in the hole
