Beïng buried in your nightdress is an old-fashioned christian custom. It's refering to eternal sleep.
That’s what I will be wearing.
What is with the ï
@@theendofemeralds English is'nt my first language.
@wendy-1250 I had figured, my apologies for coming off with a rude tone. I am going to guess that it is similar to how it is hard to actually put down accent for French with an English keyboard, because the accents simply aren't there, and I do apologize if that came across as presumptuous or anything like that.
Interesting, thanks for the info ☺️
The old man with the LARP hobby with his wife is so touching. I love it ❤
I cried, lol.
My father’s favorite hobby was gardening, and he was a master at it. There was a small drawer in his casket. In that drawer, we placed a cap from his business he owned (a paint store), a golf ball (he loved playing golf (even though he’d once thought it was odd how “grown men were in a field, chasing a ball around 😂), and a little sign one of his customers had given him, that read, “Gardeners Know All the Dirt”. It’s been 22 years and I still miss him so much.
My BF dreamed that he was at his own funeral but they had tried to bury him without his boots--we're from Texas--and he was so mad he crawled out of the casket and went to find them. The way he dreamed it, it took everyone entirely too long to notice that he was out and around, mingling with the guests. From what I hear here, I'll have to tell him to make sure they make an exception to the no-shoes rule. He's just about stubborn enough to haunt us if we don't include the boots.
As a native Texan (forced to live elsewhere), I love your husband's dedication to his boots! 💙💙
2:20 My grandma had personally asked my cousin and the wife of another cousin to be the ones cleaning her and put in the outfit she had chosen herself as they both worked as caretakers. They both said it was hard but good, knowing it was someone grandma liked and not some random nurse/funeral emploee
It's really never too early to think about your own funeral arrangements. The youtube channel, ASK A MORTICIAN, is awesome, deals with different aspects of death and dying.
I love ask a mortician!!!! It’s a fantastic channel!
Me too
I love Caitlyn!
My dad always put things in different plastic bags .
When he was in the funeral home I asked them to put a biodegradable plastic bag made from starch in his pocket.
When he was alive, we used to joke that we would bury him in a plastic bag.
A friends son drowned a few years ago. He, and their entire family, love the renfair and he was buried with his sword and, I assume, his favorite flannel and jeans, that man LOVED his jeans would sleep in his jeans. Everybody at the funeral was dressed in their best renfair garb, including me. He was gay and the local flower shop made rainbow roses, white roses dyed rainbow with colored water, and everyone was invited to place them in his casket, so was put to rest with the most beautiful whimsical bouquet of colorful roses. It was a wonderful, very sorrowful, service and we sat there for hours as people upon people went up to the podium and went on and on about how wonderful he was in life. It was a lovely ceremony. Truly honored his life.
We buried my husband with a can of Coca Cola in his hand and a Coke pillow under his head. He was a huge fan of Coca Cola. We probably should have added a box of Kraft Mac N Cheese. Too late now. Still miss you, Bob!
I make costumes for theater. I told my husband and daughters that I want to be buried in an elizabethan dress, with period underclothes, I made for myself. It's just like one that queen Elizabeth I wore in the early 1600's.
My mom and dad passed a few months ago. My mom on 2/26 and my dad in 3/1. Very fitting. They were always together. We had limited funds so they were both cremated and put together in an urn and obviously buried together. Not strange, just fitting for them. They would have celebrated their 65th anniversary this past May. I don't think I've ever seen 2 people more in love all the way to the end.
4:02 now I want a book with a world where everyone wears fine suits and jewelry, and the protagonist spends the entire book naked. nobody knows why all the clothes he tries to wear disappear, and why there's an overwhelming amount of suits and fake pearl necklaces. the whole place is very eerie, but no one knows how they got there, or what their purpose there is. no one dies on that place, though they seem to have an instinctual understanding of what death is. some plot happens and in the end the obvious twist is everyone is dead, and those were the clothes they were buried with/died in. the protagonist died in the woods or something, and was never buried, so he was naked all the time. idk, might be a decent world building idea if there is some good plot.
My dad passed away last year and was cremated. At his funeral, being his eldest child, I read a text composed by all the close family in front of the church. It went well, I was able to not chocke on my tears... Until the last part. I began to sob while laughing and reading the last part.
"Our dad always told us "When I die, put me in a trash bag, throw me in the bin and wheel it to the curb". We're sorry dad, but we couldn't do that"
I cried like crazy for the rest of the ceremony, but it felt great in the end.
Our only real regret is that the funeral home refused to cremate him with a bunny plushie I made him
Hairdresser cried the whole time but that was probably such a huge honour for her and knew she would haunt her if anyone else did her hair. It can be great closure too giving them one last eternal hairstyle
My aunt's hairdresser asked to do her hair one last time. She did a wonderful job. She told me it was a good way to say goodbye to one of her favorites.
My hair dresser liked to do her ladies one last time
My Mother had the same hairdresser for 40 years! I asked her to to do Mom's hair one last time. She had no problem with that and had worked on other deceased clients!
Aw goddammit, why did I have to listen to this in public? I'm tearing up with the sweeter stories.
Meanwhile, my mom had been in a fashion show at her nursing home a few weeks before she passed away and she loved the outfit… so that’s what she wore when she was cremated.
When we buried my uncle we placed marbles in the ground with him. They were a family heirloom that he had honored our entire life. Each of us nieces and nephews were each given a small bag of the marbles to remember him with.
I JUST finished the pizza delivery video- I'm so happy to have another one right after. Thanks Undersparked!
There’s also vary sparked no more uploads but it’s there and really sparked still uploads I really Shuold check em both out
I wanna be burried with my favorite wallhanger sword.
Not sure if it'll be possible though.
My Mimi was and had always been a massive fan of the astros. Even had an Astros themed surprise 90th birthday. Passed away 3 years later in 2020 and was buried in her favorite jersey and with her favorite astros bear
When my Dad passed away, he got to wear what he would've loved. My mom, brother and I decided to have him wear a nice pair of dress-pants along with a t-shirt I had gotten him for Christmas. My Dad loved wolves so the t-shirt had some beautiful artwork of a wolf on it. I just know he would be so happy to know that he finally got to wear the shirt
My uncle was buried in a Hawaiian shirt and khaki shorts because he wore that a lot, even on cool/cold days. Though he was a practicing Catholic, being buried in a suit and tie just did not fit his personality.
My grandma’s hairdresser went to the funeral home and did her hair for her funeral.
I was getting my hair cut one day in my teens when one of the stylists packed up her gear, said she'd be back after the wake. When she'd gone I asked my stylist about it and that's when I found out about hairdressers who give their clients that last haircut ❤
Man, I’ve just started and I’m already in tears at all these touching, funny, awesome stories. Ugh.
45:01 Just Incase anyone needs to hear this, you can tell them “no actually I’ll be switching funeral homes” and call up another one to take the body from them, it’s not a once and done type thing if they want to be assholes you don’t have to let them have the privilege of caring for your deceased loved ones. Also I’m some states in the U.S you can get legally cleared to do all of the body and burial prep at home like in the old days, bathe and dress the body and hold a viewing all on your own and just have the funeral home transport the body to the cemetery for burial. But I’m no expert on how to properly go through the motions to do this. Just wanted to let anyone who might need to hear it know that you NEVER have to just accept that kind of disrespect when dealing with the loss of a loved one and their final wishes.
We buried my dad in one of his work suits and they shaved his face but accidentally nicked him over the lip. I found it so fitting and it brought me and his other daughters some comfort when I pointed it out because he would ALWAYS, without fail, accidentally cut his face at least in one place whenever he shaved. I always remember him wearing a small bandaid or piece of cotton on his face the first day of his shave. We'll hold his 40 day memorial service this Sunday🖤
These stories warm my cold dead heart
The first one reminds me of when my dad passed. He wasn't buried but cremated. He had on a t-shirt and jeans, very him but during the viewing my mom put in a corn cob because he'd been working on a huge garden for a few years and the corn that year right before he passed was about 15 ft tall, soooo much taller than any other corn I'd seen at that time of the year, I'm not sure what he did but he was so proud (he did grow up with farmers in his family so he knew things but still it was impressive). My mom also put in a pair of her panties in his pocket and a few other small things. The day after the viewing is when he was cremated she said, omg I didn't think of this but when they were cremated him the corn probably started popping, lol. I'm sure he would have laughed at that too.
My uncle passed unexpectedly from heart problems, and he was only in his 40s. At any past family funerals, he always complained about "this damn monkey suit" and joked that he would haunt us if we buried him in one. He was also a biker and loved Harley. So when the time unfortunately came, several decades earlier than expected, we buried him in his favorite biker gear, and the whole family wore Harley shirts to the funeral, and we paid extra for a hearse pulled by some Harley bikes. His best friend and his wife rode his bike to the cemetery, and in total there were probably 30+ bikes at the funeral. It definitely helped bring comfort to our family that this would definitely be his preferred vibe rather than a somber black-tie event.
kind of obsessed with the dad in story 10 ngl
this video is very heart warming to hear. 3 out of my grandparents have passed with my grandma passing last month. they didn’t have anything weird on in the casket but had stuff that was so them. my paternal grandmother had alzheimer’s and for as long as they could they would paint her nails and perm her hair until she got to the point where she couldn’t do that anymore. when she was in her casket she finally had her nails and hair done for the first time in a while. she was able to go out as herself after loosing herself to the disease. my paternal grandfather was a farmer and even when he was in the nursing home he would only wear flannel and jeans so they buried him in that outfit. the bouquet on his casket had pheasant feathers and what looked like grains in it. my maternal grandmother who just passed away loved the color orange. to the point that in my house (that was originally hers that she had built with my grandfather) there is this ugly ass wall in our living room that is textured and a very bright orange color. she was buried in this bright orange shirt with a unique pattern as that was what many of her shirts were like. she also had her sweater on that she brought everywhere because she was always cold. on the sweater was this cute be merry pin that she won at bingo around christmas time. she never took it off her sweater so it was buried with her. my relatives and i all wore homemade orange flower pins in honor of her. i have a pheasant feather from my paternal fathers funeral and the flower from my maternal grandmother’s funeral, they sit together on display in my bedroom. i love and miss all of them but i’m so happy they were able to be their truest self until their burial
Not so much the outfit, but my elderly father has an unusual end of life request. I'll have to come back when it's okay to cry.
This video keeps making me go back and forth between laughing and crying and I hate it.
This is sweeter than i expected 😊
My dad was buried in his maroon sweater and some joggers. He looked comfy. 💖
Not going to lie, I cried during the part with the LARPers. Beautiful.
Whatever I'm buried in, my dogs' ashes will be going with me in the form of a tattoo. Ashes are safe to mix into tattoo ink and tattooists are familiar with memorial tattoos.
My brother and i helped load my dad into the crematory. We put a Marlboro red pack in his pocket with a very high quality joint in it. I know the owners smelled it
I wasn't expecting to cry sporadically for an hour, but here I am...
When my dad died in 2001, my mom buried him in an Atlanta Braves tee-shirt and jeans. I am glad she did that because dad hated suits and ties. I only saw him in formal clothes when he married my mother. They are both gone, miss them dearly.
Retired hair stylist here! I had to do hair and make up for several of my clients after they passed away. I did their hair for years so it was only fitting that I did it for them for the final time. Also I knew exactly how they wore their hair so the family didn’t have to worry about them looking different than normal.
As someone studying archaeology I want to comment on story 4. While there may be some story conceived by archaeologists on what each item means I can guarantee that they would know he was loved and respected. Grave goods are indicative of someone with immense importance to a culture. If someone has out something in your grave it means that there was someone there to think about what you would have wanted in your grave and to care about where you are going in the afterlife. The children’s toy would certainly break my heart. It would be obvious that he was young enough to have had a young child, and it would likely be assumed that the child gave him the toy to take with him. Depending on whether they had any knowledge of poker chips and blackberries there could be different assumptions there. But children’s toys are pretty obviously children’s toys for the most part.
My grandmother was buried with a bottle of wine and letters from several people including me. My bf (now husband) had recently told me "you know I want to spend the rest of my life with you" (we weren't planning on getting married) and I wrote that in my note to her. She was 93 when she passed.
My papa died recently, late April actually.
He was buried in one of his red wings sweatshirts and a cross necklace…
He was honestly the relative I was closest with and I still remember just how accommodating my dad was with me that day.
I miss my papa every day… his funeral was the day before my birthday as well.
my mother died from pancreatic cancer in march. she absolutely loved running, but when she injured her knee she couldn't run anymore. whenever she'd see someone running or jogging she'd watch longingly. we buried her in her running clothes with her favourite jumper so that she could run forever.
The LARP one made me cry
I've heard that some funeral directors might offer the option for the relatives to do the deceased's makeup, and it can possibly be helpful in the process of grieving. It's probably not that uncommon for the family of the deceased to do their makeup or hair for the funeral.
if I arrive in the afterlife without basecap and beer, I'll go right back and haunt earth as a mad ghost forever
I had my father cremated in Jeans, T-shirt, boots, funny underwear, and a hoodie. It was in January and part of me was worried he would be cold. I have Autism and was having trouble dealing with the shock of his death, Still am 6 months later. I miss him so much.
Yay I love watching/ listening to y’all’s videos on all 3 channels even tho 1 isn’t active still watch it
What are the other channels?
@@KitKat10281 vary sparked and realy sparked vary sparked isn’t active any more but realy sparked is active very day or almost
We buried my grandfather with a pair of trauma shears, he was a first responder, we also placed shiny shield pennies on the coffin. Miss you lots Bobby.
My grandfather was buried in a flannel, blue jeans, a flat cap, sunglasse, his fire chief badge and a stereotypical german Bavarian hat. I have all his other fire department gear (past cheif badge, dress blues, original charter era patch, scrapbooks of the beginning years of the station etc.) today and bring them with me when I'm able to stop by the station, and my truck which he gave me my senior year carries his name on its sides.
When my mom-in-law died, we knew she wanted the ashes of ALL her dogs buried with her. Since she was being buried in a mausoleum, the funeral home complied. Now they are all together.
I'd like to be buried with my favourite blanket, I've had it since I was 11, and I've even had it on holiday with me and managed to get it on to a psych ward for a week. I'm 24 and I'm already making some plans. Never too young to plan that kind of thing, as you never know when you're going to go, it could be toomorrow, or next week or next year for all you know. Hopefully it isn't, but it can be.
So leaving your loved ones with something to go on is a pretty helpful thing to do.
Buried my grandpa with his favourite video game tucked into his suit pocket. A very well loved copy of Dr Mario.
my dad was buried in his "weed shirt" it had palm trees on it but they looked like weed 😭😭😭 (he was completely sober but idk its funny)
My big brother still calls me sausage.
I'm 55
I've not heard this voice read before but it's distractingly attractive lol 🤭
Poet Benjamin Zephaniah said on QI that he wanted to be buried with his first typewriter, so he could still be composing while he was decomposing. When I heard that he had died, I wondered if his wish had been honored.
not really the same, but my family's dog had a fascination with my grandmother's homemade cake. Like, he would freak out every saturday because that was cake day and this normally perfectly obedient german shepherd would just be uncontrollable. So when we brought him to cremation, he got to take 2 slices.
When the funeral director asked my mom to provide clothes for my dad to be buried in, she decided to skip a suit or button-down shirt. She brought in a pair of khaki pants, a chamois shirt, a red and black checked hunting jacket, and his favorite hat. This was pretty much his default outfit, especially in the years after he retired. We all laughed and said that if he had been buried in a suit God wouldn’t recognize him.
My dad passed in 2019, he loved kilts so mum and I sorted his favourite black kilt, smart shirt and knee socks.
Former mortician/funeral director here. I once saw a young, hippie type guy who was buried in a t-shirt that said "Be sure to eat your vegetables. They make your poo green."
This dudes voice went from kinda high to deep af like what
They're 2 different people
@explodingbutters9595 thx for the explanation I was just confused because I only ever heard one person
i want to be buried in my medic tf2 t-shirt and favorite pair of shorts with my favorite biology books and my rock collection. also serve my favorite recipes at the funeral
and plant some endangered flowers on my grave and donate my money to the american chestnut foundation
It can't possibly be correct about spending eternity in what you wore last/were buried in. Imagine billions of people shuffling around mangled by an assassin's bullet or car accident.
With all the naked people, I wouldn't know where to look. Beetlejuice's office scene was onto something!
I'm so disappointed that guy called his camo pants for chemo 'battle pants' and not 'chemo camo'
My uncle worked for a burial service and there was one time that the family stayed until the casket was completely covered with dirt. They, my uncle and one other guy, had trouble getting the top over the casket and they had to jump on it to get it into place with the top of the line being concrete and heavy. It worked and the family eventually went home. Still. Weird. I knew someone who had red and green color blindness and he had to pay attention to traffic lights too see which was where to see the red and green traffic signals. My sister wore this skimpy little dress that barely went to her thighs and was strapless and a little black hat to my grandpa funeral
My grandmother was insistent the under her dress she wear her wedding peignoir set (even though it didn’t still fit) for when she saw my grandfather again.
They had Uncle Mike's elf outfit on a dressmaker's dummy at the wake. And his Knights of Columbus uniform was on him.
we buried my grandmother with bounty paper towels. she had dementia and couldn’t see well, but she always knew when it was bounty and would ONLY use bounty (bonus points for the fact my ma went to the nearest store for em and found the best deal on bounty towels)
53:50 I think Little Sausage will be fine (though I'd probably drop the "little" lol)-- there was a guy on Ink Master who went by Sausage
My Papa was upset that his brother was buried in Mormon garb. He felt he should be buried in uniform given how long he served.
Mormon’s put a little white napkin on the head of the deceased.
My Mom had a closed casket. I had her buried in jogging clothes. She stayed cold so that’s what she wore. It was pink and gray. Also I told them to make sure she has her teeth in. No one saw her without them.
Dad was buried in overalls and a t-shirt. Was what he wore everyday.
I think it’s best to put them In what they liked. 💜
I hope to be buried in a t-shirt and a pair of shorts. That’s what I wear everyday.
I can't imagine how painful it would be if my father died.. I hate that feeling >
I made it clear to my family that since I can't have children, I want to be buried with my two cats (both are decided and I have their ashes) because they were and still are my kids
16:00 made me cry
I had a friend who’s dad was buried with a bag of MJ in his pocket, not a weird outfit but definitely a funny story
Story 33: And here I am, 50-something with a 16 year old. 😭 💀
I like this channel
They sneaked my aunts ashes into her mother’s coffin when they buried her
The guy who had money on his body gave me an idea. So I’m disabled, socially anxious, and introverted. I don’t get out a lot and when I do I’m not good at talking to people. I’ve had the sad thought my funeral is going to be pathetic with very few mourners. I have money and no one to inherit (if my sister who is 13 years older than me dies before me), so what if I offer money to people who come to my funeral? Heh heh.
I've got my outfit for burial chosen. A black velvet top with lace sleeves and a bright pink skirt with a black mesh overlay. I wore it for a crazy occasion at the turn of the millennium. The boots I wore for that occasion though are not going with me. Oh those will be on top of the casket because I'm leaving all my boots to various family members. But boots must be present at the funeral as I am well known for them. My musical choices might raise a few eyebrows but I know my cousins will be choking back laughter. Why? Because I'm a big Oingo Boingo fan and one of my absolute favorite songs from them is "No One Lives Forever". I'm also kind of opting for "Who Wants to Live Forever?" by Queen as well. If not at the funeral, at least they can throw me a big party and play all my favorite songs. LOL!
And there must be a bottle of Jack Daniel's. I developed an allergy to certain alcohols and haven't been able to have a drink of it since my late 30s. And a can of Pepsi. :)
Oh, don't forget Alphaville's "Forever Young." Classic.
My Mamaw told my dad and my older siblings that she wanted her ashes put in an old Folgers can. That's exactly where they put them. Wish I could have really gotten to know her, I was about six or seven when she died. But it's stuff like that which really makes me wish I could have.
Oh i think i'm going to be buried in a vampire costume: fangs and all :))
Not a single person will get to see the fangs. The deceased will have their mouth sew shut😢
My client just died yesterday (I was with him), so I'mma come back to this later. Too soon.
My mother in law insisted her husband be buried with two pairs of socks on because he always wore two because his feet were so cold!
Don't know the WHOLE STORY, obviously. But the one with "you have 1 hour, or else!" Something tells me, OP slacked off til the last minute. They said "why? The funeral isn't til tomorrow" what?????!!!! All that stuff takes DAYS! And, yes, they need time to prepare the body. What was their plan. "Hey mom. Today is your funeral. Quick! Throw this on" 😮😮
Therapeutic!❤️
First I love your vids ❤❤😊
i wish we got to choose the outfit my mom was cremated in. She was forced to be cremated in the hospital gown she died in
Why didn't you get a choice?
I'm gonna be cremated,,butni want my last outfit to definitely be comfy pajamas,no doubt!! Finally at rest!! I've always been underdressed when I went out anyway!! 😂❤❤
Now i gotta know did someone at some point need tissues or whatever there called for story 2 and "rob" the dead if so i feel like it would be a little funny to see uh grandpa i think it was maybe always prepared even in death
the big boy underwear one is just so 😭
That one literally touched me in a way nothing had done in years
If not better, more comfortably (Heaven clothes).
My dad was buried with a pipe, pocket change, and a deck of Harley Davidson themed cards (the joke was he traded the Harley for the redhead, my mom)… and in a suit.
I also wore his helmet on the drive to the cemetery.
My dad rode in the 1950s/60s.
🎶just before the angels come to carry me, I want it down in writing how to bury me. Wearing tan shoes with pink shoe laces. A polka-dot vest and man oh man! Wearing tan shoes with pink shoe laces and a big Panama with a purple hat band🎶
#21: so sad ...
I want to be in my pj's.
what‘s the name of the game?
