We are in Cave Hill Cemetery in Louisville Kentucky. This story is one that I immediately wanted to tell as soon as I read about it. Please comment and I hope you enjoy.
Sounds like a good man. He cares about the people and animals he was transporting! Service at its best! No wonder he was successful!
That actually makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the comment!
Love stories like this. I come from a long line of stubborn Irish people. What a great tale. Thanks for the shout out as well Chris, wasn’t necessary but loved it. I truly enjoy what you do! Stay safe, stay well! Regards from Austin
Thanks once again Maureen.
Being of Native American and Irish descent, I totally understand the stubborn part-my parents said my brother and I were always mule headed (that's another way of saying really really stubborn lol). Hadn't heard this story and got a good chuckle when you mentioned he was buried standing up so he could hurl epithets/curses/insults in the afterlife. My thinking is he has no worries, why carry a grudge to the afterlife? Surely he can transport everything safely without tossing insults to others in the afterlife.
Thanks so much for the comment.
You're welcome 😊
Gostei do comentário, muito bom.
I think the guy was nuts. That tomb he's entombed is has never been taken down, but I know its pretty creepy. I saw it many years ago and it beats anything weird in the other states.
Funny 😂🤣!!! Thanks for the laughs , hugs Susie 🥳🥳
Hello Susie!
Everybody knows that Marilyn Monroe is entombed at Westwood manorial park in L.A. but do you know that the person in the crypt above her is a gentlemen his name escapes me but his final request was to be buried face down so he could look at her for eternity could you do a story on him
Hugh Hefner!
@@shadowears 😂
Yes, I knew that. Lol, very lucky
Hugh Hefner is next to her. I read the gentleman above her has been moved by his wife.
Now that's a man who could carry a grudge. The part about him initially being buried standing up really had me laughing.
Great story Chris.
Thank you so much!
What a burdensome load to carry such an unforgiving heart around inside of you for your entire life. What a tragic man.
That is so much of a chuckle. Poor man. Hopefully he has put it all to rest for a peaceful afterlife.
Your blogs are always so interesting. Thank you so much for your time and research.
I appreciate that. Thank you.
I find it amazing so many people find it funny or cute that his daughter was so disrespectful to rebury her father and put someone she knew he hates beside him forever. Also I know Cave Hill cemetery pretty well because I don't live far
Fascinating stories you are bringing to this channel! Great job Chris 👍🏻 👏
I appreciate that.
Great video. Thank you for sharing. God bless ❤.
This guy needed some serious prayer 🙏. And some serious churching. Unfortunately it's too late now. Have a great day everyone
Hahahaa!!
Hey Whitdocs, if you're ever back in Vermont, there's a guy who was buried and had a window put on his grave so he could see out because he was terrified to be buried alive. The window peeps down to his body. You probably already knew about this but figured I would mention it.
Can you actually see 👀?
@@angelbasham6631 someone did a TH-cam video on the grave you speak of. I don't think you can see anything. I don't think theres anything left to begin with except some ☠ just saying. Have a great day everyone
you can see the outline of a head and neck but it's covered in moss I believe
So sad
I looked into that. But, it was too far north for my path. I’d love to visit though.
Dude, your narration and presentation is better than most. Subbed!
I really appreciate that. Thank you so much.
Wow! I loved this one. I have subscribed to you & I am really looking forward to seeing your next one.
I truly appreciate that. Welcome aboard. Thanks so much for the kind comment.
I love it! It sounds so outlandish that it has to be true. Thanks, that was another good story!
Thank you so much for the comment!
Love this story. Thank you very much
Great story. Thanks for telling it.
What an interesting story. I never heard this one. Thank You for sharing👍❤
Thanks so much for watching.
Great video! Never heard about this man. This is cool!
Thanks for watching.
Unique, very cool Thanks ! Bob
LOL, the irony is so perfect. :-) I was just at Cave Hill, but didn't know about that story. I've been off the grid on a five-week road trip and haven't had time to watch any videos since I left. Looks like you were on a road trip too. Glad you came through your surgery and are back. Hope that is all behind you now, Chris!
Lol. That’s great! I was on a road trip through New England. And the last day is when I got sick. Surgery over and I’m doing good. I’m looking forward to your visits. I thought Vermont was beautiful.
I’m glad that you are on mends recovering from your surgery
Now he has his very own steamship captain to yell at and he can't leave 😂🤣😅so McCarrie got the last laugh 😂
Fantastic story! Great video!
I really enjoy your content never a dull story and you are the best. And this is a very interesting story
I really appreciate that.
Hi ! This was a different and very interesting story ! I love stories like this ! LoL . Buried standing up ! You do definitely research great ones. Thanks again for all your famous vlogs!! Take care ! Deborah Canada
Thank you so much.
What a crazy but great story! I too love to hear this kind of stuff!
Hello Wally!
Wow what a wonderful story 😎 Love it 😍
Thanks Jackie!
I truly enjoyed your videos
Very interesting story and thanks for sharing.
Very interesting cant wait to see what's next thankyou have a great day
Thanks so much!
Brilliant video ☺️
Cave Hill Cemetery is a beautiful place
This is both a strange and funny video. I would hate to know that I carried that kind of hatred of others to my grave. Kind of poetic justice that his daughter had him buried with a steamboat captain. Thanks for sharing this Chris. Have a great weekend!
Thanks so much!
Chris, I love your youtube channel
I understand that his original tomb complete with porthole stood in a remote area overlooking the Ohio River for many more years but was removed in more recent years due to vandalism.
I'd love to see pictures from research like other channels do. That would be cool
Oh my! Bet there have been some lively discussions going on in the after life between these three 😂. Love stories like this.
In Virginia, there's a Slave owners corpse buried standing up overlooking his fields. He told the slaves he owned that he would be watching over them for the rest of the plantations days. They believed the owner and lived scared to death ever after. its near Roanoke
What a fantastic story!
Thanks so much!
I'll say it again!! You cover the best topics. So glad I found this channel. Interesting!! Oh the irony! 😁
I rally appreciate that. Thank you.
@@Whittdocs , you're welcome!! 😊 Happy Saturday!!
This is great! I chuckled too..😄
Thanks so much for the comment!
i was just there last week. love Cave hill
It’s a wonderful place.
Good video !
My Great grandmother came from Ireland to New York between 1881 and 1887 and my Grandfather came to New York from Poland in 1895 . Its in the DNA .
I feel the same way about semi trucks with the loud ass pipes.
Why Daryel,why?..
@@johngrepo9976 Redrock quarry a block from my house,I work nights.
@@daryelthomas9414 i understand. I live a mile from the railroad tracks and the noise is unbelievable
That's crazy lol
Great vlog
Thank you
This as always was very interesting Ned enjoyed it also
I’m glad Ned liked it.
Whiskey Pete, of Whiskey Pete's casino on the NV / CA border, asked to be buried standing up, holding a gas pump hose, with a bottle of whiskey at his feet, facing the road. When they built the freeway they dug up his coffin. When the crew heard that story, they loaded the coffin into a backhoe, drove it high up into the mountain range behind the casino, and reburied him, standing up, holding a gas pump hose, with the original bottle of whiskey at his feet, facing the casino. They added a fresh bottle of whiskey, minus the toast they all drank to him.
Was he standing up, thanks for the vlog
Short, informative and very interesting story. Good looking mausoleum too. :)
SOUNDS LIKE OH RARE BEN JJOHNSON
That poor man, all that anger and bitterness towards boat captains and then his daughter marry's one! He fits right in with the characters of Cave Hill.
Nice video, subscribed.
Welcome aboard! Glad you are here.
@@Whittdocs Thank you, sir!
Looks like a beautiful cemetery
Never knew about this do know about the one with a phone and the glass good video
Thanks so much.
BURY ME STANDING....A COMMAND OF THE ROMANY OR ROM GYPSIES.SO THEY CAN MEET THE LORD FACE TO FACE.SPECIAL RACKS WERE MADE AND THE DECEASED WERE STRAPPED TO IT AND KEPT UPRIGHT AND LOWERED INTO THE GROUND.it seems a sþrange way to do it,but there is a book of that name about a Romany mans life.proud and very religious,that is their custom.
Fabulous
Oh wow that is wild taking anger to the grave
Neat story
I’m Irish , nobody holds a grudge like I do !!!!been told I am the most stubborn person who ever lived
Good one. How ironic right.
People that angry end up in Hell, not "resting in peace" so they can hurl curses after death. If this story is true, then he failed the tests of life, and was also self centered with an overbearing sense of entitlement. I feel sorry for him. Hell is not a good place for anyone to end up.
Well I guess they say when you're mad you're mad so you better get glad that you're mad thanks for the video very interesting and I hope you're feeling okay stay safe and stay healthy be with peace
🛥If that wasn't God, I'll "EAT MY HAT"!!!! The man was sooooooo MISERABLE, soooooo ANGRY, that God had him buried next to a Riverboat Captain!!!! YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP!!!! Thanks Whittdocs, if I knew you were in town, I would have bought you lunch!!!!
I really appreciate that. This was a last minute trip. Lol we had no idea we were going until that morning.
Thanks for the funny
That’s how we should have buried my father in-law: he spent his entire life being angry.
I like his style.
That’s pretty cool. He hated captains that much. Have you thought about covering the tent graves of northern Tennessee? They are fascinating. I just mean down the road. I’m sure you have more videos planned.
I actually did a video of tent graves. Somewhere around Sparta, I believe. You should check it out. Those were fascinating.
Thànks! I will.
I heard that coffins were place in a six foot hole standing straight up to save space
What is the last thing an Irishman with Alzheimer's forgets?
His enemies.
I love this story wonder if he's turning in his grave knowing what his son in law did for a living and he rests for eternity with him
I couldn’t help but smile at the irony.
A perpetual standing ovation, it's a grave thought!
Wonderful comment!
@@Whittdocs Just for the hell of it, being buried standing up gets you closer to heaven!
Funniest cemetery story I have heard.
So he was buried standing up. It didn't take too long till the body start to undo and the bones would be at the bottom of the coffin. Death truly is the greatequalizer!
Whether its folk tale or not great story and ironic outcome.
You're not very much "Resting" if you're standing UP for eternity!! Whaddaya say? :D
I would hate to carry that hate around everyday...I can only imagine he must have died from a heart attack...great story!
A "fairy" is a mythical winged creature Not a ship.
Beautiful mausoleum!
I agree. A lot do beauty in that cemetery.
What a beautiful mausoleum! Good for him!
Are you in Louisville?? I’d love to meet up with you & show you some good stories to film
I’m in Kentucky. But not Louisville. I’m about 3 hours away.
Thanks buddy…
Thank you!
Heck I can’t say to much to good ole Frank, I can cuss like a sailor myself and in my younger days I definitely could see myself saying bury me standing up so I could yell at ppl who ticked me off lol. I love this guy and what a kick his daughter married another Capt, so hilarious. Welcome Maureen ! I for one can’t wait to hear some more stories, even if it never happened they are so neat to hear ! Thanks Chris and Mrs Whittdocs ! Great video !
How are you this fine morning, Linda?
hello Linda happy friday to you my dear.....this is such a great video here i love stories like this
@@Whittdocs I’m doing good thanks !
@@itsthe773guero5 hello to you one of my favorite intelligent friends. I wanna be like u when I grow up 😍
@@Whittdocs I am doing well. Enjoying watching your videos. I’m so glad your back but even more so that you’re well
I've been dead on my feet before....but.....
Hahaha. Yeah really!
@@Whittdocs 😃
ME TO,💜
My granny was buried standing up cause she wanted to see who came to see her
❤ about the strangest story I've ever heard.😅
It could be a little like the incident in Chicago; one mobster was being planted in Mount Carmel, next to the man he'd had murdered a week or two before his own demise. The sexton remarked to a nearby policeman that he wouldn't like to be there on Resurrection morning...... There's a legend from the Chilterns (England) about someone buried sitting at a table - and wasn't an American lady buried sitting at the steering wheel of her very expensive car?
I live about 2 hours from Louisville ky
Nice. It’s about 2 and a half for me.
@@Whittdocs 😁
One of the reasons was he never said anything about NOT being buried that way
Of all the Hell we go through on this planet we call life. It would be nice to think we might find peace in tge afterlife.
What a beautiful mausoleum...
I guarantee this man is no longer standing in his coffin ⚰️! Those knee bones gave way many moons ago!
Hummm wonder if jealousy was part of it. Makes one wonder. Quite a thing to be burried upright. His daughter marries a captain. Can't help but chuckle at that. 😆
He cared about the people and animals on his boat though, so he wasn't all bad.
Wow
❤️❤️
Cameraman didn't understand the assignment looking at Irving mausoleum. Clickbaity captn, ah well
I get it.
Reminds me a little of the joke, bury me upside down so the world can kiss my ass.
