- Lancaster, Pennsylvania is home to the first public crematorium in the United States. I visited recently and learned about the building’s history.

I like the phrase “Over half of all Americans were cremated last year.” It makes it sound like 160 million people were cremated and then nobody talked about it
Lol, I should've caught that in writing. Yes, you're right -- it was the half of Americans who died in 2021.
@@PatKellyTeaches I just figured since we were talking about dead people that it was obvious so I didn't think twice about it.
Damn, I knew the US was hit hard by COVID, but I didn't think it was _that_ bad! 😹
Burst out laughing at "You could say that it was the hottest club in town, and that people were dying to get in". Made my day brighter, thank you so much 👏👏👏
Thank you for pointing out that sticking grandma in the oven at home won't do the job
The more you know
@@PatKellyTeaches Hopefully, people don't try to cremate their deceased pet either. Some have to learn the hard way
But I thought that nothing said lovin' like a loved one in the oven
Your little list of things we don't talk about caught me by suprise and I acctually lol. Thanks 😄
Glad you picked up on that 😜
I’m still a-ok being sent to sea on a wooden boat with accelerants and a timed ignition.
I just finished marathoning all your videos here and I have to say I am really glad I found your channel, I got accepted into medschool and will start it in about a week, I had been feeling the standard impostor syndrome and had been worried if I even would be able to have the motivation to keep up with the huge amount of content and was second guessing how much I really like medicine, but your channel reminded me of how much I love this stuff, it's so interesting, from the history to the proceedings and the ethics, I was reminded of how their's nothing else I'd rather do, so thanks for that :)
This comment made my day, thanks Yuri. Best of luck in medical school -- you got this!
Hmm so 1 hour per body you say? That makes for some interesting math regarding a certain event 70 years ago.
We truly don't talk about Bruno.
Technically, there is specific point during an every cremation when meat is perfectly cooked.
I also love the video from Ask a mortician. maybe making a video together?
That would be the dream collab right there! I've admired Caitlin's work for years at this point
Great story as always. I'm sending it to a friend from Lancaster.
Awesome, thank you! Since this video came out, I've heard from a handful of Lancasterites
It's funny hearing you say Lancaster 😆
I am from the area so it's interesting!
The Bruno line got me. Thanks for the laugh 😂
Thank you for pronouncing Lancaster correctly!!!
Great video!
Thank you for the shout out to Caitlin Doughty. She's awesome ❤
While this video was supposed to be the first installment of a series of videos made on the east coast, I got COVID, so I'm isolating in Philadelphia. Better luck next time!
Thank you for pronouncing Lancaster correctly.
Wouldn't cremation increase the "miasma" with the fumes from burning crematoriums? Or was it a short term smoke vs long term decay thing?
Well done. Interesting story.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the comment
I wasn't aware that I wasn't supposed to talk about Bruno. Thanks for the tip.
Domis Omis, lets light this candle!
Your videos are incredible! I'm pissed that there are just few followers of your channel & when searching for it, I get some singer channel with the same name.
Haha! Thank you for the kind words. I have so many more videos to make, so stay tuned!
Wordplay in this one is a solid 11/10
Thanks! I wasn't sure if yall would be...burnt out....by it
Thanks for great content as always.
What if we can still feel pain after death?
10:26 yikes!
Cremation makes me feel claustrophobic to the x. It's so industrial. Open air burning is what people did back when, not some iron forge
Great article! I hope I’m the only person who’s been thinking that in the far future people will be mining cemeteries for valuables. I know my mother still has her diamond ring.
Near future? People have been doing that ever since burial was invented
Again. Caitlin Doughty for another story on this topic. Hopefully, you’ll get crossover viewers.
Cremation killed the burial star🎶
What can we learn from this story? Easy: if you have a good idea, don't tell Rome, I think they finally admitted that Galileo MAY have been right in 1996, five hundred years later!!!! (that's why we haven't told them about medically assisted suicide yet, we won't, he he) That was fascinating, thanks.
I will be cremated! My mother was just cremated which was a big big surprise to me and my family!

I've just come across your channel and have been watching (and greatly enjoying!) a bunch of your videos over the last couple of days.
Just in case you ever read this, (and in case it's actually useful): I feel like this isn't the first time I've heard you comment about not being confident with your Latin pronunciations. I don't know about ecclesiastical Latin, but the modern reconstruction of spoken classical Latin is very consistent and relatively easy to pick up, and there are a number of TH-camrs who speak in and about it. The first ones I can think of are ScorpioMartianus and polýMATHY.
300 likes is too little for this, I love your content! Making a comment so that TH-cam recognizes that it needs to spread this channel!
You are way underrated. What is the algorithm doing?
Alot of hungry people in the United States we should start eating them
A hot mess in a creamatorium is a whole different topic.
Anyone else an ask a mortician fan?
Let's go Deathlings!
@@PatKellyTeaches heck yeah! I knew I liked you!
Sounds like a Crematory Attorney would have been appropriate.
Wow... you travled all that way to see Lancaster. You poor soul. At least you didnt get suckered into saying the town name like the loacals.
I was on the way to Philly from Pittsburgh! Lancaster was a cute town though
Good job pronouncing Lancaster correctly. I went to college in Lancaster and was corrected immediately after pronouncing “Lancaster” around the locals.
A pretender, don't believe these fake PKs, I'm the only real one.
