    Viking Burial ftw.

    Load me up onto a big wooden ship, loaded with flammable things,
    Set it sailing adrift off the coast at sunset...
    And then have a friend / family member shoot flaming arrows at it until the whole bloody thing goes up.

    No pointless religious crap,
    No pointless mourning,
    No stupid headstone for family members to trip over once a year..

    Just a ship.. And Fire.. And Awesome.



    I used to want to be cryogenically frozen but t'would cost too much. The Viking Burial sounds like it would be a great day out for the family.

    When I make my will (>50 years time hopefully!) my wish will be for to be cremated and my ashes be scattered at somewhere I have yet to determine.

    I like the idea of a viking funeral, but donating to science is probably the one for me.

    I'd like to donate it to Mythbusters. They can shoot me, crash into me, drop me off high buildings, freeze me, drown me, feed me to piranhas, etc. It'd save that poor dummy for a while.

    @Ivy: Make a living will. Declare it to your folks. Make them accept that this is what you want done with YOUR body.


    Or kill them first. /shrugs.

    UCC's medical school can have mine if I'm too old to donate organs.

    If I'm young - they can go to someone who needs them more than I do.

    I'm not sure which is more disturbing - munging or the fact that it happens often enough that it has its own definition in a dictionary. :eek:

    I want to be injected with a liquid but fast setting hard plastic resin, then when nice and resilient, made into a nice coffee table.

    At moment I'm going for cremation. Ideally I would like to be buried in a natural buried ground under a Yew tree.

    I did think about being cremated, but then there's the pollution. I'm leaning more toward one of those orchard cemetaries these days. In reality I don't care; I'll be dead, I won't know if they've buried me in a solid gold coffin or thrown im in a ditch. Just as long as it's done as cheaply as possible.

    Medical science.
    Student doctors need to know how I lived to this age.
    They can do whatever they want when they are finished with the remains. It's not like I'll need them.

    If I can arrange it by then, launched to the dark voids of space.
    If not, back to the standard burying. My body might as well go to some good ecologically use to the earth.
    ...There again, my body might poison the ruddy soil! :D

    Oh, I forgot; they're to give my organs to any poor sod who needs them. They'll be no use to me.

    All the good ones are gone.

    I could do this, I suppose, and leave it with my dearly beloved.

    Seriously; one of those green burials in a garden somewhere.

    When I'm gone I'm gone so ideally donate any organs that can be used again to those on transpant lists. Anything left over, can go to research.

    With the diet, the drinking & the smoking, not sure the heart, kidneys & lungs will be up to much good, but if anyone wants them they're welcome to them. They'll be no use to me at that stage.

    Really think donation should be make compulsory or if should be standard procedure unless you sign an opt out register or something similar.

    Just do not put me in a box & leave me to rot.

    I agree. If people are so bothered about not being 'complete' when they die they should have to go through the bother of registering their selfishness. And they should have to carry a card with "Selfish Git" written on it so everyone will know how selfish they are.

    Cut into 1 kilo portions and given to close friends and family with instructions to consume as they see fit.
