I'd imagine you'd be embalmed. i've seen documentaries where people have been buried in their cars in america and germany..........another odd thing here is the height of your headstone is limited to a standard 90 cm

True, but death shouldn't be expensive. It shouldn't cost much to chuck a body in the ground and bury it, or burn a body, but somehow it does.

Weird. I've seen headstones higher than trees in cemeteries here in the states.

I wonder why they'd even bother to embalm you. The weight of the dirt is just going to destroy the car and rip your body to shreds anyway.

those in the business have the best sort of job security imaginable.

there will always be death, and unless you screw up really bad, or screw a corpse, you could be a mortician forever.

Mmm... necrophilia.

Same here the older cemetaries like the one along from me have huge ornate ones whereas the newer ones have small headstones and in a lot of cases just a bronze plaque on the ground

Have you seen the short film "Aftermath"? It's the only film that's ever literally made me scream just out of sheer disgust.

They're beautiful. I love cemeteries. I love old headstones, just the artistry that went into them is amazing.

I sort of want a hearse. Just because it would be sort of fun to drive it around town on daily errands or whatever.
