This is definitely one for the books!!!!!!

Funeral Home Poses Shooting Victim On His Motorcycle (VIDEO)

"""This isn't the first time Marin has made headlines for its unusual funerary services, the Associated Press notes. In 2008, the funeral home kept the embalmed body of a 24-year-old man standing throughout a wake that lasted three days.""""

That is SOOOOO creepy!

I bet those people would have chit themselves if the bike would have started up all the sudden.

That is SOOOOO creepy!

That's what I'm SAYING. Seeing is believing, no????
My mother always wanted to be laid out with her Marlboro's, ashtray and coffee. I just couldn't do it. I think I regret it, but that is NOTHING compared to this!!!

And how about the guy standing??? Like is he greeting his bereavors? (don't think that is a word!)

All I keep thinking is, talk about thinking outside the box.

As long as something like that would have made him happy, and the family also doesn't get upset by that kind of thing, who am I to judge.

I think the one with the guy who is standing would be interesting also. It's the usual thing to go up to the body, so we can say out last goodbye's. So he's standing there greeting his family. I would like to see a picture of how they did this though. Again as long as no one gets upset by it that knew the person who am I so say "ewww, sick". Not what I would want for one of my loved ones, but it's not my husband or child.

I totally agree with you. I wasn't thinking "ewwwww" or "sick", just different and eerie. The video was really something. The funeral home did an awesome job.

How did they get him straightened out afterwards? Assuming he was put in a casket.
