Death: You Can't Avoid It (Ask A Mortician)

Tweet

How will you deal with death when the Grim Reaper comes knocking? Do you have your affairs in order? Purchased enough life insurance for your family to live comfortably? Made funeral arrangements or planned for cremation? So many things to ponder and chances are the more you delve into the subject the more questions you will have. As expected, YouTube is a great resource for such things. Of course "Ask A Mortician" ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCi5iiEyLwSLvlqnMi02u5gQ ) is a great place to start because Caitlin Doughty puts an extremely unique spin on all facets of death. Her videos are tastefully done and if you have curious questions about death - she will give you the skinny (and then some). She covers new and old forms of funeral preparation as well as historical 'news' such as the 334 bodies found at Tri-State Crematory that were never properly incinerated. Other videos go into detail about how mouths and eyes are closed, how gas is released from the body and one of the strangest topics - coffin birth. Oh no, I won't be giving away the goodies on that one.
