Great job!

There is not spanish influence on this tradition okay? this is more ancient. It started before Spain came to Mexico.

I love this video. It's always sad to say goodbye to someone we love through death b/c of missing them, but those I feel pity for are those who do not fully embrace that death really is just another phase of life. It is a circle. It may look as though it ends, but it doesn't. Never grieve as if there is no hope b/c you will see your loved one again, in their perfected state. That is cause for joy, so on this night, Celebrate!!

THATS A MEXICAN TRADITION "DAY OF THE DEAD"

[o0Sharpshooter0o]

is an old mexican tradition, spain has nothing to do

[XxMissNoNamexX]

Halloween is cool, but this seems more awesome. It actually has to do with the dead and it has great meaning. It looks SO fun.

[BabyGirlGoddess]

wow. that is really cool

as a black person living in Georgia ( deep South),

I have respect to foreign cultures (especially Hispanic/Latino cultures)

i would love to participate in one of these to honor my past ancestors.

[MrBiggs099]

[jbkm22]

Is so beautiful... I miss Mexico so much :(

[evil9MMPEARLGRIP]

hell yeah coronas!

It's interesting what you are saying ApparitionZ. Can you explain why is there Druidic influence in this celebration? Of course, not just the simbolism that is somewhat similar in all cultures who refer to death. This celcebration has roots in the P'hurepecha culture, diferent from Aztec and other precolombian time. Perhaps you have different basis on different sources, can you share them. Saludos desde Michoacán Méx :)

[ELRLR]

Nope, it's not the Mexican Halloween, it's a tradition which comes from the natives who lived here.

[CrazyNative4]

@ELRLR the natives to this day still live in the same place!

[airsoftskater]

[lorelieprice]

a message to jcaminiti666: I am an educator using this video in my classroom. Your response sickens me. I should show your response to my students as what they should never become. Shame on you.

Please think before you open your mouth or write a comment. You are offending and disrespeting others. I am proud to be Mexican. I have the best of both worlds. I have the American Culture and the Mexican culture because both are my cultures.

Ignorant!!!

[MrBiggs099]

@INTELLINEO calm down...here ill make u a tortilla then we can drink over it..

[tichergeorge]

@INTELLINEO okay first the flu started in the united states 2nd this is a lot better than giving candy to kids with 10$ walmart costumes third your a little 12 year old kid whos mad cause your mom got fucked by mexicans shoving tacos up her ass and pissing in her mouth you were born by mistake you got mad with your whorish mom that loves mexicans and your sitting in your computer trolling when you could achieve something in life or kill yourself instead of playing wow all day

[browndemon386]

why is there crosses and christ figures they are jewish christian symbols of shit and aare not of aztec nature!!

[forcepe17]

the day of the dead was actually a prehispanic tradition, but when the spanish arrived to mexico they just destroyed the temples and all aztecs religion, the spanish began to spread their religion, but the aztecs refused to leave their tradition, that's why there are crucifixes and all that stuff, they mixed both religions, so they could keep adorating their gods without fearing the punish of the catholic church

[lorelieprice]

perhaps you should learn to spell before you sound off on others!

[browndemon386]

wow i am so offended!!! please dont offend me!! just go and get cancer already!!

[browndemon386]

yes speeling  thang rigth cures cancer!!! hohoehwitj

We do this to honor our deceased loved ones, we bring their favorite food to the grave as well. It's a celebration of thier life done with happiness not sorrow.

[KonohasFastWhiteFang]

hi : ) what happens to the food, do you eat it there, or is it cleaned up later ???
