actually, fear of death is something that is very american and anglo...for example take Halloween vs Day of the Dead..one is a celebration and one wants you to live in fear.
What a beautiful tradition, an amazing sublimation of grief into joy and comraderie. Most funerals feel quite lonely, everyone speaks in hushed voices and it is a very serious affair...I think the jazz funeral is one of the healthiest mourning rituals I've seen...I feel like they are saying we loved this persons spirit now the body is not important so lets share our love by dancing and singing and coming together in their honor. Jealous
@agoodcatholicgirl woman you have lost your mind! if you were educated in catholic school system you would know that africa is where jesus was educated and the pope prays to the "Black" Madonna every morning. The music in America as you call it rock and roll was "black music" stolen by whites kind of like how they steal everything... but that's neither here or there we are all americans and thanks to bush we are hated!
@tahan6 I've always wondered why people aren't knowledgeable before they begin to put their mouths in motion. Do your homework Mr. tahan6 and you will find that African Americans have a rich history of patents. Everyday you use many items created by African Americans. And to stoop so low as to call a race of people a negative name, gulls me. If it sickened you so much, why in the world you viewed the video. You certainly did not have to watch it. Get a life!
@agoodcatholicgirl Patents? Many items? Name one. In 6,000 years of recorded human history blacks have invented nothing that in any way contributes to human civilization in a positive manner.
"Nobody is more inferior than those who insist on being equal." ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
@agoodcatholicgirl No black has ever won a Nobel Prize in any of the arts or sciences. The importance of many of the alleged inventions made by blacks has been greatly inflated. This is true even of the most prominent black inventor, George Washington Carver...... not surprising when you consider the average IQ of Apefrica is 70 and of the average american black to be about 84.
@agoodcatholicgirl I did the research on your 'so-called' patents, whereby niggers claim to have invented to 'clothes dryer" refrigerator & 'oven'. The patents were for (in order) a wooden rack to hang clothes on CLOTHES DRYER, a cooler box with a chunk of ice (ice boxes already existed btw) the oven, a patent for a screw to use on ovens. List your 'rich history of patents' bitch, you're a liar. Maybe you need to do some fucking research instead of shitting out false info.
I'm white, and I love this kind of funeral march, it's the best way to salute someone rather than crying... I really felt sorry for reading so much hate and racism in this video.
@fdslk1 Awww that's so sweet, I don't even pay attention to those negative comments.. They are ignorant, and they do not understand our culture.. Which is ok because we are still going to continue to celebrate life regardless of what foolish people say..
@ElComadreja, You are an ignorant fuck. They aren't being primitive animals. They are being human, just like you. They are celebrating a death of a friend and respected musician. That was an arrogant statement "..shame gunfire didn't erupt as it usually does..." Go to New Orleans and try yapping your mouth like that. It's a shame what "primitive animals", such as yourself, type on the Internet.
A beautiful celebration of the deceased. One last "boogie" Bless you all. "When the saints go marching in "I want to be in that number"....Sadly there are many who won't...."
@BlacknesUnforgivable The earliest UNDISPUTED find of intentional burials, complete with being buried with tools, flowers etc., is 130,000 years ago by NEANDERTHALS shitass!! SO IT TURNS OUT YEAH, FUNERALS WERE INTRODUCED BY NEANDERTHALS, not YOU. Other evidence points to as long ago as 300,000 years. Also found in Slovenia a 45,000 year old flute made from the bone of a bear, made by Neanderthals, the EARLIEST EXAMPLE OF MUSIC. What's that again nigger? ANOTHER FAIL?
@Darwininian What dose civilization have to do with black culture? Niggers are a lot of things but civil or civilized is not one. The closest thing to a tradition these animals have at a funeral is a drive by shooting. But I must admit one less of these animals reeking havoc on the street and absorbing section ape housing and other taxpayer dollars is definitely cause for celebration!
this is SO beautiful. TRUST me these GENTLEMEN would not attend your funeral even if you paid them. This is only a local tradition - you were only invited because someone "aired" it. what is with all the hate for AMERICA?
I'm adding to my last will and testament: no blacks shall be allowed to attend my burial or funeral ceremonies, wake or memorial event held in my honor.
the actions of these monkeys are understandable due to the fact that monkeys cannot produce emotions like many other animals, all they can do is jump around and since these are monkeys with some human characteristics, they can utilize their vocals to amplify their monkeyshines so us people can somewhat understand them and therefore, be more annoyed
5:00-5:10 White funeral guy is like fucking animal coons. Just put the dead coon in the car already so we can get to the dump and dispose of this thing.
I'm surprised there were no shootings or stabbings in the funeral.....or the carcass being used on a pyre for ribs and legs.....and adding them spicy hot sauce that those things enjoy so much. We all know there can't be a wake or a funeral without some jig getting stabbed at least.
@FiveFifths nobody 'fears' this - they understand it completely and simply find 'dancing on the coffin' fucking disgusting, stupid fucking bitch. Let me guess, 'Julio' was killed in a drive by?
Black people are so awesome,i love the way they have funerals in New Orleans.Regular white funerals are so depressing and lame lol. I hope my funeral can be this happy !
Fucking primitive animals. No wonder they love to kill each other. IT'S PARTY TIME, LOOK AT ME WHITEY. It's a shame gunfire didn't erupt as it usually does at nigger funerals.
MAN THS IS NUTHIN BUT LOVE IS U NEVA BEEN TO A FUNERAL AND BECAME APART OF A HOMEGOING CELBRATION SENDING A LOVED ONE TO BE WITH THE LORD. WELL U SEEING ONE NY. IF U DNT LYKE IT GET THE FUCK OUT THE WAE
i know that in places such as mexico is disrespectful to stand on top of a dead persons grave. i undertand they joy here its cool. but i have to admit when i first saw it people jumping on the casket, i thought it was a bit disrespectfull. but like i said i totally understand its a completly different culture.

Wow, I guess it beats cryin all day long. But, shit do ya gotta dance all on my damn head? Please stop tilting my casket, I'm getting dizzy. I say they did the damn thing. All some folks get is a corney ass funeral wit a bunch of folks looking at your dead ass. Dance me out shit and don't play no corney music. Peace N.O.
This shit beautiful...It's crazy how hood Niggas keep a tradition like that...I don't give a fuck what go down in the N.O. This a city that makes me feel special for being black,lol!
@evewoman I would be happy and dancing on the carcass container myself knowing another nigger was dead and sent to the great waddiemelon patch. There is no heaven for niggers as they are all godless and soulless beasts.
Of course you are all "happy" as everything is provided for you and your sprogs with your taxpayer paid gibsmedat. You are incorrect however in the assumption that you are "people". Your kind is a parasitic sub-species and in no way are to be compared to "people".
@Tatt2edWarrior Well, you gotta give them credit. At least they didn't have sex with the body then eat it. These niggers are such Uncle Toms, wannabe whites.
@evewoman Oh it's not like we whites aren't happy about a nigger made good, but since for us it's politically 'incorrect' to express our true feelings about that, and plus given the natural stench of your naturally happy people, we preffer to stay away and watch the show from a safe distance.
@lawrence3w wow bloods huh ok well im louisiana born honey and I can clearly remember back in the 80s when the blood and crips sent people to New Orleans to regroup and they were all sent back in body bags...really doe...its all love here we dont hoo bang like that its love and survival!
LOL I just realized they were shouting "Julio". At first I thought it was " put him in the hole." I was a bit mortified. These people can dance at my funeral any time what a great thing to do celebrate someones life instead of cryingabout death.
70118 been to plenty funerals...this is just disrespectful...dancing is ok...celebration is ok...but dancing on top of the casket is NOT OK...just because u condone it doesnt make it right so stop trying to justify it...do what u do but dnt make excuses...second line is second line disrespect is disrespect
@tekure18 just because you don't condone it doesn't make it wrong. is it wrong to cremate? is it wrong to dump a body out at sea without actually burying it in the ground or crypt?
Now this is A FUNERAL man!! I am an undertaker in Brooklyn, NY and we have nothing like this. This is how I want to go out! Not staring at a casket for 3 days sobbing your eyes out. Cigars and Johnnie Black for everyone!
@doarip2 can I come to your funeral? You're right, no staring at a casket, sobbing, screaming, fainting etc. Celebrate their life and that they are going "home".
well damn I LIVE here in N.O. and I know about the second line funerals but I'll be damn if anybody should be STANDING OR DANCING ON THE CASKET!!!! SHOW SOME DAMN RESPECT! why did they even ALLOW that to happen? I wonder who this person was? how could the family be ok with this? I'm guessing his name was Julio??? sounds like that's what they were singing.
Yep, I want people dancing with me even If Im dead!, I want them dancing on my casket, so they now I can hear them, Thats the best goobye!...Dance, people, dance!
@smt2833 I didnt see anywone dance "on" a casket..... This is simply a New Orleans culture to celebrate life. Even the Bible says to rejoice when someone die, for their leaving this cruel world and your suppose to weep at birth. When I die, I do NOT want my people to sit around crying for me, but I want them to celebrate my life and most of all laugh because that's all I do. Opinions are like assholes, everybody have them and your entitled to yours....
@maasonmom look at it again baby, when you see the people dancing who have grown much taller than the crowd. they were on top on the casket. After they were deny entry into the bar and before he was placed in the hearst
@PatsBooks Caucasians ARE buried with a Jazz Funeral. Jules Kahn, who once owned a large portion of the French Quarter, and also an avid black and white photographer was buried with a huge secondline funeral.
@ahermannblue YOu are talkin' shit. The only viable culture in America is Black culture. We are the creators and everyone else is an imitator of us. This is a Black tradition imitating by those who have no culture.
on the cool i dont want no weak ass funeral if i die i want everyone to have fun n remember the good times we had together drink n party the night away
@smt2833 Its a New Orleans thing. Most people who aren't from there don't get it. This is a celebration of life. Traditionally these practices go way back.
Ok we know about the New Orleans way of funerals, but to shake a casket like that?? I'm surprise the dead man aint fall out!! Then to dance on top of it??!?!? They could have damaged the casket with the dead man in it. Poor funeral director. I know he was saying to himself, never again will i book a funeral as such.
@baptisthospital Wow... "poor funeral director"???... You're watching a young man leave this world, and you see hundreds of family and friends mourning him... and it's the funeral director you feel sorry for?!? Not only is he the one guy that DIDN'T lose someone special to him, but he's the one guy that made a profit. If he's doing business in NOLA, then this comes with the territory. Such a poor representative of my race too, the ONE white man acts annoyed & inconvenienced, yelling at mourners.
What's it to you? Did you pay for the casket. He is dead. The dead man comes from the same culture as these people.. I am sure he would be pleased that they helped ursher his spirit int o the other world.
Ok at first i was alittle distrubed..dancing on a casket never n my lifetime have I of this ...so I watched the video ..wow..this man that past was truly loved and this is how you celebrate a life.....amazing..and thank u for posting this ..it was an eye opener bc u dont have to have a church funeral and it doesnt have to b all sad and things....again thank u and my he rest in peace!!
this is how i'd liike my funeral to go, i'm not there anymore i can't make demands, but if i could wish anything from anybody else i eould wish that peoplple celebrate my life like this
This is what I want when I go, I want everyone to dance and sing and be happy. I think everyone would want their loved ones to be happy and celebrate your life. That was an amazing video thank you for sharing.
Thats how you say your goodbyes to the ppl you love!!! It's beautiful to see how some cultures connect. Where I come from thats how some of us would say our goodbyes but unfortunately tradition is dying, is even more beautiful to see that in New Orleans tradition lives.

LMAO @ THE FUNERAL DIRECTOR....JULIO WAS LOVED AND I DONT EVEN KNOW DUDE...My family is from New Orleans...my grandparents born and raised there and brought a lot of the traditions to the North, so when I finally went to visit I was able to appreciate the culture of New Orleans. I love it down there.

Interesting way of burial. Is there a name for this type of music? Or it is jazz? I hear New Orleans is famous for it. But it's like ShawAbbas said: A celebration of life.
In parts of Africa and South America there are funerals like these. Out of everything that was STOLEN from us some of our traditions will never die. This was Awesone! Thanks for posting.
@flamairzah very true. I have seen videos on here from the Carribean and South America. They were so much a like. Look up Mardi Gras Indians or Black New Orleans Carnival. It resembles Brazil, Haiti, Belize so forth. Many of our youngster didnt know the history of our traditions yet carry them on the same way they have been for hundreds of years.
I didn't know him but i'm frm the 7th ward and been 2 many funerals in the 6th since then i have moved 2 the midwest i pray &hope my mama bring me home for my funeral so i can go out in style!!!! boy they wasn't fukkin playin' they got dwn 4 a Real 1... N.O. LOVE
When I die, I want a New Orleans jazz funeral. I want people to go in my favorite bars (Pravda, Pirates Alley, The Dungeon, to mention a few) and I have a last drink in honor of me.
I am from Arkansas but I am in love with New Orleans and the culture. Best believe i will stipulate in my will that I specifically want a Jazz Funeral, and I will have a permit from the city secured so I can be carried through the streets!
@lpackgrays7781 Yeah, and have a deposit put aside for your favorite bar: take the coffin inside and all your friends are bought one last round: what better way to remember your old runnin partners and jug buddies?
I point to stuff like this when people ask me a lttle scornfully what's so unique about New Orleans.
Is this how the typical funeral goes in the NO? Seems like a parade. It's said we should cry at births and celebrate the passing on of loved ones. New Orleans has a very unique and captivating culture. Wish to go there more and check more things out!
@PengarooShow umm...with most funerals there is a second line, yes. Normally it's not this big but yes, family members, friends, and those that had earned your respect will come and dance and sing for your life.
What happens is a very mournful song will be played while the casket is taken from the church that held service. While walking to the graveyard the song becomes more and more joyous and by the time the bereaved are heading back the whole mood is has changed into a celebration.
I have a bit of encounter emotions about this ritual... Cause I'd love my family could be this happy the day I die instead of a total wreck but I don't think I could be dancing on the casket of someone I love...
This is a celebration of life, not a selfish weeping of death. That is a european tradition to be sad for a loss. It is a cicipian tradition of celebrating the life of a fortunate soul who has gone on to the sernity of heaven.
@ShawAbbas - couldn't agree with you more. Im German and we don't celebrate death, we moarn.
I remember at my grandfathers funeral, I was just a teen, he was a great man and his community loved him. His funeral packed a church to the rafters. Grandma asked all of the grandkids to speak, but I refused to speak of how I missed him, instead, I spoke of a funny time that I remembered him by, and this made the intire church laugh and crack up. I know my grandpa laughed in his coffin too.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
that is nothing more than Look at me Syndrome. How is dancing on a casket showing a sign of love? That was neat to see but really alot of Look at me Syndrome going on there. Classic
This was a loss of control. It turned into a look at me I loved him more show. It took away from the young precius life that was lost. That is who the attention should have been for. I do admitt the idea is very interesting. But this was a loss of control. I am not putting anyone down.
@scottyray12 That's his son's. It's them taking one last dance with their father. That mind seem strange to you but the family would have had it no other way. In fact, you can see them helping the youngest up on the casket.
I'm not judging your reaction, just saying, wouldn't you want your family so at peace with your passing that all they wanted was one last dance? I know I do. How lucky that I grew up right next door to this amazing city, come one, come all.
Best funeral ever..

@evewoman I would be happy and dancing on the carcass container myself knowing another nigger was dead and sent to the great waddiemelon patch. There is no heaven for niggers as they are all godless and soulless beasts.
Of course you are all "happy" as everything is provided for you and your sprogs with your taxpayer paid gibsmedat. You are incorrect however in the assumption that you are "people". Your kind is a parasitic sub-species and in no way are to be compared to "people".

@smt2833 I didnt see anywone dance "on" a casket..... This is simply a New Orleans culture to celebrate life.

When I die, I do NOT want my people to sit around crying for me, but I want them to celebrate my life and most of all laugh because that's all I do. Opinions are like assholes, everybody have them and your entitled to yours....

You're watching a young man leave this world, and you see hundreds of family and friends mourning him... and it's the funeral director you feel sorry for?!? Not only is he the one guy that DIDN'T lose someone special to him, but he's the one guy that made a profit. If he's doing business in NOLA, then this comes with the territory. Such a poor representative of my race too, the ONE white man acts annoyed & inconvenienced, yelling at mourners.

PengarooShow 1 year ago
@PengarooShow umm...with most funerals there is a second line, yes. Normally it's not this big but yes, family members, friends, and those that had earned your respect will come and dance and sing for your life.
What happens is a very mournful song will be played while the casket is taken from the church that held service. While walking to the graveyard the song becomes more and more joyous and by the time the bereaved are heading back the whole mood is has changed into a celebration.

@ShawAbbas - couldn't agree with you more. Im German and we don't celebrate death, we moarn.
I remember at my grandfathers funeral, I was just a teen, he was a great man and his community loved him. His funeral packed a church to the rafters. Grandma asked all of the grandkids to speak, but I refused to speak of how I missed him, instead, I spoke of a funny time that I remembered him by, and this made the intire church laugh and crack up. I know my grandpa laughed in his coffin too.

@scottyray12 That's his son's. It's them taking one last dance with their father. That mind seem strange to you but the family would have had it no other way. In fact, you can see them helping the youngest up on the casket.
I'm not judging your reaction, just saying, wouldn't you want your family so at peace with your passing that all they wanted was one last dance? I know I do. How lucky that I grew up right next door to this amazing city, come one, come all.
