  • @roaringwaterbay Hey ass hole, you try doing what we do, and you know what? It helps the family pass closure and move on with their lives. Yes it's a graphic and sometimes gross job, but, it is an art and a science.

    LMAO living off corpses? What? You think we eat them too?!

  • If i was a funeral director, I'd treat each of the deceased with respect as if they were one of my own because if that was me on the other end I'd want to be treated with the same respect and dignity!!!!

  • @roaringwaterbay You obviously have never witnessed an embalming.

    Embalming fluid fixes tissues and temporarily preserves the body so that the mourners can view the deceased for the last time and say goodbye in a dignified manner. There is absolutely a scientific and artistic balance to each case.

    The emotional reward from families being able to say goodbye after a tragedy is amazing.

  • @Champ675 Our primary, unofficial "motto" is "Reverence for the Dead".

    Almost every funeral director / embalmer treats each deceased person as if they were a close relative to ensure a dignified service to both the dead and the living mourners.

    It's a hell of a profession, but seeing how families are relieved when you help them through such a tough time is worth it.

  • @WhoIsCarla roaringwaterbay, that is.

  • @jtognazzi He's just trolling.

  • @SHAWN119100 They probably stitch it back up.

  • This is one field where people are dying to meet you.

  • What happens if they get some really obese dude that is named Bubba, and weighs like 500 lbs? Do they really have boxes that big to put em in? Just wonderin?

  • @kidkong584 I think they learn how to embalm hamburgers first! haha!

  • @roaringwaterbay the chemistry is considerably more complicated than pickling, and everyone is entitled to their opinions, many hold similar ones to yours; I don't think however there is any more rewarding artistry than to be able to show a mother her child after some awful violence has been done to her, or he has been the victim of some tragic and disfiguring accident; some people find closure from within, and some find it's beginning at a viewing, that is very rewarding to me!
