I personally want to donate my body to science aka "become an anatomical gift" heh.

Be left in the desert for the vultures.

(Do vultures live in the desert? If not, where ever there are vultures or other things that scanvenge carrion)

Well, i want my body to be burned and then my ashes thrown into the Thar desert(South-east Pakistan/nearth-west India) while its windy at sunset.

Yes, a bit extreme, isnt it?

I could leave mine to science... fiction. But, really, what do I care? Just leave it out for the garbage truck or something.

Not extreme. I figure if someone has a dying wish that something be done to his/her body why not let them have it? Its not like they're really going to be asking for anything else.....

i want my body to be frozen. then brought back to life in the future when a cure is found

I truly dont care what is done with my corpse. I wont be around to see whatever is done with my cadaver so im not too bothered.
(OK the idea of one of the morticians being a gay necrophiliac slightly bothers me but I gonna stop thinking like that while I go eat)

I want to be cremated, and my ashes be made into bong for all to get high.

Either than that, I want my ashes to be compressed into diamond. And be sold to the highest bidder.

I suppose I'd prefer to be cremated, but at the end of the day I really don't care. I'm going to be dead, so I'm not going to be too bothered! ;)

I want it to come back to life.




But not in a scary zombie way.

Cremated and interred in the lake by my family's summer cottage, the same as my mother and father. I want a certain amount of privacy, i.e. no official records, because I fear the good intentions of potential colatteral descendants who may fall under the sway of the Mormons.

They baptize their dead ancestors posthumously, you see. And as I have, with purposeful intent, led my life unbaptized, my soul not promised up for judgement to another man's concept of God, I could conceivably be sent to the Mormon version of Hell by the Mormon version of God. Even though I don't subscribe to Mormon, and have my own incredibly rewarding relationship with MY own version of God.

Kinda makes my heart go 'thud'.

I want it to be blown up like that whale so I may annoy people even after im gone.

I intend to donate any functioning organs to the NHS so I may help people even after I'm gone. The rest of me can burn.

Mikorlias of Imardeavia

Any viable organs given out to whoever needs them.

Anything left that science wants given to science (sometimes they can use spines, etc. that can't be donated to living people).

Anything left after that cremated.

Family can do whatever the heck they want with the ashes.

It's not like they are going to notice you didn't do it either.

I always hoped that i would die from spontaneously exploding while skydiving over a densely populated area.... if not i would like creamation

Well, I plan on being dead by the time I'm 24, and most likely I'll have been blown up or something, so there's really not much body there to work with after I am dead.

Why 24?

I'd donate all the usual stuff (Eyes, lungs, heart, liver etc.) and be cremated.

Bodies are surprisingly expensive to dispose of, so after people have extracted any organs, etc. that could be of use, I hope they have the sense to dispose of the remains as cheaply as possible. I'm guessing that cremation is cheaper than burial, and since its illegal to throw me in the garbage or leave me out for scavengers, I guess that's the choice.

I want it to be discovered as not actually being my body but a brilliant deception in my hot insurance scam!

I'm already on record as an organ donor. Other than that - hell, fire me out of a cannon for the amusement of the masses. I couldn't give a stuff.

The most creative thing that really exists; I want to be cremated, and my ashes compressed into a diamond. Yes. They can really do that. :)

This is assuming that my body can be found. I'm afraid that it's very likely that my corpse will never be found. *nod*

I wouldn't want my death to be in vain. In that spirit, I want my corpse to be eaten by whoever is hungry and willing.

In this order:

Organ donation
Scientific research
Cremate anything that remains.

I'm on file. :)

I want mine to be launched into space or sent to my futur cxanabble restrant

Interesting....

When I die, I want to be placed in a tree and have it sealed up. My hope is that some poor logger to come by an cut open the tree, and my body will fall out and grab him, mentally scarring the hapless lumberjack for life.

be put on a stick and used to scare fifth graders at halloween

When I'm dead, i want to be buried in the same grave as the hottest bitch who ever lived

Ok, so here's the plan. I am to be cremated, then my ashes are going to be packed into many, many roman candles. Then my family and friends will light off the fireworks to celebrate my greatness. You see, fireworks are the best analogy I can think of for life; so bright, loud, beautiful, and most importantly, short.

Funeral Pyre on a flammable barge casted off into Davey Jones.

I'm still rooting for the immortality option. If that doesn't work out, I don't much care.

I would like to be burnt on a Pyre.

I'd like my body to be donated to the Female Necrophiliacs Society.

I want it to come back to life.




But not in a scary zombie way.

What he said, but definitely in a scary way.

Stuffed and put on the couch.

I'm yet another of the "use what you can, burn the rest" people...

It just makes the most sense to me... After all, why waste valuable resources that can potentially save lives and/or advance our knowledge of the human anatomy (which, in turn, can help save more lives)?

And I just don't see the point in burial in modern times... Why waste perfectly good land?

So, cremation is the route I want... As for what to do with the ashes? I really don't care... Sprinkle them somewhere (my mother says that when the time comes, she'd like us to take her ashes, and go on some really exotic vacation, and sprinkle them there, which sounds kind of neat), keep them in a jar on the mantle if you want to keep me nearby, use them in the litter box, I don't care...lol

But that whole diamond thing sounds awesome... I think I'll make a note of that...

Provided my body isn't Skull-fucked when i'm gone, it don't bother me what happens to my body.

Take my corpse up by helicopter, and dump it somewhere in the Alaskan wilderness.

After all, wolves and bears may not be scavangers, but I doubt they'd pass up an easy meal...after all, we all need to eat. :p

I want my organs to be used by those who need them most - as food, toys, medical stuff, whatever. As for my skeleton; I want it to be anamatronically setup to dance everytime somebody puts 10p into the display case. It is through this that I hope to become Brittians richest skelington.

I want my body fat rendered down for soap and sent as a small, unidentified parting gift to my six nemeses. Then I want to be interred in an enormous gothic style mausoleum with traps and guarded by a whole sect of fanatical monks. If any brave explorer fights his way through the traps, insane cultists and giant bad tempered flesh eating guinea pigs then he will find my ultimate treasure - all of my depressing and god-awful poetry inscribed all over my grinning skeleton.

Now THAT is a post-mortem disposal plan.

I want to be strapped to the first nuclear bomb dropped in the inevitable armageddon!

if this was started last april- doesnt it constitute gravedigging? if the start date is wrong, and it was just began, it has already been done-

European dates, honey. It was started in November.

It's still some hardcore gravedigging, however.

I'm hoping I'll become a zombie.

I'm already a lich, so I don't have to worry about dying. It is quite beneficial.

my first choice would be to be boiled in a vaccuum so that my remains sublimate from solid to gas form. barring that, i would like to be compressed into a diamond, and to have my future descendents add their remains to the diamond when they pass on.

if both of those fail, and i can't get my intact corpse shot into space, then my final choice would be cremation.

Ooooh! I heard that was expensive. Did your insurance cover it? :D

Actually, I'm hoping that my body is never found so that people will wonder if I'm still alive somewhere.

Drowning in quicksand sound good. :)

I don't care about my body really - its just a shell, a vessel for my soul. I want nothing in death but to be remembered as a good and a kind person.

"When the body sinks into death, the essence of man is revealed. Man is a knot, a web, a mesh into which relationships are tied. Only those relationships matter. The body is an old crock that nobody will miss. I have never known a man to think of himself when dying. Never."
--Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Ooooh! I heard that was expensive. Did your insurance cover it? :D

No, unfortunately, my insurance didn't cover it. But I was able to write it off on my taxes as a business expense.

I'm kind of hoping to die in such a fashion that I don't leave remains.

duh. stupid me. but why should i care what date it is in outer mongolia. sheesh.
matt- read the last few pages of the brutal honesty thread. i want to hear you crack up.

I sort of think this may happen to me as well...
"I know my fate. One day there will be associated with my name the recollection of something frightful, of a crisis like no other before on earth, of the profoundest collision of conscience, of a decision evoked against everything that until then had been believed in, demanded, sanctified. I am not a man. I am dynamite."
You just have to love Nietzsche! :p

Outer Mongolia? Isn't the US the only nation that does mm/dd/yy? Doesn't the rest of the world do dd/mm/yy?

I want to die in a way that people REMEMBER that I died. I want people ten generations from now to talk about the day that Matthew Billings died.

What? Like burning up upon re-entry? Or parachuting naked over antarctica?

Or a giant wave of destruction.

Maybe something televised. Like being on the crater of Mt. St. Helens as it erupts and seeing the vidoe footage of the pyroclastic cloud race toward you.

Personally, I want my death to be a mystery.

But that would be my second choice. To die in such a way that it gets televised and the average viewer's reaction is: :eek: 'WOW! You know he's dead!'

Yeah. I want my death to be remembered for the ages. I don't necessarily want anyone to die as a result of my death, but I would like my death to be the cause of widespread destruction. Like in Trigun where Vash destroys New July and no one dies, but the city was in ruins. Like that.

I'd much sooner they talk of the way I lived, than of the way I died. ;)

I think it is a foregone conclusion that they will talk about my life if my death goes according to plan.

Ahhh - to be remembered. :)

Hmm.... Cremated atop a huge pyre with two coins on my eyes, just like the ancient greeks. Then the ashes are placed into the funeral food, and so the Speaker can actually say "He is in all of us."

Just make sure I'm not handed over to the necrophiliacs' convention in Leeds.

Whatever. I hope that I feed other life, but I don't care much.

Collect my bones from the Nantahala Forest where I will go to die and give them a military funeral with full honors. :)

I am an organ donor, after they take out all my usable organs, i don't care what happens to my body.

Organ donation. Then I will be fed through a woodchipper. In a plane. So my remains are spewed all over the countryside.

Of course, if all goes according to plan, I will be a lich. Or should I be unable to learn spellcasting, a death knight.

That would be creepy, to have your body cut up and all by students who could care less about you...disturbing thought, even if it is for the good of science.

I've seen what people have said of your picture in the Most Beautiful Woman thread, so if you die very prematurely, you may want to reconsider...and save your body some dignity? :)

A supreme, SUPREME act of folly would be required. People have done some stupid stuff, and they're only found on stupid sites. No, you have to do something outstanding, to stand above them all. Like, nuke yourself, or something. Run around nekkid on the white house lawn with a gun and then pretend to accidentally shoot yourself. That's sure to go down in the books.

But don't ask me. Ask Lunatic Goofballs.

Well, as a medical student who has participated in cadaver labs, I feel the need to give another student the same opportunity I had. We treated our cadaver with the utmost respect, seeing as how they donated their body so that we could learn from it. :)

When I die I want to be put on a 20 foot pike and set in the front lawn of my most hated enemy for all time, that way he gets to smell my dead ass every single morning when he wakes up.

i dont see why i would care about my body since im dead
