Dumpster 0 #2 September 7, 2006 Burn my ass up and spread the ashes over the last DZ I jumped at. I really don't think I'll give a rat's ass what they do with my carcass once I'm dead and gone. Easy Does It Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,517 #4 September 7, 2006 Use all the usable pieces. If enough is left over adn the family can deal with it, use the rest for dissection practice. Cremate whatever is left when done, unless there's something that takes less space and energy by then.

weegegirl 2 #9 September 7, 2006 It's morbid, yes. But it's a good question. I honestly think that everyone should have SOMEONE, preferably in their immediately family, that they discuss this with. If not, write it down and put it somewhere safe that will be found if it is ever needed. Me? I would like to be cremated. I would like some of my ashes spread over my home dropzone, and some of my ashes spread in the Ocean off the coast of South Carolina, where I vacationed in the summer as a kid. Then I would like a memorial stone placed by the side of my Father's grave. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLFXpert 0 #10 September 7, 2006 It's elaborate (what'd you expect?) but since you asked (and yes, this is all in my will.): Take all my organs and everything useful and donate to those who can use them. Burn the rest of me and ship my ashes to LifeGem. Survivor must wear me forever.Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yamtx73 0 #12 September 7, 2006 Immediate cremation... it's the least expensive way to deal with the body.... I certainly won't be needing it again and I can't see wasting all that money on a funeral... have a party instead...The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

ImGunnaJump 0 #14 September 7, 2006 Boy, you are really feeling bad, aren't you??!! That must be some sore throat you've got - hope you are feelin' better soon!Coincidentaly, a friend who is always nervous about my skydiving recently asked me about this and wondered if I had a plan. The answer was easy for me: cremation. For me part of it is pragmatic...I don't want to see 10K go into the ground (or whatever they cost these days). I'd rather my family use that for some other purpose than putting me under. Plus, there's something about the idea of spreading my ashes out there with nature that I like...an ash jump would suit me just fine. But she brought up a point I hadn't thought of. She was very close to her sister, and after she died of breast cancer it helped in her grieving process to be able to place flowers every now and then at her grave - she told me I should consider my family's wishes in this since they are the ones left behind. I dunno. I still want the ash dive, but I see her point now."...I've learned that while the "needs" in life are important (food, water, shelter), it's the "wants" in life (ice cream, chocolate, sex) that make it worth the effort."

kelpdiver 2 #17 September 7, 2006 I have a spot 100ft under in mind. Actually, it's a ledge that drops to 2000, so if they scatter me there, should get good distribution. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waltappel 1 #20 September 7, 2006 Cremation for sure. Putting a dead body on display is sick even by *my* standards! Unless, of course, there is some sort of entertainment or educational value and most funerals probably get very low marks for both. edited to add: I suppose being fed to the raccoons would be ok too.

Bobbi The naked dead bodies I've seen weren't all that entertaining, but I suppose if you put them in funny poses or set up some sort of "have your picture taken with a dead body" concession it could be entertaining.
