Enjoying an occasional drink every once in a while is one thing. Then there’s wanting to be buried in a giant booze bottle forever.
Anto Wickham, a 48-year-old bourbon fan, has requested a giant Jack Daniel’s bottle as his final resting place. The Jack Daniel’s Coffin was created by John Gill, the owner of Crazy Coffin. The coffin stands 10-ft. high and cost Wickham $50,000. Rye in peace.

When you’re an undertaker, and take the initiative to erect the world’s largest coffin — a death-themed restaurant seems inevitable. That’s just what a few undertakers in the Ukraine did, opening Eternity — a one-door windowless coffin for your dining pleasure. And the decor… death.
Walls, lined with funeral flowers and other more human-accommodating coffins, and a menu that includes “Nine Day” and “Forty Day” salads, named for local mourning rituals. No mention if they keep food at optimal temps, or not — you know, just to help their “other business.”

You spent your life wrapping everything in bacon. Now you can be wrapped in the almighty meat candy for all eternity — maybe. The Bacon Coffin is brought to us by J&D’s Foods. And as much as I’m looking forward to my first bacon-themed funeral — we’ve called bullshit on J&D’s and the authenticity of their products before.
However, for the non-skeptic pork-lovers, the Bacon Coffin might be available for $2999.99 — for when you or a loved one die of bacon-related causes.
