    Just make sure the body bag is weighed down good & heavy. The currents should do the rest.

    I reckon a viking funeral would be pretty cool, you might even get away with it seeing as our nation's capital was a viking settlement and all.

    Don't forget, when stitching up the body bag, make sure the last stitch goes through the nose. It shows whether they are actually dead or not.

    I remember when I was a child John F Kennedy Jr went missing at sea and they spent ages looking for the body. When they found it they buried him at sea. I couldnt why they had bothered searching.

    I want to be cremated when i die. Mainly because:

    Burial= maggot food
    Burial at sea = fish food

    I don't want to be food for something else.

    Yea and you get cremated and you'll still be food for either maggots or worms unless you get put in a jar on a mantle, where the dust mites will have a field day.

    I think it's the best way to go. but make sure you're good and tied down, bodies washing up on shore do scare the kids.

    buried too Christian
    sent down the Ganges too Indian
    cremated too Jewish

    apparently in some places you don't get your ashes back but just some of the ashes that were in the oven, (is there a specific word for a people oven) it all gets mixed with you and other people who were burned that day.

    Never thought of dat.

    I'd also assume that if you were seriously obese you would burn like a tyre for hours??
