I think the funeral home that posed a dead body on a motorcycle got the idea from me. There are a few things I'm wondering about.1. How will they get the body straightened out after this?
2. Wouldn't it be weird if, during the funeral, the body fell off to the side?
3. Wouldn't seeing your friend/brother/husband like this have an effect on your ability to mourn properly?
4. Do you think guests posed for photos with it?
I'm imagining the whole scene now with his family at the funeral home. They are leafing through a binder of various displays.
"See?" the funeral director says, "Here's one where he could be standing on a mountain top, yodeling. Oh and here he's serving himself some soft-swirl ice-cream. You can set that up with real flavors during the wake." The dead guy's Mom blows her nose into a hanky and nods. "Here's the lion tamer. That's a good one." They turn pages slowly and sadly until they get to the motorcycle,they pause, and the mom taps it twice with her finger.
This is just way too funny and very very odd. Reminds me of the Danish artist Marco Evaristti (http://www.evaristti.com/defaultF.html) very controversial artist (some sick pieces and others brilliant), well he is trying to find someone to sign a waiver to have their body given to him when they pass so he can do an art peace with the lifeless corpse...
