Only two things in life are certain: death and taxes. But while you can always hire an accountant to calculate how much you owe the IRS, getting someone else to expire on your behalf is still just a pipe dream.

So, if we have no choice about it, we might as well make our funerals fun – right? After all, it’s your last chance to call the shots, make your loved ones laugh, and/or stick it to everyone who’s still alive.

That’s exactly what these, uh… creative individuals did with their last wishes.

We bet they’re LOLing in their graves. 

In the name of going out with a bang – sometimes literally – here are 19 of the funniest, most bizarre funeral requests of all time.


1. “When I die, will someone please go to my funeral dressed like the grim reaper? Don’t say anything, just stand there…”

3. “At my funeral there is going to be closed casket and then it will be opened to reveal I’m not inside. They’ll turn on the ceiling fan and my lifeless body will swing around the room while the Space Jam theme song is played.”
