I'm going to med school when I die. I've donated myself to science. My daughter wants to go to one of those csi body farms.

1. My brain is going to a neurology study.
2. Rest of my body to whatever science wants me.

I've given my life to science, I'll give my death to science too.

I want to rebel from the high costs of funerals and be buried in a refrigerator box in my backyard. Since the law won't allow that, I hope to have enough strength to make it into the woods. It's about time we humans gave back to Mother Nature. I am having second thoughts about donating my body so that others may have my bits and pieces to save their lives. What if my body parts saves a pedophile or rapists or the next crazy, murderous dictator?

I want to be composted.

This particular facility looks like what I imagined the Dying Hospital to look like in Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. That sealed the deal. ?

Assuming I'd be relatively healthy meat, it would be nice to be laid out on the African Plains, and get recycled into all those wonderful animals (assuming they wouldn't be extinct !). But I l know that's likely not allowed.

So next choice is being part of the Body Farm, to help catch bad guys ! That could work.

Ideally I would like to be put in a rocket and sent into the sun. Back to star stuff. Since that's a wee bit totally impossible I'll be cremated and then scattered in a place I'll suggest, or anywhere really. Minimum fuss. I've specified that already.

My drivers license lets whoever first ends up with my corpse take as many of my organs as they can use. As for the leftovers, I have some money set aside to have them cremated and disposed of at sea. I like the idea of green burials and such, but can't afford them. I'm trying to leave as much money as possible to whoever my survivors are.

I'm torn between donating my organs to help save lives vs. donating my body to science. I wish I could do both.

I am donating my body to science. The returned cremanes are to be interred with those of my husband. That way, our children will have a sense of "where we are."

Have you considered a green burial. There are green burial cemetaries. You are wrapped in simple cloth covering and buried in shallower grave. The idea being that your body will decompose and give nutrient back to the environment. Nor all states support or allow. Colorado and New Mexico do.

Donated to science, maybe they'll radiate me and bring me back as the first superhero!

I want cremated and used to feed a tree pod. I want to be a big beautiful tree!

I like the theatrics of being put on a viking longship and set on fire.
I'd really like to be launched into space though.
If my wife's having to deal with it then i'd rather not be a bother and just go in the bin with the other waste on a wednesday night.
Dont have any problems with medical research wanting my body, or being sent to a cadaver farm if thats easier for her.
If my brother is dealing with my funeral then I demand he uses my carcass for something inappropriately funny that may cause mild (but easily recoverable) distress to others.
Im also ok with taxidermy.

Google Bios Urn... I want something like that, basically the exact idea you have, but (hopefully) done efficiently so that you don't need to buy a coffin.

I originally wanted my body to be donated to the body farm. However, I like the idea of being in a pod thingie that grows into a tree...

I want to rot and give my energy to living organisms that can use it.

It's a pity it involves an afterlife as I quite like the Klingon way. As soon as the body is dead you gather by the body, look upwards, scream/yell very loudly to warn the spirits in Sto'vo'kor that a warrior is coming.
You then throw the carcass away

I'm not so much decided on something specific, just so long as I'm not locked in a box. I am an organ donor, but beyond that, I could be just as cool with being buried in a way to decompose the rest of me usefully for vegetation, or a viking burial at sea. On the other hand, transhumanist tech could possibly make death nearly a choice--dare I say, within my lifetime. I suppose when I'd choose to go then, again, just wanting to be useful in some way, without needing my body nicely coffined for the rapture.

I’ve always wanted to rot wheee I fell like any other animal, but because of this thinking man nonsense, cremation.

You should look into Bios Urn.

I really dig this concept: [eternalreefs.com] I could definitely enjoy attracting marine communities to congregate for future generations' fishing and scuba diving pleasure.

I want my body donated to science. Anything that is leftover can then be buried so that I can fertilize a new generation of something.

I don't care.

Whatever my family choose to do with them and whatever Iis cheapest. They can bury me in the garden for all I will care.

That said, I really always wanted a Viking funeral - sent out to sea in a burning longboat!

That'll do nicely thanks.

I've told my kids to take my ashes mix them with clay , mold 1.5" balls , glaze and fire them and hand them out as party favors at my memorial get together . If I know my kids its not gonna happen . Get rid of the body as soon as possible I'm dead your alive move on I loved you .

I have signed up for MedCure. When you die, they pick up your body for medical tests and after about 6 weeks they cremate it and give the remains to family. This is all free, you simply make one phone and they do everything and if it will help someone, I'm all for it.
