@@nekocat12 yep and i bet a lot of the requests will have them ask to have astronomia played
This is actually brilliant. Emotion is just energy. They are processing their grief in a positive way and celebrating the life that was lived vs the life that was lost. I love it
Lies again? Nashville Dallas Black Red
It’s weird seeing them do this without the Astronomia music playing
Follow me
Or rizki ayuba
They're already repackaging. They never knew they would go nuclear. Watch out for their next funeral event near you!!
I know right 😂😂
Yeah
Imagine the body bouncing around the coffin just vibing
Wot de fok ith thith thit😂
And then the casket opens as the body flies and then the sounds of bones crushing and then they throw the body back into the casket.
😂💀
It’s got some dope sunglasses on too
😂
_it’s a shame the person in the coffin couldn’t know how lovely their funeral was._
Are you sure? 👍
[💃🕺🎶👯 inside⚰️ all the way to her creator🌌]
Everybody’s vibing until they drop the coffin.
Everyone : quiet for 1 minutes and ....
SHOCK
🤣🤣🤣
Do u even realize how much of a legend the person in the coffin is.
A she.

The bereaved family said it her mother.
True legend

Ladies and gentlemen: we are witnessing a meme being born
It's already born 3 years ago, it's just that we only discovered it recently
More like witnessing it's pure origin.
The only difference here is, they're not playing astronomia as the music...

2020, when this is a meme: Everyone watching this
therefore, being a meme makes anything popular
Not really, there's a meme that actually ruin a person's life rather than makes them popular

Who would've known that this would be one of the greatest memes ever
Especially considering this vid was posted nearly three years ago.
yes
Thanks to covib 19 they become famous 😂
Aaww this is such a wonderful thing.
I hope this is what my loved ones do for me when I die😊
2020, it was the most popular meme in that year. 2022, it’s no popular anymore but it’s still funny, even isn’t popular anymore the meme will always be in our memories
My dad when I was born: This child will achieve incredible things
Me in 2020: *_Yo dude I found the coffin meme original video_*
Your dad must be very proud
I’m proud too
You did well, you did well.

*CZcams: This is the perfect year to recommend this.*

It’s funny how this is 3 years old and it turned into a meme when we have a global pandemic.
Stay at home or dance with them
I would like to dance with them
Dance with them in a casket fasho.
R 3 L A X R 3 M A N 3 N C 3 💀
I don't like dancing so I would stay home.

If I was in that coffin you know I'd be jamming. Funerals really should be celebrations of a life lived.
Imagine you're supposedly dead inside the coffin. You wake up and you just are shaking randomly. And you hear freaking people cheering
Why people are watching:
%00.99 Other reasons
%99.01 MEMES
99.99% because of Memes
100% because of the MEME

Brilliant. This is how to celebrate the living experience-dancing till the end and after.
Lmao my friend is from Ghana and once she said “we have the best funerals” but never elaborated
well now you know.
Send her link muahahaha
Is indeed a very good funeral. (˶‾᷄ ⁻̫ ‾᷅˵)
What I love about this is the fact that it's becoming a part of Ghanaian culture. They're giving people a happy way to see their relative for the last time, and it's a reminder that funerals are supposed to be that: happy.

@MICHAEL MONFREDO If white people were slaved by african then you guys wont respect african very much would you?
MICHAEL MONFREDO you seem like the kind of people to get upset over the fact that black people can say the n word but other races cannot.
@MICHAEL MONFREDO u cant deny that this funeral be looking lots happier than your typical white man's funeral though
That's so sweet.
If I ever die I need this to happen to my funeral.
