My uncle passed away 3 years ago, and he wanted to buried under a tree. He didn't want any chemical process so we just covered him with linen and flowers. It was winter, so I was bit worried if the tree might die, but it is growing beautifully. It is local government approved site, so we don't have to worry too much about minor things, like wildlife diggning or flooding.
@@whosaidthat4299 we did something similar in my family except it wasn’t a family member more of a pet we buried a bunch of Cherry pits on top of one of our dogs grave that we dug, We’ve moved since then so i don’t know if anything ever grew the there but You never know.
I'm an American, & my wife and I absolutely LOVE this! We've always thought about the cost & closing the circle with the standard western burial. We thought cremation was a better option, but this is hands down the tops!
I've always hated the idea of being buried in a coffin, I just wanted my body to go back to the earth. This is a genius idea and I'm honestly tearing up knowing that I can have my final wish 🥺
@People said my Username was Offensive you can still donate your organs and be buried an eco-friendly way. Organ harvesting happens at a hospital or other medical facility designed to handle organ harvest. I plan on donating as much as possible (I have a full "take whatever you want" clause in my "Do Not Resucitate" order). My current death plan is also outlined that I do not want to be embalmed, whatsoever, and buried as naturally as the laws allow in whatever state I die in.
@People said my Username was Offensive I'm located in the United States, and some states have seriously backwards laws about burial designed to keep the funeral industry from earning big bucks. The Order of the Good Death is an organization working to make natural burial and other eco-friendly death practices legitimate and available in all States (among other things). I believe Caitlin Doughty, known on UA-cam as "Ask a Mortician" is the one who started it with other death industry workers. You should check it out if your haven't already! It's helped inform me so much and helped me be more comfortable with my own mortality and the mortality of my loved ones.
This is actually genius, becuase I’ve heard many of my freinds say that they want to spread their ashes around the world. Thats an interesting idea, but if you choose to be burried in this coffin, you are becoming a part of the nature and it is almost kind of beautiful and reminds of the movie Avatar, where everything is connected and goes back to the nature.
You'd 'become' part of nature with or without this coffin. Even as ashes, if they're scattered eventually the minerals in them will be absorbed by plants. And the CO2 generated by cremation will also be absorbed by plants. We were never separate from nature, so it's not possible to 'become' part of nature.

My dad has said since I was little that he just wanted to be buried in a plain pine box (and only that much so he could be in the family cemetery, which doesn't allow unboxed burials) so he could decompose as fast as possible. I'm hoping that by the time he does go, these will be available in the US.
@@mickolesmana5899 there are concerns about 1. wild animals digging the body up, 2. water contamination, 3. issues around sometimes the only way you can hold some one legally when there are suspicious circumstances around the death of an individual is by going with the laws around desecrating a corpse. Like when a guy leaves his dead mom to sit and decay in her room in his house for months or even years, to the point no once figure out how she died....
It's actually the city that requires burial in "an approved manner" mostly because there were issues with people dying and not being buried. That's happening in parts of the world with Covid right now, families can't afford to cremate or bury their dead, and so they dump the body.
Man, imagine being one of those researchers. It sounds so quirky to be a compostable mushroom coffin inventor, but this is a beautiful and genius project! I love how eco-friendly (and more affordable) this is and I hope this business can continue to grow 🌱
That moss bead inside the coffin is beautiful! Because it does look like styrofoam but that moss really captures what many wany their remains to become
@The Devil All The TimeYeah, I am going to have to break this to ya. Even if all the people you hate die before you, your still going to be dying too... it's not a trade.
The only reason why people might prefer the wooden one over loop is that it's fancy, so why not add natural color and other materials and design it to appeal to your customers. This way it would be a win-win. Love the idea though!!!
Haha I was just thinking “I wonder if she has an email to send this to her” as I remembered watching her video on her wanting to be eaten by animals after death
@arcanesage I'm Preety sure your immune system will mostly fight it for a decent portion of time. Infact we have a lot of phisiological defenses against these types of things. Fungi still is very much works in the cellular level like how bacteria would. Infact it's this same biology that prevents insects from planting eggs in healthy skin or illnesses to not be able to penetrate through your body unless a cut is present. But this is just view on a topic I barley have researched so probably is just better to google it.
Damn it I already have so much plans for my death lmao I’m planning to donate my organs and then get buried organically with a seed (?) so as time goes the tree will grow, now I want this
Bodies get buried pretty deep underground but seeds need to be close to the surface to grow. You'd have to have the tree planted above where you're buried
ARMY, me too! I have already been thinking about donating my dead body to medical schools and donate my organs to those in need. But of course, I have to take good care of my health first for me to achieve that. I have already paid out my burial plan but more and more I'm convinced that I want to end up being useful somewhere and this mushroom coffin being helpful to the environment is genius!
@@memelyshorts643 tell your father to teach you real life skills and proper morals other than living a pathetic existence fueled by the approval of others.
You can accomplish virtually the same thing by building coffins out of plywood then lining them with a thin layer of mycelium panels for a fraction of the cost. It's okay to say that you're concerned about the Earth but to say that's your company's Main concern is nearsighted. You also have to focus on producing an affordable product, which is why these green companies rely on a political movement that advocates for their success legislatively. It's foul play.
This is along the lines of what I want to happen to my body after I die. I most certainly don't want to be cremated, but I also don't want my body and its enclosure to be a burden on the land.
So now we have two types of four options for environmental choices: Burial: Mushroom Box or Vulture Tower. (feed the worms or the birds) Cremation: Tree Pot or Artificial Diamonds. (feed your family or be their accessories)
I personally wouldn't like the body of a loved one to be out in the open for vultures to feed, under the earth, you "rest in peace" literally as you directly just turn to mush and mix with the soil.

My husband and I have discussed what we want done with our bodies, he wants his remains to be nutrients for a tree. I want mine either donated to the decomposition research projects in order to help science identify remains or have a natural burial in something like this preferably in a place where my family can see the beauty of nature and think of my passing as part of that beauty. We both agreed we don't want a traditional sad funeral but instead just a gathering where people share their favorite stories with us while eating food and remembering the good times we had, we think the whole black dress sad faces just breeds sadness where we want to not exactly celebrate that we died but celebrate that we had such good times with everyone.

Death is not the end but an entrance into the next step of the never ending cycle. What better way to do this than being guided by life that presents itself in another form
I was planning on being buried in an unpainted wooden coffin that I made myself, and no embalming. This Loop coffin is really appealing, however. I hope I live a while yet but when I give my carbon back, I want it to be very natural.
Basic, Ikea funeral it is for me. I and most people I know here in the UK find it weird that in the US you like to embalm folks and put them on display after they've died, and mentioning that you use concrete... I can't even imagine why. Wood box, buried in the ground, helping the cycle begin again. I don't see any other way for me when I die.
I’m all for saving the planet, even in death! Definitely think the mushroom/mycelium coffin is the way forward, but the rip off funeral industry will have a hissy fit at providing such an ecologically sound and affordable option. I think the manufacturers (Loop) need to somehow work on the aesthetics. It’s a good idea and I do hope it comes to fruition. Even in death some good can be done.

I did not read all your text but the first paragraph caught my attention. I wanted to let you know that in Muslim countries we do use old graves for new burials. I also wanted to add that islamic burial is indeed a green burial. There is no embalming and the body is put to rest after being washed and covered in a simple cotton shroud.
@@sarahhopeful6683 You should read the rest. There is not enough Burial space in Singapore, even for green Muslim burials. Burial is fine for extreme hot dry desert climates with plenty of land like Saudi Arabia. But for most Asian countries like Singapore which is prone to rain flooding and densely populated and running out of land space. Electric cremation is the fastest cleanest most logical option.
This is a great idea, but I think making it a bit more aesthetically pleasing will go a long way when competing with wicker and bamboo caskets and such which can be easily decorated with flowers and they look cuter in some ways. They're also already sold in several funeral homes. I think this has some solid potential though!
@Ptolemy 1 I love that idea! I’ve always been intrigued by the tree pod burial, but then I’ve wondered what happens if a person moves and their beloved tree is left behind. Owning a plot of land for the family is a wonderful solution, if someone can afford it.

The idea of becoming part of the earth and into the ecology is great. Hats-off to your initiative Sir. In India many bury the dead directly to soil. Its an age old practice done since thousands of years. The dead-body is just wrapped in cotton cloth and flowers and buried directly in soil. No boxes. So the decomposition happens fast and becomes part of the earth.
If the material ends up being styrofoam-like, could it theoretically be used to replace styrofoam as well? Because a biodegradable version of styrofoam would be insane to see in my lifetime.
I always figured I would have 2 options. 1.) Poor man's option: flash freeze my body and wood chipper me into the ocean to continue the circle of life/nutrition return. 2.) Rich man's option. Put me into a photon torpedo and shoot me towards a young star in hopes that my biological uniqueness may help grow a new world.

My dad has said since I was little that he just wanted to be buried in a plain pine box (and only that much so he could be in the family cemetery, which doesn't allow unboxed burials) so he could decompose as fast as possible. I'm hoping that by the time he does go, these will be available in the US.
according to their site, they should be available in the US in the next 3-6 months!
Why they couldn't allow unboxed burial?
@@mickolesmana5899 there are concerns about 1. wild animals digging the body up, 2. water contamination, 3. issues around sometimes the only way you can hold some one legally when there are suspicious circumstances around the death of an individual is by going with the laws around desecrating a corpse.
Like when a guy leaves his dead mom to sit and decay in her room in his house for months or even years, to the point no once figure out how she died....
It's actually the city that requires burial in "an approved manner" mostly because there were issues with people dying and not being buried. That's happening in parts of the world with Covid right now, families can't afford to cremate or bury their dead, and so they dump the body.
@@mwater_moon2865 what about religion that required a unboxed burial like Islam?
Man, imagine being one of those researchers. It sounds so quirky to be a compostable mushroom coffin inventor, but this is a beautiful and genius project! I love how eco-friendly (and more affordable) this is and I hope this business can continue to grow 🌱

The only reason why people might prefer the wooden one over loop is that it's fancy, so why not add natural color and other materials and design it to appeal to your customers.
This way it would be a win-win.
Love the idea though!!!
The modern wooden coffins are a privileged expense of money and it can contaminate the soil with its various components
The idea of the fungus coffin is to decay safely and in a environmental way the corpse of a person
Safe to say with natural colors, I’m sure we can get something brownish from Mother Nature?
As long as the colourings are natural
Maybe add moss to the outside as well. I think that would be visually more appealing.
Oh man I hope Ask A Mortician does a video on this ❤
Oh my God! I thought the same.
Send this to her!!!
Haha I was just thinking “I wonder if she has an email to send this to her” as I remembered watching her video on her wanting to be eaten by animals after death

Yessss ! That would be fantastic

It probably does stink though
I think the masks may be used even outside of pandemic conditions to prevent contamination of the growing fungi/culture samples

arcanesage how tho
@arcanesage but wouldn't they only be in there for a few hours
I don't know
@arcanesage I'm Preety sure your immune system will mostly fight it for a decent portion of time. Infact we have a lot of phisiological defenses against these types of things. Fungi still is very much works in the cellular level like how bacteria would. Infact it's this same biology that prevents insects from planting eggs in healthy skin or illnesses to not be able to penetrate through your body unless a cut is present.
But this is just view on a topic I barley have researched so probably is just better to google it.
It's still not easy. The hardest part of breaking out of a coffin isn't the coffin itself, but the 6 feet of soil on top of the coffin.
"Why are we not part of the cycle", so accurate. I can't understand people who say we need to save nature... we are nature.

It means that everything people do is technically natural

That is, to bury them without the presence of coffins. Straight let the bodies touch the earth.

@@memelyshorts643 tell your father to teach you real life skills and proper morals other than living a pathetic existence fueled by the approval of others.
You can accomplish virtually the same thing by building coffins out of plywood then lining them with a thin layer of mycelium panels for a fraction of the cost. It's okay to say that you're concerned about the Earth but to say that's your company's Main concern is nearsighted. You also have to focus on producing an affordable product, which is why these green companies rely on a political movement that advocates for their success legislatively. It's foul play.

Cremation: Tree Pot or Artificial Diamonds. (feed your family or be their accessories)
Vulture tower????

I’m all for saving the planet, even in death! Definitely think the mushroom/mycelium coffin is the way forward, but the rip off funeral industry will have a hissy fit at providing such an ecologically sound and affordable option. I think the manufacturers (Loop) need to somehow work on the aesthetics. It’s a good idea and I do hope it comes to fruition. Even in death some good can be done.

I did not read all your text but the first paragraph caught my attention. I wanted to let you know that in Muslim countries we do use old graves for new burials. I also wanted to add that islamic burial is indeed a green burial. There is no embalming and the body is put to rest after being washed and covered in a simple cotton shroud.
@@sarahhopeful6683 You should read the rest. There is not enough Burial space in Singapore, even for green Muslim burials. Burial is fine for extreme hot dry desert climates with plenty of land like Saudi Arabia. But for most Asian countries like Singapore which is prone to rain flooding and densely populated and running out of land space. Electric cremation is the fastest cleanest most logical option.

Hey, check out seconds 0:36-0:37 also. (Somebody just now mentioned this creepy figure to me)
Its lower by the ground behind trees. Take the closed cation subtitles off the screen to see this figure moving below.
@@musiqu4lyfe 😅🥶 😳 ..ohh..!!
Did anyone notice there was a Eco-friendly car (Tesla) carrying Eco-friendly coffin 🤯, 2:55
Imagine believing Tesla's are "Eco friendly" how's the kool-aid taste?
@@jamesbond1231 fr, those materials used to build the batteries are NOT eco friendly 😂
@@jamesbond1231 I guess then everyone should either go for a gas guzzling car or just straight up go the most environmentally friendly option...walking naked and barefoot? Like anything better that gas cars can never be addressed as environmentally friendly unless it has zero footprint?
@@jamesbond1231 whole lot more friendly then gas cars tho
@@fakedzarcasm7350 Not even remotely. But again - keep believing the propaganda being pushed on you. It's like believing that your government has your best interests in mind.
Beautiful. I love mycology, so it’s kind of my dream to be buried in one of these. Mushroom burial suits are cool too.
The idea of becoming part of the earth and into the ecology is great. Hats-off to your initiative Sir.
In India many bury the dead directly to soil. Its an age old practice done since thousands of years. The dead-body is just wrapped in cotton cloth and flowers and buried directly in soil. No boxes. So the decomposition happens fast and becomes part of the earth.
What an interesting solution. I really hope that people adopt this great idea
Eco friendly idea. 🍃🍁
If the material ends up being styrofoam-like, could it theoretically be used to replace styrofoam as well? Because a biodegradable version of styrofoam would be insane to see in my lifetime.
What was that tesla coffin transporter car???
The word you're looking for is hearse. And yes it was.
@@MrEazyE357 its an unofficial car, its a modified car. we have had that in norway since 2015
This is fantastic! I really love this. Many of us want to return our material body back to earth in a natural way. Thank you!
This is wonderful. Absolutely genius. The body should return to the dust from which it was made, that is the natural way.
Me at the eulogy: “he was always such a fun guy”
I never understood the point of coffin's. I'd much prefer an Islamic burial instead with my organs donated.
Yeah, just clean corpse and wrap with linen. Easy to decay, things would be easy if "fancy rich ritual" wasn't involved
This is fascinating. 😳❤️
I always figured I would have 2 options. 1.) Poor man's option: flash freeze my body and wood chipper me into the ocean to continue the circle of life/nutrition return. 2.) Rich man's option. Put me into a photon torpedo and shoot me towards a young star in hopes that my biological uniqueness may help grow a new world.
I always felt cremation was selfish, like if I died, instead of selling my house burn it to the ground and cover the lot in a toxic goo, as to make it uninhabitable. 🤷♂️
this is really cool! the bodies are essentially becoming apart of nature and living on in a different form😮I like it, everywhere should do this
Jimmy Hendrix : Music legend
Bob Hendrix : Ecological ⚰️ legend
Haha what a honor!
The idea is good, but bundling it into layers of secrecy in order to turn it into a business is petty.
It doesnt make even less toxic when i put those toxic people from internet into this coffin

What happens to the bones? This process helps breakdown that too?
