Mausoleum Burials Are A Terrible Idea

Huge Mausoleum With A Dark Secret Inside
#cemetery #mausoleum #coffin

[@CarapaceClavicle]

I used to work as a caretaker for a group of old cemeteries around my city. On my first day the older caretaker took me to see inside of one of the large mausoleums. As soon as we opened the door I was hit with a weird smell. The upper floor looked like a pretty standard, clean, mausoleum, but when we went down the stairs to the lower level we noticed that it was flooded with a few feet of dark water and you could see a water line above the first row of coffins, a few feet higher where the flood receded from. It was pretty gross.

[@marydegenkolb9603]

I count 3 burials and based on the age of the crypt, the coffins have dissolved and the lead inner coffin has melted and exposed the bones. Bones are harder than the lead so they remain intact. The heat that those tombs can hold in summers and warm days melt the soft lead. So that is why most wooden coffins are gone in 100 years and the lead starts to sag and deform.

[@CM-qe3vp]

I was literally just wondering if the just plonked the bodies in the mausoleums. Thanks for the info!

[@rj4590]

Pure lead requires at least about 620 degrees F to melt,not ever going to get that hot.

[@Rexag]

We get hot here... and in Houston it's hot and humid...summer days 105F or hotter in July thru August. 41C with humidity 95% that makes it very sauna like...We have mausoleums but I can't imagine going to a cemetery and it smelling like dead bodies. The doors on them are solid and wouldn't the gases have to get out? I know that hurricanes and the flooding will cause coffins to pop up and float and sometimes the lids open. So, many don't want to be buried in the ground but It's all gross in the aftermath.

[@anthonylangley8717]

The blue sky, white clouds, and lush green grass make a beautiful scene. Those empty crypts make me wonder what happened and why they weren’t used. My great-grandfather bought family burial plots, but he and his wife are the only ones in it. For various reasons, his children weren’t buried there. Even though I have a legal claim to a plot in it, the law says I would first have to find all of his living descendants and have them sign paperwork agreeing that I can be buried there. That means finding second and third cousins, several times removed, and our family genealogy records are not very thorough, so the plots will just go unused. I have no doubt that there are family members who are entitled to be buried there, and have no idea the place exists. People move away. Family history isn’t passed down. Maybe that’s what happened with the mausoleum in this video.

[@GraveVisitations]

Yes it sounds like alot of research and detective work but it would be nice to be interred with your family Anthony. All these big mausoleums go to waste sadly. Thank you for watching 🙏🇮🇪

Well, my brother hasn't talked to the family in twenty years and he is rich working for Lockheed Martin designing electrical systems for airplanes and I guess missiles and whatever else weapons of war they make. So there's one plot that isn't going to be used. Sadly, my father will probably be going there soon. He's not doing well and his sister is actively dying in hospice.

[@randywatts6969]

“Come hither, poor sinner, look and see, of shortly what must become of thee!”☠️

[@terramarini6880]

Some families ran a weird routine in mausoleums. Some did in fact lay the body out on a platform or in an open or unsealed casket to hurry the process and moved the bones on to a niche or mini casket in order to lay out the next decedent. So it's possible those three caskets held more than one body, the loose bones may have been dragged out on the floor by rodents in search of calcium or grave robbers. Sometimes "residents" are disinterred for reburial elsewhere and it may be the family line died out suddenly and only four were ever in there and no one left to tend the site. I have so many questions when I see bodies in such a disrespectful state.

My family has been in the funeral industry for over 70 yrs. Having said that, above ground burials can have its challenges because temps change cold/hot. Caskets have a rubber seal & if they are "sealed" and interred in a mausoleum think pressure cooker. Lots of things to think about if your final resting place is a mausoleum.

[@lynnkiser7728]

@@ravendixon1099 And when you’re put in the ground you not only have to pay for someone to dig a hole, but you have to additionally pay for a ‘vault’ which does absolutely nothing. Come back in a few years and the casket is floating and your loved one is a blob

[@ravendixon1099]

@@lynnkiser7728 Somewhat true. Ppl spend massive dollars for a casket when they should be spending it on the vault. The body doesn't turn into a "blob" because of water but instead from the bacteria inside the body. Decomposition can be delayed if the embalmer does an exceptional job. About 60% of the population is opting for cremation. Lavish funerals are what our elders wanted..not so much now. As for opening a grave, most operators are in a union which cemeteries in larger cities must employ hence the cost is higher.

The barrel vault mausoleum contents look like natural decomposition of wooden coffins has taken place spilling the ontents. Lead coffins are a bit later coming, so reflect in the other mosoleim. As in many of the other ones you looked at . it looks like someone was opening the sardine cans looking for valuables. The newer one looks like a later victorian model. I know the internal vaults are concrete. These vaults probably haven't had maintenance for a hundred years. However they give you a picture of how burial practices changed over time.

[@GraveVisitations]

Fascinating stuff John

[@DanaTheInsane]

There are lead coffins that are 1000 years old

[@inkey2]

About 20 years ago The City Of Boston was sending inspectors to check the safety of the brick, underground mausoleum vaults "ceilings" that were built in the late 1600s and up to the late 1700s. I happened to be a witness to these inspections. One needs to be very careful when walking in these old cemeteries especially on high grassy mounds because there is usually a vault underneath, If the ceiling ever gave in you'd be down there for a long time if not forever unless you were with someone. I got to witness and photograph the opening of one of these vaults. The doors had been bricked over years ago to prevent break-ins etc. Upon them prying back all the bricks there was a rock set of stairs going down to about a 15 square foot area. Apparently when a family was running out of room they started stacking the coffins on top of each other and over time the coffins just caved in on each other, It was a mess down there. dark bones scattered etc.

Here, in the U.S.A, we would NOT call that "barrel-shaped," but "Quonset Hut-shaped." A Quonset hut is basically a corrugated steel cylinder that is placed on its side and partially buried in the earth. This was invented for the military, who needed portable buildings that could be assembled by unskilled labor. We still use the design a lot at military facilities, distribution centers and airports. And, if you want to see a TRULY H U G E mausoleum, come to my town, Des Plaines, Illinois, U.S.A, just outside of Chicago. ALL SAINTS CEMETERY here, has the largest community mausoleum that I have seen in my entire life! The exterior is completely white. Inside the THREE FLOORS are filled with countless crypts that go from floor to ceiling, carpeted floors, sofas, restrooms, stained glass, statues and chapels. I have witnessed the disturbing aftermath of one strange phenomenon. Modern caskets are often fitted with perimeter seals, much like the seal on a refrigerator door. This creates an environment inside, that is conducive to "anerobic bacteria." As the bacteria digest the bodily tissues, they excrete methane and carbon dioxide gas. This gas pressurizes the interior of the casket, until the seal blows out. Often, along with the gases, the liquified remains of the corpse inside are expelled. More than once, I have seen this reddish/brown "goo" dripping down the front of a crypt! 🤮 My parents are buried outside in the cemetery here. When I am visiting their graves, if it begins to rain, I always take shelter in this magnificent mausoleum. 😊

I used to work at Paramount Pictures in Hollywood and my grandparents buried there. I went to see their graves and walked thru the cemetery. I saw one mausoleum where the door had been freshly opened. A worker there asked me if I wanted to look in. Inside were two closed crypts and one that was being prepared for a third coffin. On the left side of the mausoleum was the coffin of Marian Davies, an actress during the Golden Days of Hollywood. In the middle was the coffin of William Randolph Hearst, Marian Davies’ sugar daddy who invested heavily and blatantly in her “stardom.” The cemetery was preparing to inter Hearst’s cuckolded wife on his right side. If I were her, I’d rather been buried in a pauper’s grave than be disrespected by my cheating husband for eternity.

Hi GV Steve from England. Fantastic video from the very beginning. The moreseliume is huge. Those poor souls of the girls and boys passed so young . Definitely bones on the floor near the Coffins. Exceptional video

The dead need to get their house in order😂

It looks like a Quonset hut. It would make sense to have some kind of modular mausoleums.

Impressive.

There were two places I loved as a boy. The dump and the cemetery. I promised myself when I was an adult I'd live in one or the other.

I am puzzled about the pieces of bones and concrete mixed like that 🤷‍♀ those old coffins always fascinate me it was a big mausoleum for sure. Thank you GV 👏👏👏👏

[@GraveVisitations]

Strange to see the bones on the ground and coffins so high 🤔

The Ireland country landscape is so beautiful and the cemeteries are beautiful as well.

You should check out kilmun grave yard and church. I believe that’s where my family originated. Be cool to see a closer look. And I can’t do it myself as I’m on the west coast of the U.S.
