This novelty coffin would certainly be a great way to add a little humor to one's funeral, and funerals are definitely a location where this is needed.
The casket mimics a crime scene chalk outline as it possesses the similar sharp-lined and box-like appearance. What makes this coffin really special is that it actually contains handles on the side for the pallbearers. Although, the casket takes no other consideration for the poor pallbearers as it would be an awkward lift. It might also prove difficult for the undertaker to fit the casket in the grave. Not to mention, it may not fit properly in the hearse. Maybe all of these inconveniences only make this novelty coffin even funnier as the deceased gets the last laugh.
