Why be buried in the same casket that everyone else in your plot will eternally reside in, when Crazy Coffins can design you a personalized creation sure to make you an underground smash-hit?
The company usually showcases its wacky designs in galleries or exhibitions for the living to enjoy, but some of the caskets have actually become the spot that several buyers have chosen to forever RIP within.
A few examples of the designs that have rolled out of the crypt-makers workshop thus far include a cell phone, a skateboard, a wildly painted viking boat and a guitar. For someone who enjoys a look more closely resembling a body bag, there is a stylish gym bag option.
While the majority of the items are for display only, one can request their own custom coffin for a starting cost of $10,000.
