Oh my, is there really such manners to die?

I'll be talking a little bit about different death rituals. Primely I'll be talking about three: Tibetan, Sati, Famadihana .
The tibetian death ritual is called sky burial and consists in people cutting of your body in strategic dimensions so later on  you could be feed to a vulture.  


The Sati ritual is if you are a women, and your husband dies, you burned yourself so you could die along with your husband. 

The Famahana ritual that beliefs that a human's soul doen't leave the body until the body is decomposed. Therefore, each year the family of the dead person reunites where the body is sepulture and wraps the body in silk clothing and starts partying with it.
