唱片葬、煙花葬……無奇不有的遺體處理方式
如今土地資源稀缺，人死後已經沒有辦法“入土爲安”，最後都要燒成灰，與其花大錢埋進小墓地，不如製成有價值的工藝品永久保存。有些人選擇將骨灰製成鑽石、水晶球，還有人將骨灰製成黑膠唱片。當然也有想得開的人把骨灰製成了煙花。但是還有更另類的遺體處理方式，比如把骨灰從大炮射出去，讓別人當煙抽，或者將遺體制成木乃伊。一起來看看如今流行哪些遺體處理方式。
Forget about traditional burials or cremation the sky's literally the limit when it comes to what people are choosing to do with their remains after they die.
傳統的土葬和火葬都過時了，如今人們選擇的遺體處理方式可謂是無奇不有。
More and more people are requesting exotic options including being turned into fireworks, diamonds, snow globes and even vinyl records.
越來越多的人要求用奇特的方式來“安葬”自己，包括被製成煙花、鑽石、雪花水晶球甚至黑膠唱片。
According to View Legal director Matthew Burgess the requests for unconventional body disposal options are surging.
據View Legal公司總監馬修•伯吉斯透露，非傳統遺體處理的請求越來越多。
'There is a significant and growing interest in alternative disposal approaches,' Mr Burgess told .
伯吉斯告訴網站說：“人們對另類安葬方式的興趣明顯增多。”
The new trends are relating to big bucks for a number of businesses who specialise in the 'body disposal' business.
這些新潮流給專業做“遺體處理”的多家企業帶來了財運。

Another method becoming more popular is cryonic freezing which was made famous in 1967 when Dr. James Bedford, a psych professor at the University of California became the first person to ever be cryonically preserved.
另外一個越來越流行的遺體處理方法是人體冷凍。1967年加利福尼亞大學心理學教授詹姆斯•貝德福德成爲人體冷凍第一人，人體冷凍也自此聞名於世。
The estimated cost for people to become frozen will be an estimated $90,000 per person.
冷凍人體的花費估計爲每人9萬美元。
Mr Burgess said there are up to five requests a year for people to be turned into snow globes post-death. Vinyl records are a popular request among departing baby boomers.
伯吉斯稱，每年會接到至少5個將遺體制成雪花水晶球的訂單。遺體制成黑膠唱片在老去的嬰兒潮一代人當中也很受歡迎。
