Victor M. Sweeney, a licensed funeral director and mortician, breaks down clips from movies and TV about dead bodies, funerals, and embalming, and explains how accurate they really are. Is the dead body from “Psycho” realistic? Could Donny’s ashes from “The Big Lebowski” really be stored in a coffee can? Is there such a thing as a glass casket?

    I wish he reacted to Death Becomes Her and how the mortician uses spray paint

    It helps that he’s fine af, I’d let him set my features, if you catch my drift 😉

    My roommate and I are both in the industry and got a huge kick out of Bernie. Obviously a few things here and there were overly dramatic for entertainment purposes, but they had great accuracy in a lot of the details.

    As always, thanks for the awesome breakdowns!

    It’s typical not to be buried in socks or shoes??

    Can I demand to be buried in 8 inch heels?

  28. TheMaidofMiddleEarth

    Glad to see that everyone’s favourite Mortician 💀⚰️🥀 is back! I also imagine Rick Moranis playing him in a film.

    You guys are obligated to keep hiring Victor Sweeney. Such an immaculate professional, and the spitting image of the stereotypical mortician.

  37. Matt Wilson

    December 4, 2021 at 1:16 am

  42. Taylor

  57. Allison Snow

    December 5, 2021 at 12:33 am

    As a Medical Professional, I have to say this guy is awesome, and I learned a lot. Having been the person to handle my Mom’s remains, funeral, etc. I have to say this was pretty accurate. Morticians are cool. Thanks for your service 🙏

  59. gemini star

    December 5, 2021 at 12:35 am

    Would be interesting for him to review non-westernize funeral-movie scene. Such as the Japanese movie “Departures”. And other cultural practices.

    Nothing better than a real expert explaining what really happens…
    Too much tribal knowledge that ends up being rumors.

  64. Unreasonably Random

    December 5, 2021 at 12:45 am

    Me to this guy: Ah yes, my favorite mortician
    My brother who’s training to be a mortician: 🥲

    December 5, 2021 at 12:46 am

    My guy is back, and I’m now certified to do cremations! Although I have to wait for a job opportunity to come along lol.

  66. Cody

    December 5, 2021 at 12:46 am

    I’ve watched every Wired video with Victor in it, I saw the thumbnail and instantly clicked on this one. Seems like such a genuine guy who is passionate about his career.

  67. East Meets West Presents

    December 5, 2021 at 12:57 am

    Wait, didn’t the Little Miss Sunshine corpse steal get covered in an earlier video?

  68. Meow Holly Meow

    December 5, 2021 at 12:58 am

    My dads ashes were given back in 3 plain plastic black boxes (as he showed, also it was our choice, he wanted to be scattered not kept and no money wasted). I thought about the big lebowski when they offered me urns.

  69. Skeebop Bop

    December 5, 2021 at 1:02 am

    Im glad that the corpse of Anna Fritz is not one of these

  70. Esdayarg

    If there is ever a part 2, a couple scenes I would like to see analyzed are the scene in Grey’s Anatomy where a doctor, who’s Jewish, was preparing his relative’s body for a Jewish burial, and Yondu’s funeral scene in Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

    Yay!! Victor’s back!! As a professional makeup artist & esthetician I really appreciate how he speaks about makeup+artistry! 💫✨
    Also…THANK YOU for talking about the PPE! When I saw that dude w/o a mask or shield it made me feel slightly freaked out haha.

    Medical student here- not only have I been fascinated with every form of medical science possible and therefore a ton of wired vids, but Victor explains it in such an understandable way (including those with no science background)! Not to mention he’s a cutie…. AKA we Stan

  89. Lorelai Mercy

    December 6, 2021 at 1:15 am

    He could have an entire channel and I would subscribe 💯 Excited you brought him back, hope to see more. So glad you did the Big L reference, love that one.

    December 6, 2021 at 1:27 am

    My Girl is the one movie I couldn’t watch on my own, especially by myself. I watched it when I was young, and every time I did I was sullen for a week.

    I once saw an epitaph that just said ‘Hated By All’ right at the top of his headstone
    Oh yeah, and it also said ‘Rejected’ on top of that.
    And there was just either his death date or birth date, I’m not too sure, but it was definitely crazy to see that.

    16:20 about this actually my step grandpa died at the beginning of 2021 and they knew they couldn’t have a funeral and they had him cremated and when they went to pick up his ashes THEY GAVE THEM THE WRONG PERSON how they figured it out was because the front had the name on it

    December 7, 2021 at 1:09 am

    Who tf is saying that morticians are greedy or vultures? The job is hard enough that you need to deal with a dead body and do all that craziness that we just saw but to go back to your normal life after you clock out is crazy to me. Papa bless them

    It is endlessly weird to me that Americans embalm people.
    So unnecessary, costly, and honestly a bit unhealthy – emotionally speaking.

    2 of the 4 funeral directors that I assist wear almost exactly what the mortician in Kissed is wearing. Thankfully they have never called the trocar the “embalmer’s sword” *vomit*

    As a funeral director, I agree with almost everything that is being said. I have also never tried to get a family to buy an expensive urn. That being said I have only worn a face mask in school. Also, I talk to the dead, usually asking them to be nice so I can make them look pretty for their family members.

    I definitely give my respect to morticians and funeral homes. My nephew passed away in October at three months old (he was very sick) and the woman who took care of his cremation was very kind. It must be heart wrenching to have a baby or child come in. My many thanks to the people who do this.

    I’ve only been to 2 funerals and they were for both grannies. The most recent one was like a month ago though. As grandkids, we all wore a purple flower during the funeral because it was our granny’s favourite colour then at the graveside, we all placed them in the grave after the casket was lowered. We’re a family raised on dark humour so jokes were exchanged through the service but there were still many tears. Especially when one cousin that couldn’t come recorded himself reading a poem he wrote. The poem was filled with inside jokes and got a couple laughs then he destroyed us all with the last line and everyone around me burst out crying.

    But with my Dad there was an officer there that offered to help , but i didnt mind.

    As a Paramedic, I deal with dead people often. In my job it does not bother me. But when in school to be one, we had cadaver labs where we had to practice (over and over again) intubation, interossious needle insertion, crichothyrotomy, lung needle decompression.

    While very instructive and educational, I hated every minute of it. I’m impresses and glad there are people like him who can do it what he does every day

    Abou the wrong dead body…. I live in Brazil and not so long ago we saw on TV a woman who was buried by another family because the hospital mixed up the corpses, so when the family received they realized that was not their relative, but the other family made the funeral with the casket closed so they didn’t notice and the corpse was buried. It was really a huge problem to solve. The families needed a court authorization to exchange the bodies.

    I would have liked him to state in his conclusion that embalming is not legally required is most deaths. That is the one point that I do think funeral homes make money with an unnecessary procedure.

    I have never understand morticisns. Bless them for their profession, but I can’t help but wonder why they are so comfortable dealing with dead bodies.

    Corpses in coffins never look real in movies. They are supposed to look like straight mannequin in real life; sorta like a uncanny it used to be someone I cared about type of feeling but its not really them. And they get very skinny and much smaller too.

    Victor and Ask a Mortician really need to collab because both talk about the subject of death and dead bodies in such a unique and educucational way.

    I personally feel the funerary industry is hugely unneeded . I told my family that I want a natural burial so no embalming and no vault , no casket and buried in a cheap shroud . I would prefer being buried on family land . I want the money I am saving currently to pay for a party 2 weeks after my passing so that people get the proper chance to arrange for days off .I have told anyone that has ears that I do not want a bells and whistles , typical funeral

    One of my friends manages several cemeteries, but he’s also a trained mortician and funeral director. But sometimes he misses the artistry of making a person look their best. He was very good too. My grandma had a cardiac event and fell on her face and had significant bruising. (She went quickly.) He was able to cover up almost all except the darkest bruising, but still made her look natural. It was very comforting.

    I love My Girl, one of my favorite movies. It makes me feel so good to hear Victor’s empathy towards Thomas Jay and his confirmation that it is like the saddest scene ever.

  317. Vendura

    And there I go completely rendom discovering this video. Awesome! I absolutely never put much thought in the job of morticians….but after losing up until now one of my brothers, my Dad and his Mum, my grandma, I am really really thankful that they do this job. I could not say goodbye to my little brother because leukemia took him in two days when I was at school. But the mortician of the town where I lived prepared my brother after his autopsy in a way my other brother and I could at least somehow bid him farewell while seeing him as if he was still there.
    Sounds weird but this helped A LOT.

    Like the guy under me said, he’s legit perfect. His name is VICTOR SWEENY???
