It is insane to expect anyone cherishing his own death. And now this insanity can soon to be seen as a wishful reality as a company called Creative Coffins, known for developing customized coffins has an exclusive deliverable for geeks. Well, with the launch of iPhone 3G lately and its fever still on what is your choice of an eternal slumber? Say iPhone Coffin and the company have that for you. So, do you like to ride in a Vista wallpaper-themed or Halo coffin? These coffins aren’t “legitimately” listed as “goods” from the Creative Coffins squad but am sure there won’t be any questions for thrashing up the design for you, as they guarantee any form of design starting from “the decorous and gorgeous to the idiosyncratic or hilarious”. T3 has put collectively some breathtaking design renditions of coffins that may relax your exhausted imagination and you can come up with the demand of a Star War-themed coffin. And if green is your choice then free feel to eye ecopod coffins.

With such wide eyes, you must be wondering if such giant beer-bottle or one shaped like coke would ever be useful. Ask Ghana nationalities and they will tell you the relevance of such branded products. Seemingly bottles, these are apparently very purposeful as they serve as coffins to celebrate one’s death ceremony.
It is no prank as Delicious Ghost points to this Ghanaweb writeup: For Ga tribe, the moment of funeral is a blissful period of mourning along with celebration. They believe death is a stage that takes a human being to a new phase of life and thus his farewell should be performed in an elite manner. And what could be more valuable than honoring their dead with intensely tinted coffins that commemorate the way they lived. Other branded examples can be counted as giant Coke bottle, an Air Jordan coffin or even cigarette coffins.
Also, artists and carpenters have mixed feelings for this product with a different reason. They cherish the fact that the designer coffins are being used here as a home for their after life but also grieves that all their efforts invested in making the unique coffin gets buried with the burial of the dead body.
