Where would you want to rest yourself after life? underground? in the air? or under the sea?
Well, just found out some creative guys at US has this - Neptune Memorial Reef
The Creators of the Neptune Memorial Reef hope it will become a memorial for the dead and a diving site. Instead of a burial funeral, people can pay to have their remains placed in one the reef's structures after their death. I thought this is something interesting....for those who love the sea, they will probably buy the idea....
So....where is the memorial reef? Given a chance, would you want to dive there? If yes, i definitely will :P
The Neptune Memorial Reef is located in open waters 3 1/4 miles off the coast of Key Biscayne - Miami, Florida (US) which means any certified diver can visit. The artificial reef's first phase allows for about 850 remains.
The ashes are mixed with cement designed for underwater use and fitted into a mold, which a diver then places and secures into the reef. A copper and bronze plaque is installed with the person's name, date of birth and death. There is also a line for a message.
The cost of a placement starts at $995 and can go to $6,495, for those who want to be placed inside the base of a lion statue for all eternity.
