The way his literally looks the way I woud picture a mortician looking. his humility.

The only mortician I knew was a raging alcoholic. He worked in a small town, and had to bury a lot of locals he grew up with. More than he thought he would have to, around his age even. The guy was a complete wreck. This was about 10 years ago and I DOUBT he's still alive now. He was almost in his 40s, late 30s. I'm like 100% sure he ended his life. This guy makes it seem like it's no pressure or emotional toll, but if that's the case he's a sociopath which explains his detached "charisma"

Victor, if you see this, please know that you helped me get through a close friend's passing. He was young like me, and you never expect something like this to happen. During the viewing before the funeral, I noticed that his cheeks were pink and rosy, he didn't look caked in make-up and he simply looked asleep. I immediately thought about the things you mentioned about the red liquid and how it's used to bring color to faces. I also remembered how you talked about why morticians place the left hand over the right. All of those things were going through my head as I saw my good friend laying in the casket. And you know what? Knowing that he had received such good care because you detailed how bodies are to be handled and cared for brought some peace to my heart. Thank you, Victor. 🙏🏿

Came looking for these videos to say the same! My grandpa passed away after an excruciatingly long time in the hospital, he was only the ghost of himself by the time he was gone, and all of us while being somewhat relieved that he was finally out of his suffering (if you've ever witnessed a loved one in a constant state of pain, you know what I mean), we did not want to remember him like that, and at first we wanted a closed casket so that other people wouldn't see him, because it was simply not fair to him...the mortician however reassured us, and did such an amazing job at preparing him that when we saw him in the casket we almost couldn't breathe, he looked more alive there than in his last months, so peaceful and serene that I fe it was almost therapeutic to us. I remembered Victor's videos, and same as you I felt better thinking of the care that the mortician must have put into doing such a great job and felt more grateful for it.

Fun fact: rigor mortis is the result of your body no longer being able to control the amount of sodium in your muscles, which allows muscle contraction, and no longer producing ATP, which breaks the connection making the fibers contract. So you end up stuck in a contracted position until the proteins that make up your muscles start to denature (break down) themselves.

you get used to just turning off your brain when you are treating bodies that are heavily mutilated. or, by the way, those that pass too young.... those are way harder to deal with than someone who's body has been (partially) damaged. its better to just turn off your brain, and fix it, then once you are done, look with pride at being able to give the relatives a proper last goodbye. Oh, and a lot of morbid humor between colleagues helps aswel.

"Provided the rest of their head is there." This man has seen things.

There’s a rather local mortician who specialized in children’s funerals. When I talked to her she said she’ll ask the family the child’s fav show and then while prepping the body, she plays the show. Her belief is the soul sometimes watches their body, and she believe the fav show and comfort item being in the area helps the child’s soul. It’s actually really nice.

It’s almost stranger being a surgeon than a mortician, knowing the person is alive and could feel the pain if something goes wrong. Yikes

My sister passed away prior to my birth as well and I found my grandmother so I’ve seen a lot of death and been around , and have always been fascinated with it , but definitely because helping those who have lost is the biggest thing, because I know how that feels

So we probably have our fair share of undisturbed graves dating back literally 400 years. So if modern American zombies are all buried in sealed caskets with sealed jaws, our zombie apocalypse could just be the skeleton war.

If there's ever a movie that requires a small scene with a mortician, this guy should be a cameo as it. He's got great character, and he looks more like a mortician naturally than anything hollywood could ever make artificially.
