A lot of the deathcare industry is a scam. Most people don't need embalming but many mortician insist that you must. They'll guilt you into buying the most expensive casket "don't you care about your grandma? She's going to be in there a long time" Most caskets rot to nothing in a few years. The only time a armour plated reinforced coffin with drainage holes is needed is when you plan to dig them back up (seriously I've seen first hand what happens when a casket suffers a catastrophic structural failure while doing that... a coworker got covered in cadaver soup.

It is not so much the coffin - not in most cases, anyway (the whole platinum/other-rare-metal coffin with extra "amenities" is absolutely a scam) - than it is the person selling it. Funeral homes are trained to exploit the grief of the loved ones in order to upsell, so as a result, they dislike those who plan things out _well_ in advance of the actual event, and these particular people tend to be who is going to be in the coffin. In other words, if you really want to avoid a scam, plan it out well in advance, and find as many loved ones as you can (never settle for just one person) who will stick to it.

For its normal intended purpose, there's no real need for a casket to protect its occupant, but keeping the weight manageable would be more of a consideration. When I first saw this episode I was incredulous that they seemed to have completely omitted any kind of testing or even theoretical calculations to check if the casket would be likely to withstand the weight of the earth on top of it. This was some years after magician "Amazing" Joe Burrus died when the transparent coffin from which he was attempting to escape collapsed under the weight of earth and wet cement on top. Burying Jamie without thorough prior testing seems reckless, but perhaps he wanted it that way to make the experiment more accurate by inducing real fear. He still remained remarkably calm under the circumstances - even his elevated pulse, at 115, is rather lower than I'd expect.

This episode is the legendary, Who was to blame for "Buster's" losing his leg?, Adam or Jamie?

It's not the surface tension. Water is very dense, It's the inertia.

lol I wonder if Jamie saying “I’m thinking about sex a lot” when he’s in the coffin is a KoRn reference to their ADIDAS music video ?

A rare occurrence but it's no folklore. it has been documented in many places, even well into the 20th century, of people being buried alive. It was less likely in places where bodies were embalmed but not all communities had access to such services.

This is the exact reason that caskets are put into concrete vaults during burial. You just don't see the vault because the cemetery workers cover it up with material. Caskets aren't really very strong.
