Modern Marvels - Cemeteries

Seizoen: 7 - Aflevering: 36 / 184 - Eerst uitgezonden: 30 oktober 2001 - Episode ID: 414497

More than 2-million people die in the U.S. each year. That works out to about 5,500 burials a day, with roughly 80 percent taking the long goodbye in a casket, and the remaining 20 percent electing to be cremated or finding some alternative method of crossing eternity's threshold. We take a look at dealing with the dead throughout the centuries, and at today's $20-billion funeral industry. Any way you look at it, it's a healthy business, with new generations of customers year after year!
