This is just 4chan extended

Perhaps for relatives who are unable to attend?

Yooooooooo it's ya boy ClemDeLaCrem back again today we're doing a no-thermite Urn% speedrun, tryin' to get that sub-ten minute mark. Were using Song 2 for all three music slots and were going to try and take advantage of an exploit that allows the music to play during the sermon. Also we're limiting the deceased daughter's poetry choice to limericks. Let's gooooooo.

we did a few years ago because my mother's family is spread throughout latin america and they couldn't afford to be there to say goodbye her.

unfortunately for us, she had a bubbly personality that led her to being well liked by everyone she met so we were also not in a position to afford that many guests either.

I've heard of this done. I've never watched the stream, but I've heard of it being done. Like the other person said, it's for those who can't be there.

My wife and I actually live-streamed our wedding, but it was before smartphones, so what we did was, we both had our phones call out to different places, and they put us on speakerphone. We didn't have them on speaker, so if anyone said anything, it didn't interrupt the ceremony. But they got to hear us and everything that was said. I don't recall who my wife called, but I called my mother, who couldn't make it. I know she said they had like 25-30 people over just crowding around the phone listening.

But yeah, funeral sad so why do the same? Again, I've only heard of the practice, never joined one live. It sounds weird but some people need that closure, and it sounds insensitive to do it remotely, but if that's all they got, apparently it's enough for some people. As a tech guy, I'd be honoured to assist in setting something like that up for someone. Only, I don't do social media, so I'd need them to set up the Twitch/whatever account, and then I should be able to handle things from there (run cameras, moderate comments, etc.). Also DJ the event if they want live music (some do, some don't — some people will just put on a playlist).

We did this. They're isn't commentary or anything, just a camera at the back of the hall so that remote family can still "attend".

Its like the male coded equivalent of the mean nurse who never grew out of high school

Its a greentext. Their imagination was always doing most of the work.

I think you just figured out how kinks work.

The camera could be pretty static in between pews, with a focus on the coffin. When people walk up to say their goodbyes, their feet may be in more or less focus

It's being live-streaming so it's family in Latin America can participate on it

Like the other commentator said, if you’re on the other side of the world, old, infirm etc it gets you to the funeral. A lot of people, religious and otherwise, take a degree of comfort seeing the final journey be made by their friend, loved one or family, that all humans eventually take.

Reminds me of when my Nana died. People who I have never seen before in my entire life all came out of the woodwork to gawk and take pictures of her corpse. I was beyond pissed off and my biggest regret is not slapping those camera out of their hands because I didn't want to cause a scene at a funeral. I wanted to say to them, "who the fuck are you and how dare you disrespect my grandmother like that!? I was there for her my entire life, where the fuck where you?"

My mom told me it was a catholic thing to take pictures of the dead, but I don't give a shit about their shitty religion, especially if it encourages people to do selfish shit like this. If I could have done it all over again I would have definitely spoken up, but alas this was 14 years ago and I'll never see those people again...whoever the fuck they were...

Some people have friends all over the world that cant make the journey.

Recently had this for a family funeral, 40/50 people from South Africa asked if it could be live-streamed. The immediate family didnt like the idea, but i can appreciate why they asked.
