• As a last request he asks to be buried with his truck.
• Family fulfills his wish and it goes viral.

A Mexican song says that when we die we are not going to take anything with us, ‘just a fist of earth’, however, a man from Baja California, Mexico decided to ignore that phrase and asked as a last request that they bury him in his grave with the truck that his son gave him, according to a post made on the news site Regeneracion.

Recently many videos have been seen of the way in which relatives bury their beloved ones. Some women dance on top of the coffin, others carry the coffins to soccer fields to say goodbye to the sport they loved so much. Others play music, drink beer and party. But what Adán Arana asked for was different from everything else.

WHY DID HE MAKE THAT LAST REQUEST?

The man was well known in the fishing area of ​​Puerto San Carlos, Baja California Sur. Unfortunately he got sick a long time ago, so his work decreased and he had to remain in bed and try to recover. The cause of his death has not been released, but what is known is that before he fell ill, his son gave him a dark-colored pick-up truck.

Feeling bad and seeing that his illness was incurable, it occurred to him to ask what would be his last request. He reunited his family and asked them to bury him in his grave with his truck.

WHY DID HE LOVE THE TRUCK SO MUCH?

According to information from Televisa News this unusual burial took place in the pantheon of Puerto San Carlos, a community located in the municipality of Comondú. The truck was a 2005 model and one of his sons gave it to him so that he could carry out all his activities in a more comfortable way.

After his death, the family discussed Don Adan’s last request and came to the conclusion that they would respect it. Without hesitation they organized everything for the burial including expanding the area of ​​the tomb. It was intended just for the coffin, so they got to work and had a grave the size of the truck dug.

WHAT DID THE FAMILY DO TO FULFILL HIS LAST REQUEST?

The family decided to build a four-walled tomb with block cement in order to protect the truck and the remains of Don Adán. Traditionally to bury a person inside a coffin, a space of little more than two meters in length and a little less than a meter in height is required and it is buried with earth where flower arrangements are placed.

The family had to defy tradition and made it more than 5 meters long and 3 meters wide so that the truck could fit. They also had to organize everything to have permits from the pantheon so that it did not represent a risk for visitors and the other tombs. Filed Under: Pickup Truck Man Bury

WHAT DO PEOPLE THINK?

The family also had to plan how to place the truck in the modified grave, for which they used a crane to lift it. All this caught the attention not only of the locals, but of social media. The photographs went viral when it was learned that a truck would be inside a grave.

Many people have criticized the event, but others applaud that the family respects the last request of their loved one. The truth is that every day there are new different, strange, extravagant and incredible ways to dismiss the dead and this was one of them and many still don’t believe it. Would you do something like that or ask to be buried with some object that you lved so much?

WHY DID SOME AGREE?

On the Facebook page of El Organismo some people expressed their opinion about the incredible event. “It seems that we have not learned anything from the real Day of the Dead.» «May the Don and his family rest in peace as well, since they are the ones who are suffering.”

And the viewer also gave advice to the other Internet viewers who criticized this request. “Avoid types of comments that only reveal your lack of culture and empathy for the pain of others and start doing something useful like the son who gifted the car that he loved so much.» Filed Under: Pickup Truck Man Bury

WHY DID SOME PEOPLE GET ANGRY?

Other people commented: «God bless him», «a real pharaoh», «they buried it with him, but you can’t take anything with you». «You leave the world as you came, naked, with nothing and crying», «this is bullshit.»
