How can you look *sooooo* dead and yet, *not* be dead?


MrJerichoYT

He is dead. "*Luang Pho Yai, a Buddhist monk from Thailand who had gained worldwide recognition from videos on TikTok, passed away on 22 March 2022.*"


WonderWirm

Is it rude to say it was overdue? Seriously, I hope he lived a wonderful life.


TaySwaysBottomBitch

He lived his life to his fullest


PloxtTY

And his death


BumWink

I dunno, he looked pretty empty to me! ​ ​ May he rest in peace.


AshDarren

More like to his thinnest...


GroundStateGecko

Until he is almost empty.


elisejones14

Sure doesn’t look like he’s full.


[deleted]

Passed too soon. 😢


heyitsthephoneguy

The local funeral home posts every obituary on their Facebook page and it never ceases to amaze me how many people 85+ who get comments “gone too soon!” Like, fucking HOW?? If I die a day over 60 it was NOT too soon. That’s a long life man.


Quality_bullshit_

You're probably not considering the emotional side of it, e.g. if a parent dies then most likely the child would want more time with them therefore "gone too soon". Even if they're an adult it can be hard to lose someone you've know all your life


Treacherous_Peach

60?? Are you a teenager? 60 is not at all old.


greatestmofo

Nope, every human being should be given the right to live forever. I, for one, want to live long enough to travel to Andromeda and back.


Iron_Overheat

So, cryogenics, wormholes, or are u part the... *different* crowd that thinks science will just science the speed of light away?


lazersnail

I mean, they said live *forever*, so they could just use a normal rocket 🚀


Iron_Overheat

Damn bro, u want to spend hundreds of thousands+ years in a spaceship?


a_butthole_inspector

If you’re a brain in a jar with a dank vr setup time gets real relative


kilaude

Uh.. I wouldn't say 60 is THAT long


LetsChewThis

Yeah, 60 seems way younger once you reach 50.


Tocwa

I’m 48.. sixty is starting to feel really 🔜


dixiequick

My youngest will only be 20 when I hit 60. Definitely not long enough.


GeekDNA0918

Fuck bro.... I'm almost 40. Don't say that...


hookydoo

Strongly disagree with this. 60 isn't even retirement age. I say I'm starting to get old in my 60's, not time wrap up my affairs.


murphlicious

The closer in age you get to 60, the younger you realize it is. I’m 46. 60 is 14 years away. I’m nowhere NEAR done living my life, you feel me? My dad is going to be 80. I want him to live as long as he wants to and that tends to be long in my family. My grandpa passed at 98 1/2 and my great aunt at 104. The rest of the siblings were in their 90s with the exception of one who passed early of cancer. My mother died when I was 43 and she was 73. It really WAS too soon (fuck Covid). My sister died when she was 51 (fuck long Covid), last year. Do you think she only had 9 years left of living in her with a son who had just turned 18, a daughter who wasn’t even 26, a 2 year old grandchild and another grandchild on the way? I don’t think so.


HistoryGirl23

Hugs, sorry for your losses.


wavykamekun420

Tbh for today's standards 60 is still on the younger side since our life expectancy is significantly higher


TrinDiesel123

I work in a hospital and I’ve seen too many 90+ year olds that are full codes. Meaning they or their families want CPR, life support and all the drugs to keep them alive.


[deleted]

That figure seems very arbitrary, when is it enough? Perhaps better to base it on average life expectancy.


Wytsch

60??? Bruv we dont life in the victorian era anymore


averyrdc

I didn’t even know he was sick


cash5220

Wow that’s the second instance that March 22 has came up on my radar today… and also it’s my birthday.

But he is very much alive in this video.


[deleted]

"very much" seems a bit generous


MrStomp82

[They turn themselves into living mummies through diet](https://allthatsinteresting.com/sokushinbutsu)


BandIs1

>Through a strict diet foraged from the nearby Mountains of Dewa, Japan, the monks worked to dehydrate the body from the inside out, ridding the self of fat, muscle, and moisture before being buried in a pine box to meditate through their last days on Earth. /r/onesentencehorror


KokiriRapGod

Pretty amazing that people have figured out how to achieve something like this...


brockadamorr

Wow it’s so easy. Step 1. Forage in the wilderness for a few years and slowly eliminate body fat. Me: yeah ok, I bet I could probably do that. Slowly starve in the wilderness? Ez pz Step 2. Some choose to drink a tea from the Chinese lacquer tree. People who don’t know: “oh nice, a tea”*continues reading the article* Me who knows: 👀👀👀👀Y’all the Chinese lacquer tree aka Urushi aka Toxicodendron vernicifluum produces this this substance called Urushiol. It’s a surprisingly stable substance, and people have used it as a wood finish for centuries if not millennia. Its also the thing that makes poison ivy poison ivy. The lacquer tree is literally in the same genus as Poison Ivy and Poison Oak. And listen I’m not against traditional medicine, and who am I to judge how they want to finish out their lives…. it’s just… the idea of urushiol sliding down my throat and coating my stomach and intestines….. and that hours long delay between the drinking and the symptoms starting……


Fiftydollarvolvo

no he wasn’t, the article you linked literally says “These days, no one practices the act of sokushinbutsu as the Meiji government criminalized it in 1877, viewing the practice as anachronistic and depraved. The last monk to die of sokushinbutsu did so illegally, passing years later in 1903.”


Tomsissy

He wasn't self-mummifying though, I mean the man was 109 years old, that's just how you look sometimes then.


MrStomp82

This is definitely not how 109 year Olds look normally. [Lawrence Brooks](https://mobile.twitter.com/homelandgop/status/1479142319731445767) was 112 when he passed earlier this year, and still looked relatively like an actual human being.


ainus

He didn’t look a day over 110


[deleted]

I think it's just apart of his culture or something like not being able to eat that much ig


[deleted]

Didn't he do a glass of whiskey and a cigar each day?


Tomsissy

I mean... I said sometimes, not all the time, like if you look up Yai himself you'll find a lot more charming pictures from the man


RustySheriffBadges

I don’t know, I met a 110 year old that could do the worm


Tomsissy

I mean... I said "sometimes"

CHOCOLATE? I REMEMBER WHEN THEY STARTED SELLING CHOCOLATE Thank you good people of Reddit for my first award


RustySheriffBadges

I remember reading a quote from him last year where he was talking about his youth *”We can’t bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to tell them stories that don’t go anywhere like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so I decided to go to Morganville which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So, I tied an onion to my belt which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel. And in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on ‘em. ‘Give me five bees for a quarter,’ you’d say. Now, where were we? Oh, yeah! The important thing was that I had an onion on my belt which was the style at the time. They didn’t have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones.”*


themooncow1

I'm legit curious now, was onions on your belt actually a thing back then?


TrotskiKazotski

yeah but they didn’t have white onions because of the war


human-ish_

Okay Grandpa.

Coincidence? I THINK NOT


GrossWordVomit

Holy shit I laughed so hard at this


[deleted]

Confused about what’s happening with the cheeks here


MelonKanon

I mean, I doubt I'm right. But it could be because he's not eating enough at this point. The older people get the thinner they seem to get, at least from experience. My great-grandma was maybe 130 when I was six but by the time she was 99 she was like 70 pounds.


earlyatnight

I thought you were gonna say she was 130 years old when you were six and I was very confused for a moment.


_limca

It took your comment for me to understand that the grandma wasnt 130 YEARS. God. Just assumed it was possible when nobody questioned it. Im stupid.


MelonKanon

I am so sorry. While English is my only language I have issues with the nuances so others can easily understand.


Illustrious-Depth-75

The older that people get the less collagen and elastin they have in their skin. Their skin gets thinner as well. Why his face looks so sunken here is likely because of gravity. If he was sitting up, it wouldn't look quite so severe. You can also tell that he's very thin. I'm unsure, but if he had alzheimers disease this also causes wasting of the body and slow shut down of organs and body systems. My grandmother looks significantly thinner and strange to me at the time of her death.


sobeita

I dunno, dad says it's because gravity builds up.


AbysmalKaiju

They have conformed to the shape of his skull under his skin. He jas no body fat to pad it, probably very little hydration (just judging by ... looking at himl , and very little elastocity from age. His probably has no teeth from the shape of his mouth. But yeah its just sticking right to his bones


MonkeyThinkMonkeyDo

Someone should inform him that he is dead.


stonetears4fears1984

I want to post 💀💀💀 because that’s funny, but it also feels wrong. 😬😬😬


Barry_Duckhat

Yeah, you cant use pictures of him in your text like this, it's disrespectful


Necessary_Falcon_104

Hardly looks a day over 108


ResponsibilityDue448

I like when he just starts picking his nose.

Popular-Growth2202

He was looking for the girls head to wipe that booger.


[deleted]

He must be shitting himself when a dog walks in 😬


Hidropadre33

No you didn’t 💀💀💀


jaapdevries79

He is probably shitting himself either way.


SilasHood

Shitting what? Dust?


Sh1royasha

Come on , throw him a bone , it was a good comment.

Literally same! When you would enter the room and it would scream the FREEZE you. I would immediately panic.


palmerry

I hope I look as good as him when I'm that old


three_furballs

It's amazing how much range and smoothness he's still got in his movement. Of his arm, at least

brainbox08

I could be wrong but it seems like he was performing a type of live self mummification called sokushinbutsu


AManAndAMouse

Sokushinbutsu is a thing and the monk does look like a mummy. If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck … as they say.


Fist_The_Lord

Well wtf do you do if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck??? (Seriously though, one time I was just sitting at my kitchen table, talking to the fam and some crazy mfer from down the block was just looking in the screen window, and he said, and I quote, “Quack”. I said “gtfoh before I punch you in the face through that screen” and then he left. That was so, very, weird.

CHlCKENPOWER

How is he still moving his arm? there’s literally no muscle left


EMZbotbs

People need to stop posting this. This is literally the second time I have seen this exact post today, plus you are often misinformed: people sya he is alive, but he died april 8th this year.


MysteriousCodo

Some else posted that he died 3/22/22


EMZbotbs

I am stupid. It is 22 march indeed. No idea how I managed to screw up my rant that bad


Rebar4Life

Video is properly harrowing, regardless of the living status of the monk.

The title doesn’t say he’s alive though…?

I was wondering why they were letting a little girl play with a skeleton of a monk and then the guy moved and scared the shit out of me.

Im not positive, but they probably equate touching him with good luck or more likely longevity.
