A Man and His Truck

Because of his battle with an incurable disease, Don Adan Arana of Puerto San Carlos, Mexico, was unable to enjoy the pickup truck his son had recently given him.

Before he died, Arana told his family that he'd like to be buried in the truck so that he could make up for lost time, driving it in the afterlife, Oddity Central reported.

On Nov. 4, a crane was used to lift the truck into a brick-lined tomb, and Arana's coffin was placed in the truck's bed.

However, Arana's family may have to pay a fine, as they didn't receive authorization for the unconventional interment. [Oddity Central, 11/9/2021]
