Catilin Doughty is best known as the YouTube star Ask A Mortician.
And one of her more recent videos has revealed what she deems to be the ‘worst possible way to die’.
Posting to her 1.84 million subscribers, Caitlin holds nothing back when it comes to all things macabre.
But speaking recently, the LA-based undertaker told her viewers that ‘bad deaths’ across all cultures have similar features.
She explained that bad deaths are typically:
“It’s tragic and unexpected, a suicide, a homicide, a terrible accident. For the survivors, the worst thing could be when the body is never found and funeral and mourning rituals can’t be performed.”
However when speaking about the worst possible way to die, Caitlin explained that it’s an ancient form of torture known as ‘the boats.
She explained:
“First your body is stripped naked and you’re put between two hollowed-out logs with your head and limbs sticking out. Then they pour honey all over you and force you to ingest honey which attracts insects. Then they leave you in a stagnate pond to be slowly eaten – but they come back every day to forcibly feed you more milk and honey so you don’t die right away, eventually succumbing to exposure, dehydration, shock and delirium.”
This method of forced death, was supposed to prolong suffering.
It’s certainly not the way I want to go.
