Mortician reveals list of activities she will never do

A mortician has revealed the activities she will never take part in after being “scarred” by what she’s seen in her job.

TikToker Lauren Eliza shared a series of videos showing the terrifying outcomes of crashes in campervans and after skydiving.

The stay-at-home mum was formerly a funeral director and said she “picked up” many bodies that were victims of everyday activities that have left her traumatise, The Sun reports.

“Yes, I’m a little scarred,” she captioned the first of three videos listing the pastimes and hobbies she’ll never be taking up.

Standing and holding a mug, Lauren snapped her fingers as she explains that these are the things “I will NEVER do because I’m a mortician.”

She then shows a motorcycle and motorhome before revealing a picture of the wreckage after a crash.

“Please look out for motorcycles,” she advised

“Whatever this death trap is called … just no,” Lauren added over a picture of a paraglider.

“I think this one is pretty self-explanatory,” she said of a picture of skydivers.

She also had a stark warning for snow machines and for people going ice fishing.

“Don’t ride them on trails or lakes after dark,” she said.

This is what can happen,” the TikToker added over a picture of a vehicle plunging into the freezing water.

“No matter how thick the ice is in some spots, my greatest fear right here.”

Lauren also took a hit at all-terrain vehicles as she said, “I wouldn’t want to survive and be paralysed for life either.”

And going outside to watch the lightning during thunderstorms, swimming in any river, and playing golf in the rain are all massive no-nos.

Even horses weren’t safe.

“Have you seen the movie Spirit?” she asked.

And she said snow machines are also too dangerous with her comments causing a bit of a stir online. Picture: TikTok

‘Never actually live’

Lauren’s videos have sparked some debate in the comments section, however.

Some TikTok users believe she is missing out on the fun by ruling out activities where the chances of dying in an accident are slim.

“People are so afraid to die that they never actually live,” one user said.

“Pretty sure I can have a full life without getting in a motorhome.”

“I went skydiving and a week later someone died at the same place,” another commenter wrote.

“Anyways, I’m going back in March.”

Yet some agreed with her hesitance, especially given what she’d seen in her job.

“My mum was a paramedic. No trampolines, dirt bikes, 4 wheelers, convertibles, swimming without parents, etc,” one person wrote.

“My dad is a funeral director and as a kid, I was never allowed to get on a trampoline,” said another.
