In the center is an image of a stainless steel, pointed surgical instrument known as a trocar. Green and white text on a dark gray background reads: Embalming Tools! An incomplete guide to the surgical instruments that make corpses ready for the open casket. A trocar is a sharp tool used to pierce the abdominal cavity in order to allow gases and natural fluids to escape and, later, to inject embalming chemicals. deadparentswhatnow.com
In the center is an image of a stainless steel surgical instrument known as an aneurysm hook. Green and white text on a dark gray background reads: Embalming Tools! An incomplete guide to the surgical instruments that make corpses ready for the open casket. An aneurysm hook isolates blood vessels during the injection of embalming fluid to prevent damage to the arterial walls. deadparentswhatnow.com
In the center is an image of two plastic contact lenses topped with small barbs. Green and white text on a dark gray background reads: Embalming Tools! An incomplete guide to the surgical instruments that make corpses ready for the open casket. Eye caps hold the corpse's eyes closed by sitting over the eye and catching the eyelid with small spikes. deadparentswhatnow.com
Personally, I don't want to be embalmed. But I don't have anything against it! I just think people ought to be fully informed about what it involves. These are only a few of the instruments used in a typical embalming.

What's your take on unconventional preservation methods?

She is wearing her hair up in a bun on top of her head and she is wearing a black shirt with a white illustration on it. The illustration is of an embalmer who is pouring a bottle of embalming fluid into their embalming machine. The shirt has "Pour one for the homies" on it.

An image of Butthead standing in a mortician's office wearing blue scrubs and yellow long gloves, crying and in pain as he inserts forceps into a dead Beavis' jugular vein. Beavis is lying naked on an upright embalming table looking serene. The veins in his neck, arm, and thighs are bulging from the pink embalming fluid, which is replacing his blood. Beavis' blood is leaking out onto the table and down into a drain. The modesty towel over his schlong is blue and says "Metallica"
So this is probably one of the most interesting commissions I've ever gotten: an accurate depiction of Butthead embalming Beavis for my client, who's a funeral director. I love my life ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ #karlicartoons #beavisandbutthead #beavisxbutthead #macabre #embalming

Another interesting @SAPIENS_org-contribution by @nash_dr - this time on #embalming culture and #mortuary customs.
Made me ponder the question how related preservation concepts and techniques were in the past - whether food or a dear ancestor...
