I'm paying already, that's nothing. 105 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: There's also a couple's plot upgrade called the Final double 106 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: Date and get a second half price if your partner 107 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: quote checks out within twenty five years of you. 108 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 2: Sorry, but the name of it is. 109 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: So nexed, and apparently some people are considering bringing this 110 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,799 Speaker 1: same idea to the US. Inspired by Paris, American cities 111 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 1: are exploring the concept of having a burial lottery. To 112 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: a memo from one of the famous cemeteries in our 113 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: country said that it would help because it would help 114 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: fund graveyard upkeep and also boost posthumous tourism. I didn't 115 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 1: know that was a thing. It's posthumous tourism. Yeah, interesting, 116 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: after you die tourism is a thing. 117 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 4: Oh. I thought it was like like that people would 118 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 4: go and visit graveyards, like grave sites of the people 119 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 4: that they liked, like that. 120 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 2: Tourism is a thing. 121 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I'm thinking that they just want because you're 122 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 1: getting buried next to the famous person. 123 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,159 Speaker 2: It's not like people are coming to visit you, right right, 124 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 2: but they'll see me. So I have a really good 125 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 2: picture on my tombstone. 126 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 3: Next to me? 127 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 2: Is that girl? 128 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: Another line from the leaked memo that they got a 129 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: hold of said it would make death profitable. 130 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 2: Again, WHOA why just you could leave that sentence out? 131 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 2: Isn't that the headstones job? Isn't that where they make money? 132 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 3: But I will say it's not a bad idea if 133 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 3: you think about it, because there are a lot of 134 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 3: tombstones that they start breaking down, so this is a 135 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 3: good way to like upkeep them. 136 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 2: I thought it was a family's responsibility to take care 137 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 2: of that. Maybe that's justn't mind. I don't know should be, 138 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 2: but there's no living relatives who's going to keep it? 139 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: What official Comparis said, some people dream of living near celebrities, 140 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: Parisians dream of dying near them.
