This guy is the definition of charisma. He takes a topic that can be incredibly morbid and depressing, and finds a way to make it fascinating and even artistic. He could narrate paint drying and I'd be engaged.
Victor, if you see this, please know that you helped me get through a close friend's passing. He was young like me, and you never expect something like this to happen. During the viewing before the funeral, I noticed that his cheeks were pink and rosy, he didn't look caked in make-up and he simply looked asleep. I immediately thought about the things you mentioned about the red liquid and how it's used to bring color to faces. I also remembered how you talked about why morticians place the left hand over the right. All of those things were going through my head as I saw my good friend laying in the casket. And you know what? Knowing that he had received such good care because you detailed how bodies are to be handled and cared for brought some peace to my heart. Thank you, Victor. 🙏🏿
Hey @SupermanHopkins, I'm sorry about the loss of your friend. I've gone through it, too, and it's one of life's really hard things. I'm glad my videos have helped and I hope you continue to heal while never forgetting your friend. Seeing our loved ones is a difficult but beautiful thing. Take care of yourself, my friend.
Came looking for these videos to say the same! My grandpa passed away after an excruciatingly long time in the hospital, he was only the ghost of himself by the time he was gone, and all of us while being somewhat relieved that he was finally out of his suffering (if you've ever witnessed a loved one in a constant state of pain, you know what I mean), we did not want to remember him like that, and at first we wanted a closed casket so that other people wouldn't see him, because it was simply not fair to him...the mortician however reassured us, and did such an amazing job at preparing him that when we saw him in the casket we almost couldn't breathe, he looked more alive there than in his last months, so peaceful and serene that I fe it was almost therapeutic to us. I remembered Victor's videos, and same as you I felt better thinking of the care that the mortician must have put into doing such a great job and felt more grateful for it.
those are very serious questions. i mean no questions a joke question i’m glad he answered them cuz the were good questions and i was curious about some of them too.
I'm sure he's aware that if he is light with these kinds of questions, even the sillier ones, it might make it seem as if he doesn't take the process seriously.
I think he'd be a great host of any kind of science show. He's great at explaining things in an honest, straight forward sometimes humorous manner that anyone can understand.
This man has both the most mortician name and backstory, he embraces death as a natural thing and he decided to make a job out of that. Truly inspiring, 10/10 person
Especially when he states that he feels it’s the least he can do for someone going through a hard time and he thinks about helping people through this one thing it’s very very inspiring and he has a great mindset about working a this job
What is more natural than death, it happens every moment all time, death leaves falling, ants eating, animals devouring other, man killing animals for food, they are dying like in trillions, life is build by death. Embraces death, it not need embrace, it already embraced by life.
That’s what I came to the comments to look for, I just thought something like that could easily screw someone up. Nice to see that he took all of the death around him and really Channeled into a way that he could help others.
@@3Runeknight "That is such a great question, the long answer is : Yes, but when they do we take this big chunk of wood and stab them in the heart with it"
He looks just like a guy they'd write/cast for a movie about a mortician in the 90's. A little goofy but you can imagine he can be scary if he wants to be.
i agree when he said "you can help a family a way nobody else can" the funeral director/mortician for my grandmother was amazing. she looked beautiful and so peaceful. she didnt look scary or dead at all. truly like she was just sleeping. he was also so extremally kind. explained everything that was happening, what would be happening next. truly amazing people. i think it is such an under appreciated job.
The only mortician I knew was a raging alcoholic. He worked in a small town, and had to bury a lot of locals he grew up with. More than he thought he would have to, around his age even. The guy was a complete wreck. This was about 10 years ago and I DOUBT he's still alive now. He was almost in his 40s, late 30s. I'm like 100% sure he ended his life. This guy makes it seem like it's no pressure or emotional toll, but if that's the case he's a sociopath which explains his detached "charisma"
@@jkeezy93 yeah, most morticians are depressed druggies or alcoholics, because they know a ton of the people they grew up, dated, loved, were family with. They see all these people they care for dying young and their tasked with preserving the death. I can only imagine the toll it takes. This man is no doubt a train wreck, but he’s learned how to hide it well.
There is comic in there some where. Funeral director by day...super hero by night. He is...The Mortician. Tracking down the criminals who were responsible for the deaths of the people he buries!
@@nickchavez720 He would be incredibly easy to find though... maybe "The Mortician" might not be that good of superhero persona to hide your real identity behind, especially when your real identity is that of a funeral director. XD It would sort of be like if Bruce Wayne's superhero persona was "Billionaire-Man". XD
@@Calistarius79 that is part of the appeal. Dramatic irony! When the criminal is on the ground looking up at him and asks "Who are you?" He will say "Im the Mortician." Telling him the truth indirectly. Its funny.
@Yogi Breeze Having this reply pop up as a notification out-of-context at 1 AM was honestly terrifying to me lol. It’s not so much death that I’m scared of, I just don’t like the idea of people doing stuff to my body after I die.
Sameee Not terrified about the idea of “death”, but instead I hate reading/listening to things relating to flesh & blood like what morticians/doctors do to a body.
@Yogi Breeze felt like replying cause I think this is a good answer, in ways I am not afraid of death if it were a quick death like a gun to the head/heart, quick car crash or anything of the sort if it isn’t painful I’d say no I’m not scared cause I won’t feel it, if it were painful like bleeding out slowly and feeling the pain yes I would be afraid.
He's used to it as he does it for a living. I'm sure anyone would be able to enthusiastically talk about drilling mouths shut with a piston if they do it at least once every week
If there's ever a movie that requires a small scene with a mortician, this guy should be a cameo as it. He's got great character, and he looks more like a mortician naturally than anything hollywood could ever make artificially.
'I found my best friend dead in his bed when I was 4.' Honestly heartbreaking to hear, so glad he turned out well educated, well spoken, well dressed, and to have genuine care for what he does. That kind of trauma at such a young age is enough to destroy anyone.
Seems like the kind of thing that’s gonna either turn you into a psychopath, or a well-adjusted mortician, and perhaps not a single other option lol. This guy is either one of the most at-peace individuals in the world, or a serial killer waiting to happen lol. But he seems to be wonderful, and that’s a nice outcome.
you get used to just turning off your brain when you are treating bodies that are heavily mutilated. or, by the way, those that pass too young.... those are way harder to deal with than someone who's body has been (partially) damaged. its better to just turn off your brain, and fix it, then once you are done, look with pride at being able to give the relatives a proper last goodbye. Oh, and a lot of morbid humor between colleagues helps aswel.
It happened to him to make a big change in society and the devil is a man he was killed by the illuminati owns the media issues that I am not kidding about it because I am crystal child of God who is a very strong and intelligent talented and gifted young jeezy who is a part of the country who has been on the streets of the United states for decades
As a funeral director, huge applause for Victor. We all have our little quirks, tips, and tricks of the trade, but I believe every answer he gave was spot on! You can tell he is a true professional.
I attended an open casket funeral for a friend that had been hit by a train in her vehicle. These morticians truly are artist of their craft; she had looked as beautiful as ever.
You should check out Caitlin Doughty /Ask A Mortician on yt, I think you'd really like her videos if you've enjoyed these. :) Lots of cool info about famous dead people, funeral practices around the world, different types of funerals, the industry etc. 😊 Lots of fascinating info!

"Actually, being the mortician for someone you know is kind of nice" Telling your friends and family "You're great! I'm really gonna enjoy burying you."
@@guillermocuadra1990 i don't think it's indifference, it seems to him what he does is helpful for the friends and family of the deceased. So in a way him working on someone he knows is him helping the friends and family of that person and in a way helping the person who passed away too. And it does feel nice if you know you are helping a friend or family.
Depends on how you see it. My best friend died in front of me when we were 5 years old and I couldn't do a thing. If you wish to believe he's in a better place because he was a great person...then you'll have not have a bad time with it because you watch it in a positive light . If you think that you're useless because your friend died in front of you and you didn't do anything....then obviously it's gonna haunt you for your life.
I almost became a mortician, but towards graduation I developed an allergy to the embalming chemicals. I really hope these videos inspire more people to pursue educations in mortuary science.
He looks exactly like how I assumed a mortician would look like. His name is Victor M. Sweeney like pleaseeeee he's basically a tim Burton character. Love that
There’s a rather local mortician who specialized in children’s funerals. When I talked to her she said she’ll ask the family the child’s fav show and then while prepping the body, she plays the show. Her belief is the soul sometimes watches their body, and she believe the fav show and comfort item being in the area helps the child’s soul. It’s actually really nice.
“I found my best friend dead on the bed when I was four” hearing that I couldn’t bear the thought, it’s truly inspiring to see how strong of a person he is
My grandfather passed away early this year. It made me feel very happy to hear about how they set his facial features. Seeing him not in pain and with his signature smirk helped me and my family a bunch.
I'm sure he has plenty of time outside of his job to do that! Joking. The only mortician I knew was a raging alcoholic. He worked in a small town, and had to bury a lot of locals he grew up with. More than he thought he would have to, around his age even. The guy was a complete wreck. This was about 10 years ago and I DOUBT he's still alive now. He was almost in his 40s, late 30s. I'm like 100% sure he ended his life. This guy makes it seem like it's no pressure or emotional toll, but if that's the case he's a sociopath which explains his detached "charisma"
@@jkeezy93 i think he just thinks about it differently. As he said, he gets to make the lives of those who knew the deceased person better. He’s just an optimist
My brother passed by a self inflicted gun shot wound to the head, we really weren't ready(obviously) and begged the mortician to do whatever they could to give us an open casket. He did AMAZING it looked like he was sleeping peacefully. Totally helped my family grieve. What you guys do IS SO IMPORTANT, thank you!
Wow, impressive. I always thought open casket was weird, but when my son died all I wanted to do was see him for one last time. It didn't seem creepy at all. It's hard when people die so young isn't it?
I am more impressed by his reaction like he can DO something about it, like he cannot avoid death, but he can help people around him to deal with it. And he does it with a lot of humour apparently. He must be an extremely balanced and "evolved" person - if you see what I mean.
i find Victor charming, well dressed and very disturbing, all at the same time. He's got a cool 1940's vibe going too :) I hope to see more of him, he's a good educator
I love this guy. He is so professional with it without explaining it in a boring way. He explains it in a way everyone can understand and takes all questions serious. I could watch him hours long
@@violettbellerose1173 he said he lives in a small town, so he must know a lot of people there. Also, there is less death, so he is more likely to know the person he is operating on.
@@tominieminen66 Not about convenience; about the comfort of knowing with greater confidence that he was successful in presenting the deceased "as they were," because he actually knew them in life. With a stranger, he has to guess a bit, and can never be quite certain he got it right. In both cases he cares deeply, but with people he knows personally, he has enough information to feel sure that he has served them well.
@Cthulhu Americans might also have antique zombies/skeletons roaming the land. It’s the norm here for a grave to be a final resting place that shouldn’t be dug up for any reason. So we probably have our fair share of undisturbed graves dating back literally 400 years. So if modern American zombies are all buried in sealed caskets with sealed jaws, our zombie apocalypse could just be the skeleton war.
This guy seems really wholesome, down to earth and we'll put together. Idk what it is about these people in these odd jobs that makes them come off very sympathic, charismatic and mature.
@@claymore339 not to mention that depending on your actual job at a mortician's it can be very public facing where anyone who isn't sympathetic or has good people skills isn't going to last. A lot of sensitivity required when dealing with the bereaved, obviously :)
I always have so much respect for morticians and coroners. Not many people could handle this job emotionally, but those who do give as much closure to the family as possible.
I love this guy. He's informative but doesn't make his facts too dark and depressing. His whole demeanor is fantastic, and he makes the video entertaining.
The “your there to help” line is big. That’s the answer I give when people ask the same about working with hospice patients. This stuff happens either way but I’m at least helping making it more palatable. Really resonated with me!
I totally agree. He has such a death-positive point of view and it's really calming. Someone else I like who has really helped death be less scary is Caitlin Doughty. She's worth checking out if you want more of that vibe ❤
@@afa1515 yeah it isn’t about the event of you being dead that is scary, but more like after you are your unfinished business will stayed unfinished, and you will literally see tomorrow or any of your friends or families, so just knowing that you are going to die might scare some people
@@afa1515 True but sometimes you don't want that to happen when you're unprepared though but my reason to fear death is I'm going to miss a lot of stuff like movies, books, animes and etc.
@@louisefp1161 You won't miss anything. It will happen, but nothing you have to worry about. What's the big deal? Not like you'll miss or regret to have not read/seen it.
There is so much about this guy that is amazing His name His backstory His professionalism His conduct The way he dresses (love the waistcoat) The way he never laughs at questions Th detail in his answers The way he is educating us to a profession we, frankly, hear very little about. The way his literally looks the way I woud picture a mortician looking. his humility.
I have a sweatshirt that says “Future Corpse” and am headed to mortuary school in the fall. Morticia Addams would be proud of us both. Jokes aside….losing both parents within two months at age 15 really has a lot to do with going into the profession.
Idk ive also grown up losing a lot of people and going through about a funeral or two a year and I honestly think its given me a much better grasp on death and accepting it than my peers. Obviously its sad and every death is different but idk that’s just life? Its okay
@@lilibillie2002 I venture especially when young it’s just something you’re aware you’re gonna hafta pull through with in order to live a happy life. Nothing is certain in life except for death.
It's normal if you're part of a big family..... Uncles, cousins, grandparents. It'd be near impossible to reach adulthood without attending a couple of funerals.
I do think he doesn't see it as a sad thing (anymore), and rather, as he said, found a thing he feels he should help with. Turning that sadness into a calling is a strong motivator by all means, I'd say.
This guy is a saint, he never laughs at questions, he takes them all serious. He’s making me realize how morticians do a big job that’s important for a family’s last moments and we don’t appreciate it because we don’t like to think about that portion 🥺
I’d also recommend a Japanese movie Departures (okuribito, 2008). It does have cultural specifics but the general vibe is “give morticians the respect they deserve” and I think it’s beautiful.
@@TheLadybughug definitely will-still have some questions and would love to learn more about a career I never gave any thought to. Thanks for the recommendation! :)
He's so adorable in a...I guess...morbid kind of way when he talks about his job. How sad about his friend. I'm glad he turned such a traumatizing event into something more by helping people put their love ones to rest.
@@arian6565 are you a professional to diagnose him as a psychopath? and op is just expressing that they find the mortician adorable, how is that naive? we all are attracted to certain personalities.
he's the opposite of what you'd imagine a real life mortician would be an exactly what you'd imagine a mortician would be if he the main protagonist in a film
I recently lost my 2-year-old niece to RSV and we had an open-casket funeral for her. Everything that was talked about in these videos was in the back of my mind while I saw how peaceful she looked laying there. I'll never forget having to bury her so young😔
Definitely should do a series with Victor. He's very enlightening on such a dampering subject. I honestly think it shouldn't be considered taboo, Death is natural and we'll all die eventually.
Victor is one of the morticians in my hometown! He helped out with my dad's funeral back in January. He's just as fantastic in person as he is in the Wired videos! 😊
Hot, articulate, well dressed, funny and genuine, very kind hearted… And the name. This guy is literally the perfect mortician. And I can't believe that's actually a thing. But there he is.
what I love about this man: His name is perfect for a mortician His outfit is beautiful (I need his fashion secrets) His personality is awesome His profession is amazing He has some super interesting information that's cool to know and finally, the way he treats every question like a fun teacher makes me feel engaged rather than scared.

I'm just gonna say Victor Sweeney is the perfect name for a mortician
@@georgewilliamson5667 sounds like a character of a movie set in the 50's
Naw, probably Mortimer ;).
i like how he speaks and explains himself. if he wasn't a mortician he's probably a private tutor or a college professor somewhere.
i agree but dont forget that they cut out pauses etc. so the impression you get isnt as "real" as you might think
He certainly looks the type
I read this as he said “short answer, no.” Without explaining himself.
He has dignity and class
Yeah he could be a professor of a mortician school.
This guy is surprisingly cute for a dude who deals with the dead all the time. And surprisingly charismatic for a guy with spooky backstory
He looks just like a guy they'd write/cast for a movie about a mortician in the 90's. A little goofy but you can imagine he can be scary if he wants to be.
Yeah
Hey, us funeral directors are humans too lol
That's exactly what makes me a bit uneasy about him😂
I feel like thats his coping mechanism
i agree when he said "you can help a family a way nobody else can" the funeral director/mortician for my grandmother was amazing. she looked beautiful and so peaceful. she didnt look scary or dead at all. truly like she was just sleeping. he was also so extremally kind. explained everything that was happening, what would be happening next. truly amazing people. i think it is such an under appreciated job.
I would like to ask him if he stopped saying “hope to see you again soon” when he became a mortician
The big one for me was watching when I say “How’s it going?”
It’s hardly ever someone’s best day when I meet them.
@@victorm.sweeney8828 definitely don't use the Apu "thank you, come again" as a goodbye in a cheery customer service voice.

Have a good day is another one that disappears when you're in the funeral industry too lol. Most of us say "take care" instead.

I keep thinking Sweeney Todd. But he seems like a nice person who knows his job.
"That, is such a fine question"
A question that's about to be answered by an equally fine mortician
“Are all morticians this hot?”
“No.”
Handsome and funny, what a guy
Don't drop the soap, don't drop the soap
@@agentmilton6585 Drop the soap, drop the soap.
The only mortician I knew was a raging alcoholic. He worked in a small town, and had to bury a lot of locals he grew up with. More than he thought he would have to, around his age even. The guy was a complete wreck. This was about 10 years ago and I DOUBT he's still alive now. He was almost in his 40s, late 30s. I'm like 100% sure he ended his life.
This guy makes it seem like it's no pressure or emotional toll, but if that's the case he's a sociopath which explains his detached "charisma"
@@jkeezy93 yeah, most morticians are depressed druggies or alcoholics, because they know a ton of the people they grew up, dated, loved, were family with. They see all these people they care for dying young and their tasked with preserving the death. I can only imagine the toll it takes. This man is no doubt a train wreck, but he’s learned how to hide it well.
@@jkeezy93 He's definitely not that okay but I don't think he's a sociopath or anything.

It would sort of be like if Bruce Wayne's superhero persona was "Billionaire-Man". XD
@@Calistarius79 that is part of the appeal. Dramatic irony! When the criminal is on the ground looking up at him and asks "Who are you?" He will say "Im the Mortician." Telling him the truth indirectly. Its funny.
Netflix needs to make a show with this guy. He is so easy to watch and really good at explaining everything
This man says some terrifying things with the most pleasant voice and expression.
@Yogi Breeze Having this reply pop up as a notification out-of-context at 1 AM was honestly terrifying to me lol. It’s not so much death that I’m scared of, I just don’t like the idea of people doing stuff to my body after I die.
Sameee
Not terrified about the idea of “death”, but instead I hate reading/listening to things relating to flesh & blood like what morticians/doctors do to a body.
@Yogi Breeze felt like replying cause I think this is a good answer, in ways I am not afraid of death if it were a quick death like a gun to the head/heart, quick car crash or anything of the sort if it isn’t painful I’d say no I’m not scared cause I won’t feel it, if it were painful like bleeding out slowly and feeling the pain yes I would be afraid.
@Yogi Breeze existential crisis moment
He's used to it as he does it for a living. I'm sure anyone would be able to enthusiastically talk about drilling mouths shut with a piston if they do it at least once every week
Victor needs his own series. Very informative, likable, and entertaining.
His own channel

Also Victor reacts to mortician scenes in movies and television shows
100% agree!
you can always check out Ask a Mortician
If there's ever a movie that requires a small scene with a mortician, this guy should be a cameo as it. He's got great character, and he looks more like a mortician naturally than anything hollywood could ever make artificially.
Normal people: *Undertaker is scary*
Me, a cultured individual: *And here comes the true legend of the dead, Victor Sweeny!!!*

He seems like such a nice guy. I'm glad there are people like him attending to the deceased with care and respect.
'I found my best friend dead in his bed when I was 4.'
Honestly heartbreaking to hear, so glad he turned out well educated, well spoken, well dressed, and to have genuine care for what he does. That kind of trauma at such a young age is enough to destroy anyone.
Sounds like he had great parents it seems
Trauma when handled correctly, isn't always traumatic.
Try mine
Seems like the kind of thing that’s gonna either turn you into a psychopath, or a well-adjusted mortician, and perhaps not a single other option lol. This guy is either one of the most at-peace individuals in the world, or a serial killer waiting to happen lol. But he seems to be wonderful, and that’s a nice outcome.
That would destroy me tbh.
this guy mental strength is so strong is scary. imagine fixing a be headed corpse with wide eyes open.
Yeah him and butchers, cant understand how they get used to all that
To some people mangled bodies just have no effect
Easier than it sounds
@FBI ayo what
you get used to just turning off your brain when you are treating bodies that are heavily mutilated. or, by the way, those that pass too young.... those are way harder to deal with than someone who's body has been (partially) damaged. its better to just turn off your brain, and fix it, then once you are done, look with pride at being able to give the relatives a proper last goodbye.
Oh, and a lot of morbid humor between colleagues helps aswel.
This guy is so eloquent. He sounds like a college professor.
Eloquence is learned
he sounds so nice
I think it helps that he treats literally every question as the most interesting thing in the world. Big "favorite professor" energy.

As a funeral director, huge applause for Victor. We all have our little quirks, tips, and tricks of the trade, but I believe every answer he gave was spot on! You can tell he is a true professional.
Thank you for your comment. I am considering changing careers to a Funeral Director and looking for as much information as possible!
Responding to basically every question with a "that's a great question!" really makes me think that he'd be a great school teacher.
Or at least he should go and do talks at schools. He answers questions so well!
Hey probably makes a good deal more than a school teacher. At least in the US
Imagine him at school career day...
That's a great thought! lol
"That's a great question" he says calmly..
I attended an open casket funeral for a friend that had been hit by a train in her vehicle. These morticians truly are artist of their craft; she had looked as beautiful as ever.

me too
"Actually, being the mortician for someone you know is kind of nice"
Telling your friends and family "You're great! I'm really gonna enjoy burying you."
Indeed, I caught that too and couldn’t help but notice his tolerance to sorrow has turned into indifference
Well, what he meant is that it's easier for him to make a natural look on the deceased and help the family during the dueling process.
What a creepy distortion of what he said
@@guillermocuadra1990 i don't think it's indifference, it seems to him what he does is helpful for the friends and family of the deceased. So in a way him working on someone he knows is him helping the friends and family of that person and in a way helping the person who passed away too. And it does feel nice if you know you are helping a friend or family.
When someone dies,everyone wants to help the deceased person's family. But usually you can't do much. By taking care of the body he is helping them.
This guy seems like he needs a hug, finding a friend dead in his bed when you are just 4 probably stays with you for life
Depends on how you see it.
My best friend died in front of me when we were 5 years old and I couldn't do a thing.
If you wish to believe he's in a better place because he was a great person...then you'll have not have a bad time with it because you watch it in a positive light .

I always imagined morticians to be old and creepy, the exact opposite of this dude
Yea he looks like a character in a movie
Really reminds me of Alex Baldwin’s character in Beetlejuice
There’s a rather local mortician who specialized in children’s funerals. When I talked to her she said she’ll ask the family the child’s fav show and then while prepping the body, she plays the show. Her belief is the soul sometimes watches their body, and she believe the fav show and comfort item being in the area helps the child’s soul. It’s actually really nice.

He did AMAZING it looked like he was sleeping peacefully. Totally helped my family grieve. What you guys do IS SO IMPORTANT, thank you!
Godspeed to your brother. I hope your family finds peace.
Wow, impressive. I always thought open casket was weird, but when my son died all I wanted to do was see him for one last time. It didn't seem creepy at all. It's hard when people die so young isn't it?

I am more impressed by his reaction like he can DO something about it, like he cannot avoid death, but he can help people around him to deal with it. And he does it with a lot of humour apparently. He must be an extremely balanced and "evolved" person - if you see what I mean.

Did it seem sweet? I did other things at the same time but it just sounded like he appreciated the convenience of knowing how to present them
@@tominieminen66 Not about convenience; about the comfort of knowing with greater confidence that he was successful in presenting the deceased "as they were," because he actually knew them in life. With a stranger, he has to guess a bit, and can never be quite certain he got it right. In both cases he cares deeply, but with people he knows personally, he has enough information to feel sure that he has served them well.

Americans might also have antique zombies/skeletons roaming the land. It’s the norm here for a grave to be a final resting place that shouldn’t be dug up for any reason. So we probably have our fair share of undisturbed graves dating back literally 400 years. So if modern American zombies are all buried in sealed caskets with sealed jaws, our zombie apocalypse could just be the skeleton war.

It's normal if you're part of a big family..... Uncles, cousins, grandparents. It'd be near impossible to reach adulthood without attending a couple of funerals.
I do think he doesn't see it as a sad thing (anymore), and rather, as he said, found a thing he feels he should help with. Turning that sadness into a calling is a strong motivator by all means, I'd say.

Damnit, he is simultaneously the exact opposite of what I’d imagine a mortician would be like and exactly what I’d imagine a mortician would be like.
he's the opposite of what you'd imagine a real life mortician would be an exactly what you'd imagine a mortician would be if he the main protagonist in a film
@@imnotdavidxnsx Well said and relatable af oof
This comment makes no sense to me
He looks like a character straight out of a Tim Burton movie. The face, the charm, even the NAME. Oh my god hahah I like this guy.
VICTOR SWEENEY-
The ideal man. Obviously a psychopath
Lucky us hes a mortician and not a barber
HIS NAME LEGIT VICTOR SWEENEY BRO I CANT BRO HEL[P
He reminds me of george mcfly
he is clearly warming to this format - professional, likeable and with a wicked sense of humour
"wicked sense of humour"
To keep sanity intact.
I recently lost my 2-year-old niece to RSV and we had an open-casket funeral for her. Everything that was talked about in these videos was in the back of my mind while I saw how peaceful she looked laying there. I'll never forget having to bury her so young😔
Definitely should do a series with Victor. He's very enlightening on such a dampering subject. I honestly think it shouldn't be considered taboo, Death is natural and we'll all die eventually.
Check out Ask A Mortician!
I think the Queen is immortal
@@Mster_J She may be an exception 💀
Personally I thought it was a really weird subject. I was feeling sick hearing him talk ab the specifics. Idk how anyone can do that job for a living
@@keflalssj that's proof positive that the job isn't for everybody...
Victor is one of the morticians in my hometown! He helped out with my dad's funeral back in January. He's just as fantastic in person as he is in the Wired videos! 😊
That's comforting. (really!)
He seems like a sweetheart!
What town??
@@Womanofkales let's not doxx the man
Warren MN (near ND). He's very public online, not hard to find.
He is SO charismatic, in another life he should’ve been an actor or something. I love this guy.
He really gives me "john cena's brother" vibes
@Skelli that’s a bizarre observation??
@Skelli uhhhh....
@Skelli I’m not sure how can you tell someone who has anti social personality disorder but I’m pretty sure you can’t just assume he’s a psychopath
@Skelli skeletons have aspe
Hot, articulate, well dressed, funny and genuine, very kind hearted… And the name. This guy is literally the perfect mortician.
And I can't believe that's actually a thing. But there he is.
His backstory on how he became a mortician makes his character so much deeper
his friend and sister was so tragic
Imagine the trauma he got finding his friend dead at 4
@@flowermagnolia4551 everyone will lose some of their loved ones...
Yeah. Around 6ft deeper.
@@SupremeCommanderBaiser 😟
If he ever changes profesion he could be a good teacher, he is really great at explaining things.
imagine he just casually tells his students abt an experience throughout his old job tho- those kids would prolly be traumatized 💀
@@spitballandher "And that kids, is how I stapled the jaws of a dead body! Don't want that to happen to ya? Then don't die!"
@@adrielsebastian5216 If you study hard and score well, you won't die!
Is anyone else thinking about how he says “I haven’t had too much experience with decapitation” like bro I wanna hear THAT story.
Well I’m guessing someone lost their head
@@pressedinproductions huh I never would’ve guessed
@@pressedinproductions whoat
iok jefa brkw
@@unwrittenemmy098 apparently you’re not the only one
@@bradentheman1373 you ok?
what I love about this man:
His name is perfect for a mortician
His outfit is beautiful (I need his fashion secrets)
His personality is awesome
His profession is amazing
He has some super interesting information that's cool to know
and finally, the way he treats every question like a fun teacher makes me feel engaged rather than scared.
