His Dying Wish? A Snickers Coffin—And His Family Delivered 🍫⚰️

Published March 24, 2025

Some people want a grand funeral, others prefer a simple send-off—but Paul Broome? He wanted to go out in Snickers style.

The British candy-loving prankster had long joked about being buried in a coffin that looked like a Snickers bar. Most of his friends and family thought he was just messing around—until they saw it written in his will.

A Sweet Goodbye

Broome, a care assistant known for his quick wit and mischievous sense of humour, got his final wish when his loved ones designed his coffin to look like a partially unwrapped Snickers bar. And because no joke is complete without a punchline, they even painted “I’m nuts!” on the side. 😂

While it might seem unusual, his family felt it was the perfect way to honour someone who lived life with laughter.

Not the Only Unconventional Send-Off

If you think this is the most bizarre final request, think again. In 2021, a man’s kids poured his ashes down a bar drain—because, well, that’s where he spent most of his time.

Moral of the story? If you have a wild final wish, make sure your loved ones know you’re serious—they just might go through with it.
