Undertaker reveals worst possible way to die - and you've probably never heard of it

A Youtuber has revealed the worst way a person can die - and it is not exactly what you would expect. Caitlin Doughty, better known as Ask a Mortician to her 1.84million subscribers, works in the funeral profession and speaks openly about death in her videos.

The LA-based undertaker, known as a mortician in the US, told her viewers in a one of her Q&A videos that "bad deaths" across cultures all tend to have similar features. She said: "It's tragic and unexpected, a suicide, a homicide, a terrible accident.

"For the survivors, the worst thing could be when the body is never found and funeral and mourning rituals can't be performed."
