Is it possible to have a Viking funeral where they set your longship on fire as you are pushed out to sea?

Yes. It will superheat and have a violent reaction when something touches it.

we are going through same situation.  my boyfriend is scheduled to ride a ship this next week and be a seafarer.  we won't see each other for about nine months.  the worst thing is there are a lot of temptations in a seafarer's life.  I know that's why it's really hard for me to take the reality everyday.  I have no choice.  All we can do is to trust the guy we love and believe them with what they are saying.  We have no choice anyway.  Just think possitively and remember that it's part of God's plan.  And whatever they will do, whether they remain faithful or not, it's their choice.  They must just be ready for the thing called "karma".

This is an old tradition and in the past captains did go down with the ship, it was considered an honorable thing to do, times have changed and I'm pretty sure that that tradition is no longer being practiced.  I think that some may chose to go down if not all the "passengers" have been removed.

It has been done before so don't go trying to burn anything you wouldn't want to get caught doing.LOL JK But yes it is possible to detect charred remains no matter what is used to fuel the fire.

sure fire trick....rig up claymore antipersonnal mines around your house. Then put up a sign tell them to kiss your hiney.....wait for them to come on property...hit trigger......be sure to bury the body parts. If needing additional assistance contact your local marine...lol

you could just relax and enjoy the" whatever you trade for your soul". from what i was told there is a religion it may be "latter day saints" not certain. that get lists of dead people and pray on their behalf for salvation. this could have amazing ramifications,if you haldn't made the necessary provisions for when you met your demize.

Believe me, you will live long enough to reach level 5.\nyahoo answers are like life, it just passes by before you know it. You'll be able to tell your grand children how you almost "gave up the ship", but you stuck with it. And you reached the highest level possible. I don't know what the hell you'll get when you reach there, but it'll make for a good story some day.....

That's probably not a good idea...I knew someone personally who was killed that way. Just be careful and bring someone with you, or at least a phone. Good luck.

Nope, sorry. When you die you get your six feet of cold earth. What you leave behind is your legacy, nothing more. Make your life count. This ain't no dress rehersal.

No. It is morally wrong to financially rape a grieving relative by over-charging for funeral services.\nCremation is sanitary, environmentally responsible, much, much cheaper, and if it's wrong morally, as you asked, what about all the saints who were burned at the stake by the Catholic church during the Inquisition because they disagreed with some of their doctrines? \nI think it's a great idea!

OK on ships it meant don't come to close we have the plague. later the pirates took it on to keep people away from the ship while in port. no one wants to go near a ship that has plague. as for goth and rock it just looks cool
