Dead Body Explodes Inside of Funeral Home

Sometimes things happen which are due to negligence. From people either being lazy or overlooking something that needed to be done. Perhaps the simple mistake of being distracted can cause peculiar things to happen as well. This time, located at a Texas funeral home, a 38 year old man named Robert Cavazos Jr. unexpectedly exploded inside of his coffin.

The bizarre moment happened when the corpse randomly exploded according to friends, family and staff. Angered, the family decided to press charges against the funeral home located in Raymondville, Texas, with the assistance of attorney Maria Perez. The incident sent shock waves across the community, as it made headlines.

When Robert’s corpse was placed inside the funeral home, a loud noise was heard followed by an intense foul odor. The coffin was cement-lined, yet the force was powerful enough to rip open the coffin from the pressure. According to attorney Maria Perez, the dead body exploded due to not being embalmed. Gases built up as the decomposition process started to occur. This created enough force,to fragment the body inside into many pieces.

Robert’s 82 year old mother, along with 20 other mourners at the funeral home, all stated they heard a loud explosion. The foul smell filled the funeral home quickly, sending people outside for fresh air. Incredibly, family and friends could see Robert’s body through a cracked opening made from the explosion.

They noticed he was to be buried with just his underwear on. The horror of the whole thing still plagues the family since it happened. According to some conversations, family and friends still have nightmares about all of this.

Several hours after when Robert’s corpse exploded, mourners stood in front of the Dudleston Funeral home. It was there, as they watched in disbelief, that they saw a crane being used to hoist Robert’s body into the air before lowering it into truck, which was used to take his remains to the cemetery.
