  I am picturing new tube coffins. Holes dug with an auger. Like fence posts. >
  
  You can also dig a really deep hole like when pouring concrete for stability of buildings. Lots of people would fit down one of those. >
  
  Now I am thinking about the mafia and how many people are in the stability parts of buildings. >
  
  Also a mafia trope to burry a body under a dead animal so the grave just looks like someone buried their pet >
  
  We could leave heads above ground and save on tombstones too! >
  
  Just tattoo a name and dates on there, people will get the gist of it >
  
  That is true but it will not make sense. 
  The main reason to bury people as opposed to let’s say burning them is due to ritual reasons. The final resting place must be in a resting position. This means laying down as opposed to standing. >
  
  I unno. In denmark we pay for graveyards at churches so we can visit them and once you stop paying they are dug out and yeeted to make space for someone who will.
  Edit: more correct answer is that denmark uses wooden coffins and the rental is only for 20 years (10 years for urns} . At which point the corpse and coffin is gone and they crush the gravestone to use elsewhere, and after a period of time from that they decide to use it again. >
  
  Hvor bliver de smidt hen? >
  
  Someone better not make me standup for eternity or I’m coming back for them >
  
  Eternity? Couple hundred years max and you won't be standing anymore no worries. >
  
  I think so long as they face east, it aligns with most of the religions. Plus it would make the rapture easier, just like a torpedo tube. >
  
  It’s the fast track to the deities! >
  
  Not really. If you're going to dig each grave deep enough to bury someone vertically, you could bury just as many people in the same space by digging the grave that deep and stacking them. >
  
  Hard to place tombstones that way though. >
  
  Totem pole style, in order of hole placement? >
  
  Do you have to sign out on a sheet in order to make sure no other families are there at the same time? >
  
  But then funeral home and grave services wouldn't be able to charge as much!

  It’s the only business that can’t fail though right? >
