Trying out a coffin while you're still alive can be a rather unnerving experience. But the Japanese seem to love it. They have a 'try-before-you-die' festival where people can lay down in coffins, try out funeral garments and even get a morbid makeover.
Called 'Shukatsu Festa,' the unique event has become very popular in recent years. Participants can choose their funeral outfit, put it on, slip into the flower-filled casket they like and have a picture taken. That way, they get to know exactly what they'll look like on the day of their funeral.
