Did my first removal with my dad when I was 13. Now I’m 30 and am part owner of 2 funeral homes. Such a rewarding and fulfilling job

I recently lost my mum on sept 12 her funeral. If it hadn't been for people like these, i don't know how we would have coped. Thank you from the bottom of our heartsfor what you do.

I am 19 and I am an undertaker and the narrator should not be calling the deceased IT he should say THEM as they are still a person

The young lady in this film I feel is going to do quite well in future.

As a 22 year old looking to go to school for my Funeral Services Diploma, this documentary only made me more certain and excited to follow this dream. Being with people during some of the most difficult times in their lives, and doing everything possible to make everything go smoothly for them is something I consider to be a privilege.

Respect to all the people in the funeral industry

When my mum passed last September, the funeral services I used were amazing. The staff couldn’t have been any better/nicer and some of them were young women. Such a compassionate, caring and supportive profession.

The real class, respect and dignity shown by these mature youngsters.

I work in the Death Care industry - nothing is more gratifying than a thankful family. It’s truly a wonderful feeling knowing you are doing your best to help someone in their darkest hours, feel just a bit less alone and slightly better about the situation. I cannot wait to pursue it further 🖤

This is so cool. On social media I see a lot of older death care workers who discourage people from joining the industry. Seeing this level of passion and positivity for the profession is amazing!

I'm proud of these young people for doing what they are doing. You can tell they are a very caring bunch of people too, and that's rare, especially in young ones today. I hope they know how special they are for doing what they are doing. I'm not sure if it's something I could do. But I applaud them for doing so.

The 25 year old one is very professional! I was very impressed!!! 😳

The 17 year old is more mature than I am, and I'm 25.

Respect to people who can do such a profession. I sure as fuck couldn't cope. I'd probably breakdown doing this.

I wish schools here would allow for this. I wanted to be a Mortician from a young age, but as I grew older, feared blood and purge (mainly vomit). Had I started young, I feel like I would've become used to it. Even a Trocar makes me feel faint. Now I just live vicariously through others, and love watching docus like this. Thank you for sharing; this was really neat to watch!

Why do I come across such videos at night?

This was incredible. I wish they had programs like these in the USA, that were more widely available to enroll in. I would have jumped at the chance to earn a degree in undertaking.

I'm 15, and I'd really like to be an undertaker. I've been told I'm a very quiet and helpful person.

Luke, I am so pleased and proud that you are making your own way and supporting Youngertakers ❤ Just a quick favour to ask ... page a little more slowly in front of the hearse please 🙏 xx

I am lucky enough to live within close proximity of a college with a really good mortuary science program and I'm currently working on my GE for the program. Seeing other 17 year olds working in the industry is so motivational. Much like Luke, my long-term goal is to open a funeral home. I've faced much backlash and harsh criticism from family, trying to steer me off the mortuary path.I hope that eventually when those who have criticized me find themselves dealing with the loss of a loved one, they will turn to me. I know exactly what I want, and I'm determined to reach my goals.

Very interesting! On my way in at age 46, they need all ages. As long as you are an empathic, intelligent, calm and kind hearted person. I've got to say that I envy that cool outfit that the young boss wore! So stylish!

it might be normal procedure but i found the bowing of the heads while the body arrived very touching. it was such a simple but beautiful gesture.

Thank you to the younger takers this profession is dying off we need you guys to uphold the honor of our deceased family members and keep the honor compassion and integrity in this business. Good job guys!

At 17, I was as silly as could be. Boys, partying. Funerals svcs were the very last thing on my mind, as teenagers, we believe we are invincible. She is very professional and mature for her age. I believe she will open her own franchise, and go far into her future. This is what she wants 2 do, and I wish her the best, from across the pond. The deceased & loved ones will b in gd hands, I'm sure.

I could not handle working this profession because I'm an emotional person.

These young people are remarkable. I hope they're still doing well in their chosen careers.

It's so nice to see such young people have such respect for death and other people. Great futures ahead.

When my brothers passed away (within 2 years of eachother) the funeral home that dealt with them and our family were absolutely amazing, people who work in the death industry get a bad rep but they are normal people who care for those on there last journey, would like to be a part of this industry but due to health problems can't work

I also have been in the funeral business and consider it a ministry and a pleasure to serve families during this difficult time. Keep up the good work!!! Blessings to you!!!

I have respect for people that do this profession

13:15 scared the living shit out of me

Respect to all the undertakers, takes a strong person to do that job!

UK funerals are way different than here in the United States. Our laws make embalming mandatory for anyone wanting a open casket funeral, caskets are different, there is a police escort from the funeral home to church and the cemetery. It’s nice to see different customs.

Luke looks Very Very smart in His Funeral Uniform and he Looks Great in his Black Top Hat

Ellie is lovely.

I'm a 15 year old boy, and I wanna be an undertaker when I'm older. Unfortunately, I don't think I'm gonna get good grades at school, but I'm gonna Hella try to get the job. I've saw dead bodies before, and to me they're just a shell and the soul has gone to heaven. I really wanna work as an undertaker, because it's a big Dream for me to go for, and it's also something I'm very passionate about doing ❤️

It's lovely to see that there are other young people like myself who are passionate about their work.

This could totally be a show!

I can see their Dedication to this Especially Being Young and your job is like this, You gotta be Emotionally, Mentally and Spiritually prepared for all this..and Most Importantly when dealing with the Grief of the Deceased's Family

Luke is so cute, handsome,fine. I've never seen an undertaker as polished as him. God bless him.

I'm also in deathcare. People ask how can I do it? My answer is love.

I LOVE this. I wish I had an opportunity like that. I think these two kids will do well.

This is brilliant, seeing such young people carrying out this job in a mature and passionate way! ❤️

Grateful that there are young people out there who can mentally deal with a job like this. I personally couldn’t do it because of how badly it affects me to attend a funeral even if the deceased isn’t someone who was very close to me, it’s just the whole atmosphere where people are crying then I start crying and so on. But when my adoptive grandmother died shortly before I turned 14, I did take a big part in planning her funeral, and it was the same when my biological grandmother passed away almost 8 years ago now, I pretty much took charge with picking the casket and flowers and such, something that did take a lot of strain off from mum when my adoptive grandmother died, and also from mum and my uncle when my biological grandmother died. I was also with both my grandmothers when they passed, so in other words, yes, I held a dying persons hand and saw death before I even turned 14, and yes, I did stay at the nursing home with my adoptive grandmother against the staff’s advice because they thought I was too young. But it felt right for me to be there, so I stayed and I have always been very grateful that I did make that choice, and that I could be with both my grandmothers until the very end of their earthly life. But even with my experiences, I just don’t deal with grief well at all, and I have this deep rooted anxiety around losing loved ones, and tears are more contagious for me than yawns are so I could just never mentally manage to work in the industry, I’m just too emotional... But yeah, it’s so good that there are people out there, also young people, who can shoulder this burden of working in an industry that deals with this grief and anxiety laden part of life, and who are there for families at their most difficult times. It means so much for a grieving family to have that proper send off for a deceased loved one, and it’s a very important part of the grieving process.

just because they are young doesn't mean they can't take on serious subjects such as death it's very honorable what they do in my opinion.

she loves her job because it gives her a sense of being special/unique. millennials need that and it's good, because somebody needs to do jobs like that. it's a win win

I simply love these brave young people❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️....

Making the body sound a sleep is a great idea. Love this.

I grew up in a similar industry (Making gravestones) at my families business. It definately makes you view the end of life in a different way than your friends.

What a wonderful documentary, insane amount of respect for the people in this industry, truly outstanding professionalism on all accounts, does anyone know the name of the beautiful song around 17 mins in?

All of them are very inspirational. Never knew I'd feel this interested in being an undertaker. I'd love to be a part of all these.

THANK YOU for all that you do! Stunningly excellent inside look at your daily work!

Itd be my dream to work within the Funeral care industry. Since my own dad passed, I've been really passionate about caring for the families of the deceased and for the bodies who housed the wonderful people who are no longer with us. What an honor to be able to help people through some of their darkest times. Its such a dignified career and definitely vocational.

This was bloody brilliant!

Funeral service is an honorable profession and many say a calling .

Makes me kinda sad as that’s the same crematorium as my grandads. Brings back mixed memories

There's people out there dying for your job! Keep up the good work..

God Bless these wonderful, young, caring people.🙏🏼♥️🕊

Don’t be sceptic about life after death. The mere fact that these ppl have the ability to do these jobs is a supernatural or god given ability to offer something to the world. I believe we are all given gifts to offer each other.

Kudos to the school system and advisors for THINKING OUTTA da BOX !! (maybe not so far outta da box/coffin)

Currently going through the recruitment stages with a company wish me luck!

That Luke's like a cocky showman

Funeral homes and death though uncertain creep me out so definitely not my calling but I respect everyone of you willing to take on the challenge. Y’all don’t get enough credit for this. ✊🏿

I wish Luke to be really successful...he is such a great businessman...i love his respect to the dead and family...GOD BLESS YOU LUKE

A very uplifting document. Life and death, respect always. Good luck to all of you. And May God bless you at your beautiful, heart felt Jobs.

These guys are a credit to our country :)

It takes unique and caring people to perform within this industry. While most are in it for the money, it is we the consumer that has to look for those individuals in business that are in it for the true compassion and love in truly caring for our deceased loved ones!

Bless them all for doing this hard job - they deserve the world honestly

I'm in the US. I'm 34 and work in the funeral industry. Hands down, the best choice I have ever made.

I live in the states and I must say I am truly happy to see youngsters being self motivated about there future although I believe that those values have been instilled in them by there patients at a young age and I can understand that because my parents did the same to my siblings and I. Great job kids 👍🏼 excellent!

I wish this was longer!

Interesting material!!

At least these kids are respectful of the dead.

And the the owner's style is splendid.

Ben looked traumatized at 7:05 haha

Enjoyed this thank you,,

Its really refreshing to see such young people that are motivated and career driven. Especially with today's youth, they expect everything to be handed to them and no hard work. Good job youngertakers!!! Keep up the good work!!!

0:41 What a delightful young lady !!

All my life I was afraid to die. Well, we lost our 23 yr daughter in a car accident and I told my husband to not be sorry about me dying,cause Im ready .

I always wanted to do this job but as a mother I couldn't handle the funerals of babies and children,ive lost 3 of my own babies and the pain is unreal I couldn't do it,just couldn't.

I m so proude over them!!!🤩👏😎✨👌🙏🕯️⚰️🪦

I was watching this after when I found out one of the staff members from my old high sadly passed away from covid 😞 rip mrs gunshaw

Thank you for your kind Service 🙏 to those that have lost loved ones to death and thank you for bringing dignity to death ❤❤❤

They're really good looking and smart people... Good to see their energetic skills

Zestful experience, am glad to make a turnaround🙌🙆

Always wanted to get in to this work never got my dream job congratulations

this is a career that is guaranteed not to disappear

Amazing....

Hearing Childish Gambino halfway through this was wild Jesus Christ 😭

Takes a special person to do this job

With lack of good jobs apprenticeships are very successful and should be increased(speaking from experience) plus A.W.Lymn was very good when dealing with a death in my family also.

Kathryn is a Nurse and she often dealt with the Dead. She told me she would talk to the person and tell them what she was doing to them to prepare them for their family when they came to pick them up.

It's wonderful to see respect and pride in your career. So many of the younger generation have no ambition in what they do. Thank you for sharing this documentary with me.

I wonder how they handle the mental and emotional stress of the job.

I know it sounds bad but it's a reliable job like your never going to run out of customers 😬

Luke is very smooth

That's Bramcote Cremorturium And I recognized that you Guys Were Driving Through Bramcote Hills

I'm 24 and couldn't do this. Even if I was their age, I wouldn't think of such a thing.

Muito bom.amei. nossa fora do Brasil tudo é muito lindo. Nosso setor funerário está longe de alcançar :(

You never have to worry about your business ever going under, !
