An Icelandic bishop in the 13th century was buried in a stone coffin. When they opened it to study it, it took four men just to remove the lid. The whole thing weighs 730 kg (1,606 lbs), and that’s without the body.
A three-piece band? When one of my dad’s parishioners died, a relative offered to play a musical offering. My dad suggested the gentleman play his accordion at the reception afterwards.
