  1. with fire


  2. Simply, crematories use a very large oven that heats everything enought to pretty much incinerate almost everything in the human body except for a few bone fragments, some teeth, some dental appliences, etc.

    If you want more information or a tour, I would call a local funeral home, ask them for information or a tour.  If they don't do it onsite, they will probably tell you where to go locally.

  3. Well, let me first say this, the answer "hi" gave is 100% incorrect.  Bodies are cremated one at a time in an oven called a retort, where the temperature reaches around 2000 degrees.  After the cremation, some larger bone fragments are left over that require pulverization.  They are then added to the other ashes.  A human body creates anywhere between 5-7 pounds of cremated remains, yet another inconsistency in the above answer.

    Under no circumstances are bodies cremated together, that is illegal, and the retort is cleaned after each cremation as best as possible.

  4. your cremated with fire but i heard that they cant just use one body because its not even enough dust to put in the jar so they put a whole bunch of other bodies in there and send them into your jar and make it seem like its just one body.
