Not sure about other countries, but I never heard that. Worked at a cemetery for 2 years. You are already past 'prep' stage when put in the coffin: Embalmed, cleaned out etc.
They only use them if your the type to 'pre-leak' before viewing.
By the time you are in the coffin there is nothing left to come out. Plus they have no care at all what you leak into the coffin once in the ground. A diaper would be a bit...pointless since every internal juice you have will start to leak out in days once buried, as stuff bloats and rots into a box...that will rot itself.

What I did there too: mow grass, dig graves, and lower people in after funerals. Since you can't really mow during a funeral people would not like that noise.
Aout twice a year dig people up. As people move and want to take their loved ones to the new state, or investigations, or such

We had one that was in the above ground mausoleum 'row' ones where its like 3 vaults tall, and 20 long we had to take out.
And we got the marble front off, and he was sooo fat when he died, there was like 12cm of what looked like cisco/frying lard filling the whole 'cube' floor.. We had to get a crowbar and 'pop' his sliding tray out of the...stuff, and then fight to get it out as it was glued in by that shit. 3 of us fighting to get a 1/2 rotten casket he was falling out of, out what felt like yellow colored wet wall spackle.
The casket didn't make it getting him out of there.

To make sure with an open coffin funeral, things don't start to smell bad.
My father and his coffin were lying on a refrigerator, and the lid was closed.

Might be where you are. At least here they only do it for people that are prone to preleak due to some particular situation.
As when they do embalming and draining anything that would have came out, either came out already or came out in the process as it's up to a week or more between death and the viewing.

My wife and kids know with no uncertainty do whatever is the cheapest. Put me in a trash can out by the road for all I care. I am dead, I will have not one opinion or concern
I've told them dont do any of it for me thinking I wanted/want something. Have a wake, a party, a dinner with everyone, or nothing. Whatever you need to do for you.

I used to down half a bottle of whisky every night, some nights only a few drops would be left at the bottom.
Wake up, as if from a coma, not remembering much if anything at all from last night. Sometimes I'd make a mess I don't even remember. Sometimes I'd say or do things I can't remember, and never in a million years would I even think of as sober. As if it was a psycho blackout where someone else took over. My life was literally some budget disco elysium.
This dragged on for a long time till one day I just got bored and sick of it.
Yeah Alcoholism is bad men, haven't had a drop for years and I ain't looking back.

A wake, a ceremony, a burial. It's for the ones who are left behind.
I have an insurance for dying, and when I die, I am dead.
I am not going to worry about my corpse.

One of my wife's friends (my girlfriend at the time, I was 19 and she was a year younger) died in a car accident. We did the grave digging, and after the funeral (when most people had cleared out), another friend of hers went into the cemetery toilet and slit his wrists. The ambulance got their before he bled out
Samoan funerals were interesting. When it comes time to fill in the grave, they have a tradition where they insist on filling it themselves (and most of them are built like brick walls), so those were very easy. On the other side of that... some of them are big people, and digging the hole to begin with was never fun. Sometimes double the width of an average person.
We used to bury farm animals too. If you think humans leak a lot of shit after they die, you should see what comes out of a cow or a horse as it's being pushed into a very large hole
Babies were easy. It took maybe 10 mins to dig a little whole but they still had to pay everyone the normal price (undertaker, cemetery, digger). A baby was one of the last ones I dug and I still remember everything about it, including the baby's name.
I really fucked my body doing that job. Jumping in and out of 7ft holes (and digging them to begin with) isn't great for your back. We used a backhoe most of the time, but sometimes the space is so small, all you can use is a shovel. At the time (2005), I went from $250 a week apprentice wages > $600 a week and I thought it was worth it. To this day I still suffer the physical consequences
Another thing - when people get buried on top of each other, years apart, they probably have some romantic picture of what that looks like. Two caskets on top of each other for eternity. But most of the time, by the time the 2nd person dies, all that's left are the casket handles as everything else rots away. Bones, sludge and little bits of metal. That's what you're being buried with.

i've heard of no one here being buried. Everyone i've known has been cremated. i bet it's like 90% here or more (didn't check though).
alcohol is garbage. tastes like crap + damages you in several ways. never understood people who likes the taste, i still remember when i was young and i drank it, it was always like the whole body protested. ugh. nothing masks the taste either.

Next time I go to the admin I'll make an organ donor thing.
Once I'm dead they can harvest what's still useful and have students toy with the rest.
I really couldn't give less of a shit what happens to my remains, frankly.

The only way I can 'like the taste' is if I can drink enough of it to not know what taste is anymore
Half of my family are orthodox Russians and I grew up watching them drink vodka by the bottle (I wish I was exaggerating). On the other half, many alcoholics, some of who died from it. I'm glad it tastes like shit

I like alcohol, beer, wine, scotch. But its an aquired taste and you should never drink alone or during the day and preferably only weekends.
"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

Donating my body or organs? I'm probably too much wasted.
