She’s A Mortician Talking About 5 Interesting Things You Can Find After Someone Gets Cremated
I’m sure you have heard about Lauren; she’s a popular mortician on TikTok who goes by @laurenthemortician.
She’s one of my favorite content creators, as I think she has a lot of intriguing things to say or shed light on, given her unique career.
In a video Lauren did with the Travel Channel, she opens up about 5 very surprising and interesting things you can find after someone gets cremated.
“After cremation, some unexpected things can be found among a person’s ashes,” Lauren explains.
The first thing on Lauren’s list? Implants! Lauren says that sometimes chest implants cremate, but on occasion, that doesn’t happen, and it leaves behind a sticky mess. When that happens, Lauren removes the implants and disposes of them in medical waste.
The second thing is surgical instruments. Lauren points out that if you happen to pass away during a medical procedure, often, doctors won’t take the clamps or scissors out of you. They just leave them in.
In that event, Lauren removes the instruments when the cremation process is complete.
Cellphones and jewelry come in at number three, as sometimes, it slips a medical examiner’s mind to go through the back pockets of people.
Lauren maintains that a good crematory technician will ensure that someone’s pockets and hands are checked before moving ahead.

Metal joints and hips are number four, and Lauren admits this is a super common thing to witness. These metal parts are put into a recycling bin that gets picked up every couple of months.
Lauren adds that bone can fuse to the metal, and if that happens, she does her best to separate that all out.
The final thing on the list is pacemakers. Lauren maintains that pacemakers should be removed prior to cremation, but morticians can forget to do this or not even see them. Apparently, they explode when they reach a certain temperature.
Lauren concludes her video by asking which item on the list you found most shocking. What do you think?
