SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico -- A funeral home in Puerto Rico that made international headlines two years ago is at it again. Marin Funeral Home has embalmed the body of a young man and put the corpse atop a motorcycle in a hunched-over racing position. The body wears a black cap, black sunglasses and a long-sleeved black T-shirt.

Local television station WAPA says the unidentified 22-year-old shooting victim will be buried Wednesday.

Calls to the funeral home were not returned Tuesday.

Two years ago, the funeral home embalmed a 24-year-old man and kept the body standing upright for during a three-day wake.

Well, a little weird, but not that much weirder than being made up, dressed in a suit, and put in a comfy looking casket for people to look at.

The creepiest part of the second set of photos is the Yankees cap. *shudder*

yeah but being put in a casket make everyone feel they are resting in peace. where as one guy is riding a motorcycle and the other guy is standing like he's going to jack someone.
