"Man-Made" Diamonds - Gross or Cool? email this discussion to a friend?

mdoucet904 (22)   ranked 18,853 out of 38,017 in life3 months ago

I was watching a show on TV called "Manswers". They said that there is a company that can make diamonds out of human remains. I thought it sounded so super cool that I researched it. It's True!

The company is call Life Gem and they can take the ashes of your loved one or even a pet and turn it into a diamond. The diamonds are actually better quality and worth more than mined diamonds.

I think it's the coolest thing I've ever heard of! What a great momento to leave your children. My friends, however, think it's gross. So, I'm coming to my MyLotters...What do you think? Gross or Cool?

I am not sure about this. Its quite interesting and new for me. But I surely would not do it, turning my love one into diamonds. What if it slips and disappear. lol..

And what if there are spirit of the dead one haunting the diamond, and anyone who kept it will doom. HAHAH...too much movies I guess!

Its cool and gross at the same time. I can't make up my mind. thumbupthumbdownthumbup

I can imagine one of my grandchildren or great great grandchildren giving a ring to a future wife. Here is the conversation I envision:

The future wife: "Oh, Wow, This was your Grandmother's"

My future family member: "No, I said this is my Grandmother and if we break up and you don't give it back, she's going to haunt you."


Seriously, for so long, we've only had two options:

Burial or Cremation

This is too cool.

Maybe this type of issue can make up a movie. lol..So I agree with you, it is cool. But still I don't want to end up being a thing after I died. Guess, I feel I don't want to be anyone possession except God.

Interesting topic. Yay for you!thumbup

I think the concept of this sounds pretty cool at first until you really think about it. I'm all for having keepsakes of your loved ones, but having their remains actually put into a diamond is a little beyond me.

The last thing I want after I die is to be burned and then consolidated into a little rock and toted around for my family to show off. I want them to remember me for the memories that we shared together and I want them to keep things that are special to them because the elicit those memories. I want them to remember me for the right reasons and to carry me in their heart. If I've lived right, they won't need to put me in a diamond for closure.

Wow, only a genius human can do that. Really I can't about that. It's very very cool.

LOL welcome to mylot, what you speak about i have never heard or reads, it is on TV? just imaginary but every body love diamonds, because of the sparkle and lusture, bur real diamonds are so costly, beyond reach of an average man like me lol, most of the so called diamond rings and jewelry does not have the real thing, they have American diamond, it is glass only.
Thank you so much for this nice discussion. happy keep sharing, happy posting, have a great day, cheersrasp
