Wyoming Is The Perfect Place To Become A FOSSIL!
Would you like to be known thousands or maybe even millions of years from now?
If you're in Wyoming, you've picked the right state, according to the lady in the video below.
Wyoming is one of the best places on the planet to find fossils.
So, how about we bury you in such a way that your bones can be found millions of years from now?
Here is how you do it.
Let's follow the instructions in the video below.
First -- DIE -- But die in a state like Wyoming. Your odds are better of being fossilized.
A state like Wyoming can be cold enough to freeze and mummify your body.
Make sure you are buried quickly. That will protect your body from the elements as well as scavenging.
She suggests you dig your own grave so you can be sure of that preservation.
But you must dig that grave in the right place.
Finally, bring your friends to DIE with you. That's because you are more likely to be found if you are with a large group. It's hard to find just one.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
1. Death and Burial:
Ideally, you'd die in a location where sediment is actively being deposited, such as near a river or, lake.
Rapid burial by sand, mud, or other sediments is crucial to prevent scavenging and decay.
Lack of oxygen, like in a bog or deep lake, can further slow down decomposition.
2. Permineralization (Turning to Stone):
Groundwater, rich in minerals, permeates the buried remains.
Minerals precipitate out of the water, filling the pores and replacing the original organic material, essentially turning the remains to stone.
This process can take a very long time, potentially thousands or even millions of years.
