Weird Documentary Short Introduces Us To The World of Competitive Gravedigging

Did you know that competitive gravedigging was a real thing!? Yeah, neither did I until I came across this documentary shot called The Best Gravediggers in the World. The doc introduces to this world and some of the best gravediggers that fill it. I've gotta say, it's kind of weird that this actually exists! 

In the industrial town of Trenčín, Slovakia, a small family-run funeral home has taken their grave-digging contest international. Here, teams of gravediggers from throughout Europe descend with shovels and hoes to see who can create the best eternal resting places, in the least amount of time.

Gravedigging may be an unusual and morbid occupation, but someone's gotta do it! 

Here lies a film about an international grave-digging competition. In the industrial town of Trenčín, Slovakia, a small family-run funeral home has taken their grave-digging contest international. Here, teams of gravediggers from throughout Europe descend with shovels and hoes to see who can create the best eternal resting places, in the least amount of time. Happy Halloween!
