A very odd turn of events has led to a distraught man MARRYING the ashes of his girlfriend after being so upset by her death.
The man, known by the name Mr Lai, had a wedding in Hsinchu village, Taiwan, along with a farewell ceremony with their friends and family. It is thought he wanted to show his commitment to the woman even after she was dead - so married her ashes.
The clip shows the ceremony, which shows Mr Lai clutching his wifes urn (vase containing the ashes) dressed with incense as ceremony music plays.The video is clearly filled with emotion, as Mr Lai and the people attending the ceremony appear to be wiping away tears during the proceedings.
The clip ends with Mr Lai getting into a wedding car and driving off.
Ghost marriages are not that uncommon in Asia, where a dying man marries a female corpse to keep him happy into the afterlife.
However, dressing an urn in a wedding dress and having a ceremony like this one is slightly more unheard of.
