Video Family Embraces Viral Sweet Salad Trend
On their way to the movies, a Georgia family stopped to pick up some candy and make their own sweet salad in the car — only to have it turn into a sticky mess. Find out what happened!
The cheerful man who once joked about wanting a Snickers-themed coffin has had his wish come true.
Paul Broom, 55, from England, was recently buried in a box designed to look like the brand's chocolate bar, which he requested in his will, SWNS news agency reports.
Relatives said Broom was known for his “wit and playful sense of humour.”
Before his death, Broom often joked that he wanted his coffin to be shaped like a Snickers bar – a wish his family attempted to fulfill during his final farewell, according to SWNS.
Broom's family wanted to honor his memory in a way that reflected his personality, so they made a coffin resembling a Snickers bar.

It featured the phrase “I'm crazy” – a tribute to Broom's playful nature.
“Paul's family told us he was one of life's true heroes and his farewell needed to reflect that,” funeral director Ali Leggo told SWNS.
“His wit and sense of humour touched many, and the coffin became a fitting memorial to his unique personality.”
The coffin also featured the Crystal Palace Football Club logo.

Broome was a devoted fan of the English football club, amassing a collection of more than 40 shirts and taking his brothers to matches at Selhurst Park.
As a farewell, the funeral procession passed Broome's beloved cafe in Bognor Regis.
Friends wearing his signature T-shirts gathered outside and applauded as he set out on his final journey, SWNS reported.
“The family received nothing but positive feedback from those in attendance, with many commenting that the personal moments made the service a true celebration of Paul's life,” Leggo said.
