I’m a mortician — here’s what we do with breast implants after someone diesBy Andrew Court

They’re death-defying assets.
An Arkansas mortician has revealed that he does not remove silicone breast implants after a person dies, even though they don’t decompose alongside other parts of the body.
Gerald Ledford made the surprising claim in a viral TikTok clip about the afterlife of implants, which was spurred by a curious follower.
“If a female has breast implants, are they removed or will the body decompose, becoming a skeleton with fake boobs?” the follower asked, prompting him to record a video response that has clocked up more than 380,000 views.
“So they’re not removed,” Ledford responded. “They’re yours — you bought them or somebody bought them for you. You’re taking them with you to the grave.”
