Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Pallbearer memes have taken social media by storm. Coffin carrying pallbearers dancers videos have gone viral on social media. The dancers are hired during funerals to ease the pain of mourning for loved ones in Ghana. They have become popular across the world.

Who are the coffin carrying dancers?

The coffin carrying dancer or pallbearers come from Ghana.

These coffin carrying dancers are known as Ghanaian Dancing Pallbearers. They are hired for the purposes of cheering up mourners who gather to bury their loved ones. They are a form of entertainment to the mourners. It is however against the African tradition to celebrate during the funeral but the coffin carrying pallbearers have changed the norm.

Who is the leader of the dancing coffin carrying members?

Benjamin Aidoo is the leader of the dancers and he says he decided to do choreography lessons after he identified his market niche, pallbearer dancing. Aidoo says he committed to training and buying good outfits for his employees to make sure they appeal to the public.

For mourners wanting a more upbeat funeral, the troupe turns coffin carrying to a performance. “I decided to add choreography to it so if a client comes to our premises we just ask the client if the want it solemn or do you want a bit of a display, or you want some choreography on it? They just ask and we do it,” said Aidoo, the leader of the group during an interview with BBC

“These people when they take your beloved ones to the final resting place, they also dance so i decided to give my mother a dancing trip to her maker,” said one of the customers.

Benjamin has employed over 100 young men and women and he says its a way of creating employment to the youth. He also invests heavily in the outfits of the team. Troupes like these are growing in Ghana and other parts of Africa as funerals are an important occasion in the African culture.

People around the world are creating memes using the pall bears videos and pictures in stories that are associated with death or severe injuries.
