Badass To The End: How Russian Gangsters Are Buried

So you think that America does it bigger and better in all things ostentatious? Take a look at these tombstones of former members of the Russian Mafia and you’ll realize that there’s nothing like these in good, old U.S. of A.

These have got to be the most pimpin’ tombstones I’ve ever seen. Leave it to the Russian mafia to be badass even in death.

This man believed that one must live large even from beyond the grave.

It’s not everyday you get to see a tombstone with a smiling picture of the dead person.

If you’ve seen the movie Reservoir Dogs, you’ll get the idea.

His car got its own tombstone!

They almost look alive here…

Gangster for eternity…

They are in the running for the best dressed in the cemetery.

More lifelike images…

This boss is buried with his loyal crew.

Full color tombstone is the way to go.

They could have used a nicer car for this mural.

He stands tall among the other dead gangsters.

Look at the detail on those accessories.

Do they have a thing for shabby-looking cars to be immortalized?

Really, another car with its own tombstone.

They like to live large, even in tombstones.

He must have really loved that car.

Classic gangster look. Cigarette, coffee, and old model burner phones.

Product placement in tombstones. Why the hell not?

We hope his legs were not so short in real life.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who noticed, but boy, these gangsters must have been really attached to their cars. It’s almost like those cars were part of the family.
