    Mass Graves (This Is A Deep Episode)

    According to estimates, roughly 108 billion bodies are buried around the planet. This number includes estimates from ancient people up to the last few years. There was a bunch of math involved in getting to this number, but we won't bore you. Most people are buried alone. They can occasionally be entered with a loved one, but we're generally buried alone. There are, however, instances of large amounts of people being buried together. Thanks for listening. Want more of the show?
