37 Tonne Headstone With Solar Powered Jukebox.
Gravestone fit for a traveller KING: Britain's 'biggest headstone' for bare-knuckle boxer father-of-nine 'Big Willy Collins' who died aged 49 is made from solid white marble, weighs 37 tonnes and even features a solar-powered jukebox
A 37-tonne headstone above the burial place of bare-knuckle boxer 'Big Willy Collins' (pictured top right) in Sheffield features statues of biblical figures, including Mary cradling Jesus Christ (pictured main), and a solar-powered jukebox (pictured bottom right), which can be connected to via bluetooth so visiting mourners can play their own music. One of 16 children, Willy was the patriarch of the Collins family, and is said to have doted on his children and grandchildren, and to have had around 400 nieces and nephews. He died aged 49 after collapsing with his family in Majorca in July 2020. His funeral was also a grand affair, as friends and family let off blue flares and travelled on quad bikes (pictured inset) in his honour. Meanwhile his cortege was led by people in velvet suits and crowns while a white funeral carriage - containing his gold casket - was pulled by six plumed horses wearing yellow and blue feathers (pictured bottom left).
