Two women filmed twerking over dead friend’s coffin

The video, named ‘When Brayan dies’, shows a brunette woman twerking over a coffin while being encouraged by a group of people surrounding her.

The group can be seen lifting her skirt up and slapping her bottom before slapping the coffin lid.

Another woman is then seen getting up on to the coffin and then starts twerking over it.

Water is poured over the dancing women and the clothes appear to become see-through.

The video has been viewed more than 19 million times since it was posted on the Facebook page of university student of Memes Universitarios UDC in the city of Popayan in Colombia.

Though the clip’s location is unknown, it is thought to have been recorded in Central America or the Caribbean.

Many people have criticised the women and accused them of having a lack of respect for the dead.

One man wrote: ‘I cannot believe it, it is the most cynical thing that I have ever seen.

‘It is inhuman, disgusting and it shows a lack of respect.’
