Here’s where it gets weird. Ozzy did have a fake funeral in 2019. It was for a documentary called The Nine Lives of Ozzy Osbourne.
In the film, he attended his own memorial service. He watched a dummy version of himself get cremated in a staged ceremony. It was dark. It was hilarious.
The fake Ozzy was placed in a coffin. They slid him into an industrial furnace. Poof. Gone.
Of course, the real Ozzy hopped out of a limo after. Looked at the fake ashes. Probably muttered, “Sharon, what’s for dinner?”

So, technically, a fake Ozzy was cremated on camera. Does that count? No. But it’s a great story.
The "Buried Alive" Possibility
Could Ozzy be buried instead? Listen, the man loves vibes. A grave is so permanent. So quiet.
He’s said in interviews he doesn’t want to be buried underground. Too claustrophobic. Even for a guy who spent decades in a Black Sabbath tour bus.
What about a mausoleum? A glorious tomb with a velvet curtain and a disco ball? Maybe. But Ozzy’s more of a “scatter me in the ocean” kind of guy.
Let’s not forget: he has Parkinson’s disease. He’s talked about death a lot lately. He’s open, dark, and weirdly cheerful about it.
