- A 25-year-old Russian lady was recently buried in the most odd way

- Late Rita Shameeva, during her lifetime, was a known phone addict

- After dying by an unknown cause, she was buried under a tombstone shaped like her favourite iPhone

It's common practice to send someone to the after life, attaching with them, something they most loved on earth. NAIJ.com earlier shared weird photos of a young man who was laid-in-state on a throne because his attitude was apparently kingly to his loved ones.

Just recently, photos from the grave side of a 25-year-old lady identified as Rita Shameeva went viral. During her lifetime, the Russian lady was known to be a phone addict. Unfortunately her life was caught short by an unknown cause, sending her to an early grave.

However, her grieving dad, Rais Shameev, thought to do something special for her and decided to erect a five-foot high iphone which was her favourite as her gravestone. Her burial plot which is located in oil-rich city known as Ufa in Russia stands out tall and bizarre.

The five-foot high monument is made of black basalt and bears the Apple symbol on the reverse, and a picture of Shameeva on the front.

Very little is known about the deceased except that she loved her phone, travelled a lot and had friends in Germany.

The tombstone towers above other gravestones in the Yuzhnoye cemetery, and also has a QR code on the base and was added by her dad, two years after her passing in 2016.
