THE family of a man shot 15 times held a bizarre funeral where he was propped up in a chair in their living room with his eyes open.
Grisly footage of Fernando de Jesus Diaz Beato, 26, emerged online after the Puerto Rican's murder earlier this month.
He can be seen clad in designer gear while sitting in the chair with his legs crossed.
In his hand, the dead man holds a cigarette while his eyes have spookily been left open.
In the video released by LiveLeak, friends and family crowd around to say their final goodbyes to Fernando.
