The world said goodbye to the late Prince Philip.
The husband of Queen Elizabeth II, known for his humor, said goodbye with a wink.
London - A few weeks before his 100th birthday, Prince Philip, Queen Elizabeth's husband, died.
The mourning is still great worldwide and his funeral last Saturday (April 17th) was watched by many people in front of the TV.
Even Prince Harry traveled from his adopted home USA and surprised after the scandalous interview with Oprah Winfrey by an intimate moment with his brother Prince William.
Philips' funeral service has been planned for 20 years - and he has helped shape it.
From the specially designed hearse to the choice of music: Everything was discussed with him during his lifetime.
He kept his humorous personality to the end - and finally said goodbye at his funeral with a wink in the form of a surprising prank.
Prince Philip: Little prank at funeral - he had planned this fun himself beforehand
His funeral ended with a unique moment and in a special way that is typical of him.
As

reports, when Philip's coffin was lowered into the family vault in St. George Chapel, a different melody was played than usual.
It was not only blown for a tattoo, but a military tune was played, which usually calls for people to prepare for battle.

As a well-known ritual, this tune is often played at a Navy funeral, but it is rather unusual for a royal funeral.
It can therefore also be understood as a wink from Prince Philip when the once energetic Duke of Edinburgh calls for action at a moment when it is actually about the end of life.
Prince Philip: Will there be reconciliation between his grandchildren after his funeral?
While the whole world said goodbye to the Queen's husband, his two grandchildren Prince Harry and Prince William were always in the public eye.
Would the funeral also be a chance for reconciliation between the two of them?
According to rumors, however, Prince Harry is said to have flown back to his pregnant wife Meghan Markle and son Archie last Monday (April 19).
