Answer:  Things float in water if they are less dense than water, i.e. they weight less than the same volume of water. A dead body in water sinks when water enters into the lungs. Once submerged, the body stays underwater for sometime. Then there will be release of gases like methane, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulphide  due to the bacteria present. Because of this the upper portion of the body (torso), which contains the most bacteria, bloats more than the head and limbs. The most buoyant body parts rise first, leaving the head and limbs behind. As the density of the head is more than that of water, it remains immersed in water.

And there is one more reason which is that an alive person panics and starts to move his arms and legs, then unable to maintain a balance it drowns.
