Question

why does death body float on water????​

Answer 1

Answer:

A cadaver in the water starts to sink as soon as the air in its lungs is replaced with water. Once submerged, the body stays underwater until the bacteria in the gut and chest cavity produce enough gas—methane, hydrogen sulfide, and carbon dioxide—to float it to the surface like a balloon

Most of the dead bodies float like in the above picture , but there are also exceptions. The smaller the hands and legs are, then the more likely it is for the corpse to float facing up. If a body stays on the surface of the water for a long time then it will release the gas that been built up and then it will sink into the water once again. Decomposition continues underwater and then more and more gas is collected and the body may start floating again. This is also known as a “re-float” in terms of rescue workers.
