Why do dead body float on water?

Dead bodies float on water much the same way living bodies do. And yes, living bodies do float on water. But if you panic and exhale, you will sink. IF you stay calm and keep your lungs inflated you will float. This is because of density. Anything less dense than water floats, and anything more dense than water sinks. Our human bodies have a density close to that of water and we WILL float if we keep our chest expanded and lungs filled with air. When people drown, their lungs are full of water and they sink. After a number of hours, up to a few days, gases from decomposition trapped inside their body make them buoyant and they will float. Then carrion eaters, blow flies, and other flesh eating creatures will puncture through their tissues, releasing the trapped gases, and causing them to sink again.


Do chicken bones float?

A dense heavy bone would not float and a skull without any internal contents through decomposition or insect infestation would not hold water or a probable air pocket and so would sink, light porous bone might float especially in sea water. If a skull had previously been buried and there had been a gradual filling of the cranial cavity with soil so that an air pocket was formed within the area above the ear holes and nasal hole, a skull might float, at least until the soil dissolved.
