looking over your left shoulder at the new moon
One of the careless and foolish things Huck does is pretending to be dead after escaping from his father. This act puts him in danger and causes unnecessary worry for those who care about him.
There is never a reference to how he actually died in the novel. Jim and Huck just find a body in the house on the river. (Important to note that Jim turns Huck away from the body, as a way to protect him!)
In Mark Twain's novel "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," Huck's father, Pap Finn, is abusive and is revealed to have died in a cabin when it floats away during a flood. Huck discovers his father's body inside.
They were hoping the firing of the cannon would bring Huck's body to the surface of the river.
because he knows
a dead body
Huck easily gave away all of his money to Judge Thatcher and then smashed everything that he and his father owned in order to make it look as if robbers had come and murdered Huck.
A piece of a steamboat almost hits Huck while the boat is searching for his body in Chapter eight of Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn." Huck manages to stay underwater long enough to avoid being hit.
Huck knows the drowned body is not his pap because he sees Pap's dead body in a floating house during a storm, and later witnesses the dead body being buried, confirming it is his pap.
Jim and Huck find the house to be a mess, and find whiskey, playing cards, and obscene graffiti (symbolizing human vices). Most importantly, they find the body of Huck's murdered father, who was shot in the back. Jim makes sure Huck doesn't see his face, so Huck doesn't know that his father was killed.

Huck was scared breathless when he saw a dead man's body with a gruesome wound on the wrecked steamboat. The sight of the violence and death was overwhelming for him.
