How do you tell when an egg is bad?

I worked in a restaurant and the way we determined if an egg was good was to give it a spin. A bad egg will fall on its side. Another way to tell if an egg is good or bad is to get a medium sized bowl of water and then you put the eggs in the water. If the egg floats it's bad. If it sinks and balances on the bottom of itself it's ok. If it sinks and lays on it's side it's really good. Those are the best kind of eggs.

Why fresh egg sinks in water?

Though each egg contains a small air space, it is not usually big enough to act like a float, so the egg sinks. A bad egg will produce gases as the egg decomposes inside the shell. As these gases take on a larger volume, so the egg will float.
