He unties the parachute from the pilot. Than the pilot is blown by the wind into the surf. Then, as is Simon's body, it is carried out to sea by the
tides, but not before it again terrifies the boys.
In "The Lord of Flies", Simon finds the body of the dead paratrooper and becomes sick at the smell of the rotting corpse. He frees the parachute line and runs to tell the others about the body, but they mistake him for the beast and beat him to death.
Simon.

Simon discovered a dead body on one of his walks through the forest. He immediately called the police to report the finding and has been assisting with the investigation ever since. He is not involved in the death in any way.

Simon's death is ironic because he is on his way to tell the rest of the boys that the beast on the mountain top is simply the dead body of a man when he himself is mistaken for the beast and is savagely beaten to death.
Simon finds the truth about the beast: that it is just a dead paratrooper caught in the trees, who was mistaken for a monster by the boys due to the darkness and their fear. However, upon attempting to share this revelation with the other boys, he is tragically mistaken for the beast and killed in a frenzied moment of group hysteria.
In Lord of the Flies Chapter 9, Simon discovers that the figure on the mountainside is the dead parachutist. He frees the parachutist's lines from the rocks to allow the body to be taken away by the tide.

Simon discovers that the apelike beast the boys fear is actually the rotting corpse of a dead paratrooper, whose body has become entangled in the rocks and vines on the mountain.
