Well both a dead body and living one floats on top of water. But the more you panic, the faster you will sink. If you were to stay calm and relax, you will have no problem with floating on top of water....
this is because of density. Anything less dense than water will float and anything more dense than water will sink. Our bodies(YOU CAN BE 600LBS) have a density less than water....so we will definitely float.
so if u find yourself "drowning", just stay calm and let human nature take it's course:)

Why did dead body float on water?
A dead body can float on water due to the gases produced during decomposition. As the body breaks down, the gases fill the body cavities, causing it to become less dense and allowing it to float. Other factors such as body composition and water temperature can also play a role in body buoyancy.
How do you know when a goo alien alive?
put your alien in a bowl of cold water if it floats its alive and if it doesnt float and it sinks its dead
Why the dead body float on water?
Many gases produce in body of human. When the man die the water enter the human body and there is no way for air to diffuse out of the human body .As the gasesare lighter so they try to diffuse out of the water due to this the dead body floats on water
Why do a dead body floats in water even it is heavier than the living body?
A dead body can float in water due to postmortem changes like the accumulation of gases produced during decomposition, which increase buoyancy. Additionally, the body may have a different distribution of weight and density in water compared to when alive.
Why a man can float in a dead sea?
because it has so much salt in it that it enables the body to float instead of sinking in the water
Body of water contains so much salt that people can float on it?
The Dead Sea.
Why a dead body float with its head a merged in water?
Gases build up in a decomposing body in water and makes it float, but the head remains heavy and so tends to sink just below the water level.
Do dead bodies float on water because of decomposition?
Sort of, its the gasses produced by those bacteria that makes it float.
Who will sink a dead body or an alive person?
Normally a body will sink if the person is dead and has no air in their lungs to keep the body boyant. Although after some time gases accumilate inside the body cavity due to decomposition and the body will float again.
Will dead body float in seawater?
Dead body(s) will float in seawater [at least dead animal body(s) do]. ... visualize that once the body begins to decompose bacterial gases will cause the body to float to the surface ... imagine that body(s) which end up in deep water (thereby very cold water) do not experience bacterial decomposition as quickly and consequently with limited light and oxygen any bodies in deep/cold water decompose and are consumed more slowly without floating to the surface due to bacterial gas expansion common to warm water ...
Why do we float after death even though our weight is more than the body when we are alive?
Even though a body may be dead, with its heart stopped and the brain cells dead, the body's tissue continue to perform internal respiration which gives off carbon dioxide for some time after death and makes the body bloat so it is able to float.
