Forensic Science Trivia Game!

Re: Forensic Science Trivia Game

I would guess.... A week, because as the body decomposes, gasses are created and captured inside the body, causing positive buoyancy and making the corpse rise to the surface.

Well.. That's my guess anyways. *Doesn't really know*

5-6 days? My reasoning the same as Shuri. The body decomposes and the gases from the decomposition raise the body up to the surface.

Yay! Correct!
It takes three days for a corpse (underwater) to become a 'floater'. It takes approx 3days for the decomposing enzymes to break down tissue and belch - causing the body to bloat and float.
