Drowning Victim Pulled From the Water: Recovery Scene and Crowd of Onlookers
The images show a male body being brought ashore from open water while a large crowd watches from the bank. Nothing in this thread identifies the person, the country or the date, and the files were saved from a numbered gallery on the long-defunct aggregator viraldeath.com, so there is no original caption to trace. On what a body recovered from water looks like in general: forensic texts describe a fine white froth at the mouth and nostrils, which is transient and often washed away before recovery; cutis anserina, or goose flesh, which is a postmortem change caused by cold and does not indicate whether the person was alive on entering the water; and wrinkling and bleaching of the palms and soles, sometimes called washerwoman's skin, which takes roughly 48 to 72 hours of immersion to develop. The literature stresses that none of these signs is specific to drowning. They occur in bodies that entered the water already dead, and they can be absent altogether. |

Re: Drowning Victim Pulled From the Water: Recovery Scene and Crowd of Onlookers
I like their pretty green and pink tops. But it does distract from the body. No pointers?? Oh well, I will have to do the work myself this time I guess, and you guys can feel free to use this anytime you need help finding the body! |
