I hope somebody sent him home from work to get himself cleaned up.

Its called Adipocere also known as corpse, grave or mortuary wax, is a wax-like organic substance formed by the anaerobic bacterial hydrolysis of fat in tissue, such as body fat in corpses. In its formation, putrefaction is replaced by a permanent firm cast of fatty tissues, internal organs, and the face. So basically Corpse Soap

Reminds me of some old TV show where someone would come running in with a huge powder puff, yell "MAKEUP!" and whack some poor guy in the face with it. Yes, I'm old.

My dad was a mortician, and with today`s embalming process, most of the time the body will lie in the same state as the day it went into the ground for sometimes decades, especially with the sealed caskets today. My dad was involved in exhumation of a small cemetery years ago. They needed to move the dead to another place and they came across a little girl`s casket ( about age 10 ) which had a glass top. She had died nearly 100 years before, and dad said she looked like the day she was buried ( no decomposition ). However, workers moving the casket fucked up and accidently put a good crack in the glass top. She turned all black within 10 minutes. Sorry so long, thought I`d share that.

Wow interesting!
