Obviously this excludes people who see them during the course of thier jobs (police, EMT's, etc,).

This also excludes seeing them at funerals.

I'm talking about being at the scene of an accident or where they find a body.

Back when I was in my teens I came across some cops pulling a car out of the river. I stood by and watched and when it surfaced they pulled this guy out from the drivers seat.

He had apparently been underwater for weeks and his whole body was bloated, almost pure white in color and he was pretty much frozen in this pose of shock as he was trying to correct his steering. Both hands extended as if holding the steering wheel and making a sharp turn.

One other time I came upon a car accident within the first couple minutes that it occurred.
I stopped and went to try and help and the driver of the one vehicle was able to get out and sit on the curb, his passenger (his wife) was obviously dead. You could just tell.

There were 2 guys in the other vehicle that were thrown clear and were lying in the middle of the road, both dead as well. That one kind of messed me up for a few days.

i havn't seen one yet but i'm a criminal justice magor and I'm taking alot of police tests. so one day unfortunately

damn. can't say i have while not expecting it.

I saw a decapitated dude once he ran his car under the back of an 18 wheeler we pulled up beside the truck as it pulled away from the car and BLAMO the driver had no head. [:'(] IT still creeps me the **** out.

no

dang, i cant say that i havent seen anyone dead like that nor have seen a car accident before[&:]

Hey dude, look in your trunk!:)

Yep, I saw them pull a 14 year old kid out of the lake two years ago after he swam too far out and drown. Tragic stuff.[&o]

Never, but I have seen hundreds of pics for my forensic science classes.

Yes, on the streets. Also, I was an explorer scout a very long time ago. We spent the night in an emergency room as part of our training. The security guard gave us a tour of the morgue.....whew.....hundreds of dead people in all different states. There was even one with elephantitis.All those bodies are not something I will ever forget.

she's still alive, I just had to cut off her legs to get her to fit beside my nitrous bottle:D

I also saw a dude that hit the median on his motorcycle and went flying into a pole. He was pretty much split in half when we got to him and all i said was *barf* oh my god *barf*.

does it count if i saw someone who was stabbed but they ran away and died later that day? so i guess i saw a body that later died[&:]

Doesnt COUNT!! [8D]

I saw another dude get into a motorcycle wreck infront of me. Me and my dad got out to see if he was ok, he stood there for a second said " Yeah im fine just a little shaken up", took off his helmet, and dropped dead.

This kinda counts because I was only 16 and was out with my dad whom is a paramedic... (It counts because technically it was not my job lol)


Anyways an old lady had slipped off a curb and fell in front of a bus which ran over her head. They loaded her in to the ambulance and put an air mask on her...since the inside of her head was all crushed and collapsed the air pressure from the mask shot bits of brain and blood out of her ears all over my dads uniform....I kinda sat there in shock and didnt know what to say or how to react....

Another time we went to a call where there was this bar fight...this dude was hit in the head with a crow bar and it was stuck in his head...he died later that night

I did when I worked for Wal Mart 3 years ago....transient was lying on the floor and I tried to wake him up by nudging him. He had no response, another customer preformed CPR on the guy.A few minutes later, the body deficated itself. AMR arrives and takes over for CPR, they didn't get anything. A few days later, we were told that he passed away due to a heart attack.

i saw a car accident once and i got out to help out, someone got t-boned as they were pulling into their drive way. i helped the people out of the car who were still moble. two people we couldnt moved because they were messed up pretty bad. paramedics, cops everythign came, as i was giving my report the one woman they got out of the crippled car was screaming and then....silence. they put her in the ambulance closed the doors and i could see them working on her for about 5 minutes then they stopped and sat down and slowly drove away.....


does that count???????[&:]

well then i got nothin...

meh.. seen a few dead ppl.. only thing that really bugs me about dead people is the smell after sitting in the sun for 3 days.. gets a little pungent

i was at the mall of america a couple months ago and this guy and girlfriend were screaming at eachother in a parking garage making a huge scene and the guy just jumped off and fell like 5 stories.. it was horrible there were little kids and stuff looking before the medics could get there

My neighbors were murdered :(

Didnt see there actual bodies, but I saw other things. I guess it doesnt really count though. Blah..

Who dun it?

The son.
5 ppl were murdered

[&:] YIKES!

yeah. still scares me to this day, to tell ya the truth.

youre the girl next door who meets up with him in the middle of the night, don't player hate

oh, yeah you know it.
he's in a psych ward

A couple years ago when I was working at my local pizza jointI saw a dead guy. I heard a loud crash outside so I went to see what it was, and a motorcyclist ran into a semi-truck...needless to say, he was pretty dead.

My family hasthe best business ever- never ends! as long as people are born, people die.


take a guess If I've seen a dead body or not[:-]

yes, i was at a friends house. i saw a 13yr old girl get shot in the head. a car drove very fast(about 70mph in a 25) i heard two loud pops(i though it was a drive-by it wasnt) one of the boys i (think he was 17) she was outside with, shot at the speeding car missed the car and shot her in the head:(

they didnt find any bullet casing as he used a revolver, but because i ran over there they found out it was actually him not the girl because they were saying the car had done it. but i told the police i witnessed 2 shots from him

Ummmm.....is that kind of like the Princess Bride.....he's just mostly dead???? :D

I never have.

I don't believe my gf has either, though she's been around corpses before with her nursing stuff.

To be honest, I'm really not sure how I would react. I suppose it would depend on how it occured/their relation to me.

when i visited a nursing home once where my friend works she was preping a body to be taken. so this old woman had just died, laying there and they were folding her arms and im watching just talkin to my friend. all of a sudden the body just sits straight up[:o]. i about fukin sh!t my pants. and my friend didnt even flinch!! she was just like "oh that happens every once in a while, you get use to it"

in my town one of my old classmates was on his way to work in his motorcycle

the car next to him changed lanes without checking blind spots and knocked him into oncoming traffic

i was there when they were taking him from underneath the old mans car...he died

its tragic

and on the topic of smelling a dead body

in chem lab ive made such compounds as putricine and cadaverine, which are two chemicals emitted from dead bodies, so in a way, yes i have

saw a gun battle between a burglar and undercover pd

2 burglar laying on the street dead shot on the head. Blood was flowing like water down the gutter.

i have encounters with several people who were dyinjg with aids. One person told me that he was dying that night. He died.

I knocked on an apartment once and the guy was dying in front of me. I had to call paramedics. When they picked him up he left a big poop on his chair. Died on the way to the hospital.

I used to work in EMS, so yeah I've seen dead people of all sorts of sizes/shapes/colors. But evidently that doesn't count.[8D] Even made a few of them undead(no, not zombies).

[sm=ttiwwp.gif]

I saw jesus.

abut 2 years ago, i watched a drunk dude fall off his bike and get nailed by a semi.....body pretty much exploded....kinda icky.

ORIGINAL: redass02gt

I saw jesus.


when have you seen me?

I used to work at my uncles towing company, and saw some pretty gruesome stuff. When we got the call usually from 911 dispatch shortly after they dispatched the PD and FD and we had to be there in 20 minutes so I saw quite a bit of stuff. The most memorable one I can remember was kids that went to another HS in the same town as I and we didn't care for each other because he was trying to get with this chick that I was trying to get with.

He was tired, and had been drinking and was going around a sharp corner about 1/4 mile from his house. Rolled the car, hit a tree no seatbelts.

When his mom came to the impound lot the next day to pick up his belongings out of the car she grabbed the upper part of the door and when she did that she grabbed a handful of scalp, hair and blood. There was so much blood in the floor that you couldn't even see the carpet, it was soaked in blood. The bad thing is, she came to get his stereo system out. WTF??? The day after your son passes away in an accident and you come to get his stereo? None of his other stuff he had in there, pics, clothes, personal items???

I was with both of my parents when they died. the hospice nurse took over two hours before she came to the house with my mom, and 1 1/2 hrs with my dad.she didnt even call the funeral home to pick them up tilafter she got there.the whole situation was hard to deal with.
I went to the scene where my sisters car was hit by a drunk driver. as I ran up, one of them said that they no longer had a pulse. I watched as they tried to revive her, and then stood up and said it was no use. I still remember that like it was yesterday. It was so traumatic.they wouldnt let me touch her but,I stayed by her til they took her in the ambulance.

I also saw a girl dead in a flipped jeep. We had been the second car to arrive, and my dad got out to see if he could help. he couldnt, she was already dead.

did your sister die?

Yes. She had been trapped and screaming until right before I got there. When they got her out, she had been stopped breathing only a couple of minutes, and they tried to revive her, but then when they looked closer at her injuries, they said it was no use. They laid her on the ground by the car to wait, because her husband was going in the ambulance,so they had to wait on the next one. I stood by her body until the otherambulance took her. Her husband died later. She was my best friend and I still love her very much.

I saw the police fishing out a body from the river. Was floating face down stuck on a rock...

several. few on the streets from accidents, not really up close.

i was with my grandmother and grandfather when they died. my grandmother died in her house, we had live-in hospice care at that point for her. was in the room when she passed. i was with my grandfather when he passed, but he was in the hospital at that point, and he had already been unconscious for days.

also saw what was left of one of my friends after he commited suicide. took a 20 gauge shotgun blast to the face. didnt really do as much damage as you would have thought to himself but blood was everywhere. took 5 hours before the coroner showed up and remove the body so we all just sat there.

was commin back from a school trip in a bus one time and there wasa semi stopped in the middle of traffic and as we dorve by we saw why i think i was one of three that didnt turn away but this dood had walked out infront a semi and BLAMMO he was all over the semi and the road idk kinda didnt bother me that much at all in fack but i hate to be around old peopl ethat are dying i cant stand seeing them them like that idk

yup... my first city job was working in the projects of clinton tpw MI

i was called in to "get into" an apt of an elderly woman. the fire dept was standing by to bust it down, and my boss needed me to get it open. her car was there....the doors were locked from inside.

needless to say when i got in... she was there on the floor... the phone on the floor ... and she was quite blue.

nice old lady too, i knew her well. but we all go sometimes

I have seen a few.

The first was in 1999. My 4th time to Vegas, and we are down near Fremont, trying like hell to find where we left my Firebird, so we could get somne stuff out of it and catch a cab ride home. We turn the corner and BAM! We see some dude straight-up execute this guy with a shot to the head. We ran out of there as fast as 3 drunks could. No need to stick around and chat with the fellow, ya know?

The second one was on 580 heading west. 3 guys were riding like morons on their bikes, and decided that traffic was not moving fast enough, so it was time to split lanes. Between 2 big-rigs. The first two made it, the last did not. I will never forget the *sound* as that truck split his head open like a watermelon. Even at freeway speeds with the window down you could hear it. The worst thing is that his friends were moving so fast they never stopped. They never even came back.

a dump truck jump the median on a highway and slammed head on into a suv. The body from the suv was just laying in the road. this really bothered me

a guy jumped off a bridge in philly (happens all the time) they pulled himout and i was walking down from a building and they had him all sprawled out. He looked like he had a real rough life, kinda like a biker dude. He was super purple too.

I was in CO right outside of Denver with my dad when I was 17. There were these huge concrete barricades on either side of the road. A lady in a cavalier had side wiped one, flipped and flatted right against the barricade. I was maybe a couple cars back and it was still raining pretty hard. THe cars in front of us stopped and we sat there for a little in our car. There was glass and debri everywhere.They were trying to pry open the door but the entire roof had been flattened down to the hood so there was no way to pry it open. I didnt actually get out and see the body, but there was no way anyone could have survived it.

I guess you CO people arent used to driving in the rain much???

The only dead body I have ever seen in real life was at the scene of a car accident

I work in a Trauma Center....and speaking of...I justhad an individual die from an MI right in front of me....

But yea, Im excluded from your list ;)

Aside of that, no.

I used to live along a busy state route & this guy was seen doing at least 100 before he crashed. I dont know how it happened but when I made my way over to the scene, I was speechless. He was driving a riced out black 98 civic (not trying to bash). The car was on the right side of the road, in the grass, facing the opposite way. All 4 tires were dismounted, bloody windshield hanging on by a corner, & the car was just totaled. The driver was about 4 yards away from the car......pronounced dead by the parametics.
