Answer #1

Call 911 imediatley and don’t touch anything

Answer #2

Depends on how long ago the death appears to be. And of there is an obvious sign that the person has been mürdered.

If you are not sure whether the person is dead or not, go and check. Maybe he’s just unconscious and needs an ambulance.

If he is obviously dead, do not touch anything, because you might destroy evidence if you do. If you do that and you find out he is dead, tell the police what you touched and why. So you will not be suspicious if they find your DNA on the body.

If he has obviously died shortly and the killer may still be around, go to the nearest crowded place and then call the police. If the person is obviously dead since a longer period of time, call the police and stay near the place.

Answer #3

Yes call police immediately because if you try to do something from yourself you may end up getting yourself blamed for the dead body.

Answer #4

first i will stare then have an anxiety attack..

Answer #5

It depends how you found it. If you just found it out of the blue, or if it seems like it was desposed there to hide it or trown there just like nothing, I would call 911 or someone who can help you figure out what to do with it, and also so they can figure out what happened. If it was because you where maybe digging and you found it, then I would just try to stop and dig it back? Because odds are is that someone put the body there after a death, if not, still call 911 so maybe they can help you put it back or something?

Answer #6

Haha… I would probably do the same D:

Answer #8

O.o

Answer #9

yeah i know lol but i wouldnt poke it it wouols justt be an odd urge

Answer #10

uhh. In any situation you dont touch the body, rather its a natrual death or homicide or su*cide. NEVER touch anything. Call 911 immediately… The sooner the better. That way you wont look suspicious, you have no footprints, dna, finger prints, skin or hair or anything left at the scene that would tie you to it. When cops arrive make sure you mention where you have been, what you have touched and your exact story so they can match it up. If you are unsure they are dead, Yell. Shout to them, if they dont respond they could need an ambulance, which either way better safe than sorry.

Answer #11

I would poke or throw something at it.

Answer #12

Haha.. No, Sarah I did’nt. I’ve just always been scared that I will find one while camping or somthing and freak out :S I went to a haunted house and nearly died when I thought I saw a dead person…lol I know I’m a chicken :P

Answer #17

Answer #18

I would puke. Like projectile vomit. Then call the police.

Answer #19

Answer #20

DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING!! Call the police! Just remember this will make a difference in finding out what happened. Just think,..if this were someone you knew and loved, how would u want them to be treated? And wouldn’t you want your family to have answers to what happened to them? ACT FAST!

Answer #21

Scream out like hell before running to call people out.

Answer #22

Answer #23

Dont Ignore it but dont touch it or anything. Call the police immediatley 999/911(I think thats the american police). If I were you I would also get a parent and tell them but make sure you dont make any contact with it. SMILE . HAPPY. T.V IS FAKE :D
