A gruesome forensics experiment that reveals why severed feet sometimes wash up on beaches
io9.com Updates: A gruesome forensics experiment that reveals why...: "You may have read about mysterious cases of severed feet washing up on beaches in British Columbia. Now forensic scientists have done a simple experiment to show how these things happen. They put a pig carcass underwater and filmed it to demonstrate how quickly ocean life can strip a dead body of all its flesh — causing limbs to fall off in the process. What you’re seeing in this video is a large pig being reduced to bones in a matter of days. The body was put into a cage so no sharks or big fish could reach it. All this destruction is just from small sea creatures."
