OMFG, they are showing footage from investigations done by the LA county coroners office. They just showed a partially decomposed body pulled out of a river, with parts of the skin washed off. The wild part is, the investigatiors are totally cool dealing with the bodies.

Another clip showed an investigator in a packrat's apartment. There was garbage piled to the ceiling all over the place. The body was really decomposed, and the thing that freaked the investigator out was the fact that she heard mice in the piles of garbage around the body.

It's so creepy I can't stop watching

If you're in a job where pretty much every day you have to vomit at what you see, then it isn't the right job for you!

OH GAWD...they just showed a lab tech pull an entire fngers worth of skin (intact) off of a body, but it over his gloved finger, and take finger prints

DAMN, gotta respect guys that can stomach a job like that

Quote from show "to me, human decomposition smells different that any other animal"
Use that one in a daily conversation

I was watching that show earlier this evening - I'm in the Eastern time zone. After they pulled that dead guy out from under the bus, I changed the station. My stomach couldn't handle much more. :Q
