Went out for lunch with my workmates. We went to a restaurant oeverlooking the quays.  During lunch a fire engine pulled up.  A lot of people got up to have a gawp.  On our way out it was obvious they were fishing out a body.  I couldn't believe it when a load of people stood around to wait for the corpse to come up.  Why would anyone do this?

Ghouls!

I agree totally Slart. It's like when you're on the motorway and everyone slows down to get a good look at an accident. Get's right on my wick.


you know, you know, if a feller named Monroe never fathered bluegrass
he would still be unrecognised as the grand wizard of speed metal

I'm not bothered by seeing corpses, but I wouldn't hang around on a quayside in the hopes of seeing some poor bugger being dredged up.  I thought it was disrespecful.

Fair enough. I do like to take the moral high ground on frequent occasions myself too.

Isn't it a natural reaction to have a ganders at an accident? Don't get me wrong, waiting for a body to be pulled out of the water is sick, but I bet everyone on here has turned their heads when passing a smash on the motorway.

Few months back is was on the M62 going to work, suddenly every one started to slow down. As I got to a bridge all the vehicles started to move over to the outside lane, next thing I'm passing a the body of a bloke that's just jumped from the bridge with a couple of motorists trying to do what they could for him, blood everywhere. Proper shock me up.
