dinner conversation to a hault...what do u think?
my friends and i get into weird conversations alot and the other night, we started talking about tanning and body reactions. that's where i started wondering: if someone dies/is killed on the beach at night...and is only found the next night...will he/she have tanned, considering the body stayed in the sun all day? i think this is more of a biology question, but even if u dont have a reliable source, let me know what u think

I think the body would definitely tan. Tanning is just changing the pigmentation of your skin, which is on your exterior. Dead bodies don't start deteriorating on the outside till days later so as long as the skin remains intact, you should be able to tan even if you've been dead for a day or so.

They would more then likley if out in the sun with nothing on them be really badly burnt.. If you think about it if you go tanning you move around and stuff but still get red even burnt.. Think about someone staying in the same place not moving with the sun on them all day they would have alteast 2degree burns
