A mortician has shed some light on what happens to the human body after someone dies - including why people sometimes poop themselves when they pass away and what coroners do with silicone breast implants, which 'don't decompose.' Gerald Ledford, a medical examiner from Little Rock, Arkansas, became a viral TikTok sensation after he started sharing a slew of bleak details about the end of life. He has dished on everything from why he has to 'remove men's testicles' while giving an autopsy to the harrowing reason why it may appear as though someone's hair and nails are still growing after they die.
