Taboo
Season 5
Ep 1. Touching Death
- August 6, 2008
A dead body fills most people with fear, and touching one is considered taboo. But what if this was your job? Would you dig up a rotting corpse for $2 a day? Can you see yourself rushing to the scene of a fatal car crash to pick up the bodies? Or maybe dissect a woman to see why she died? Is it money, faith or the search for the truth which makes us break this taboo and touch a dead body?
