Fatboy Slim Spots Dead Body While Swimming With Son

September 15, 2008
Fatboy Slim Spots Dead Body While Swimming With SonDJ Fatboy Slim has described seeing a dead body as he and his son swam in the sea near his home in Brighton.

“I was swimming 50 foot from my back door with seven-year-old Woody in my arms, when a corpse floated gently by,” the DJ said.

“Not the kind of thing you want to see swimming with your son, is it?

The DJ, whose real name is Norman Cook, told the Sun newspaper that it was the third body he had seen floating near his home.

“People jump off the White Cliffs, drown, and then float in this big semi-circle before ending up outside my house.”
