[SML] Dead body?

[Dougherty, Jim]

Another thought, depending on the length of your run, is to contact your local FD/EMS agencies.  There are very lifelike training mannequins out there that they may loan.  The weight of these varies from Quite-Light to What-the-Heck-Did-You-Have-For-Breakfast-This-Morning. The former work better for your needs.

We’ve built them for shows, and the internal skeleton is helpful for maintaining shape. PVC bones, joined with tieline so that the limbs can flop, also work well to create the skeleton.
