Body Recovery Manikin

The Body Recovery Manikin is a life-sized, weighted training dummy designed to simulate a human body in water for recovery operations. Ideal for search and rescue teams, it replicates the movement and buoyancy of a drowned victim, allowing for realistic practice in surface and submerged retrievals.

The Body Recovery Manikin is a highly realistic, full-body training manikin developed for search, rescue, and recovery training in water environments. Designed to accurately represent the weight, density, and body profile of a human cadaver, this manikin enables teams to practice the complex and delicate task of body recovery under realistic conditions.

Built to withstand repeated use in open water, lakes, rivers, and coastal environments, it behaves like a real human body when submerged—sinking, drifting, or becoming caught in obstacles. The manikin’s weight distribution and flexibility closely mimic an unconscious or deceased person, offering critical hands-on experience for divers, rescue technicians, and emergency responders.

Key Features:

  • Realistic Weight and Buoyancy: Simulates a fully clothed adult body in water, including options for neutral or negative buoyancy to reflect different recovery stages.

  • Durable Construction: Made from heavy-duty, water-resistant materials for extended use in harsh aquatic environments.

  • Flexible Joints: Limbs move naturally to simulate how a real body behaves when handled or retrieved underwater.

  • High-Visibility or Natural Appearance: Available in bright or lifelike finishes depending on training requirements.

  • Drainage Ports: Allow quick drying and easier transport post-training.
