One never really knows the source of water you cook with or drink. We all just hope it is pure. A Kenyan has told on Twitter of her horrifying discovery that the water she cooked with and boiled to drink had been flowing over a dead man.

Her tale while amusing to Kenyans, left her with a bad taste in her mouth. She described how she went camping near a water body.

"I had bought a new tent and wanted to try it not far from home before I could go use it in faraway places. So I decided to camp on our farm for two nights down near the river. I'd cook using the river water, shower, and boiled some for drinking. Off-grid living."

Her beautiful night was soon to be interrupted by something horrifying

"On the other side of the river was my neighbours sugarcane farm. Uuuurm yeah I'd go visit the sugarcanes late at night when the moon was all beautiful! Sasa on the second day, as I was crossing the river from the sugarcane farm, I touched something soft in the shallow water."

The vibe she was feeling from the camping moment was soon disrupted.

"I didn't bother much. Though the moon was bright I couldn't see much. In the morning, I felt the urge to check what it was. This part of the river is never deep. I got there to check and Alas! It was a DEAD MAN !!!! He was just a few meters from where I fetched my water!"

Countless people have so far tagged DCI Kenya to help ID the dead person.

"I raised the alarm and people came. Police were involved and the body was retrieved. Remember the bridge I posted earlier? He had fallen off that bridge while drunk! And it was clear he had been there for some days as fish or whatever had started eating his toes!"

The camper said she is still unable to get the thought out of her mind.

"For two days I had been drinking, cooking , and bathing with water flowing over a dead man ! I felt disgusted ! If you ever go camping, carry your own drinking/ cooking water !!!!!!"
