Corpse size has a lot to do with it. I wouldn't swim in even a large pool with a dead human in it (knowingly), but one dead fish or rodent or dozens of dead tadpoles or bugs? Not an issue.

Heck, most household swimming pools have dozens of dead bodies in them, but they're 99% insects.

Now what if it's a severed human head?

Hard no, leaking is gross.

What if the head was laminated after it was severed?

How exactly do you propose to laminate a severed head??

I don't know, I'm just the ideas guy.

Dip it in molten plastic?

That's not "laminating".
