even if the head isn't attached on the body anymore?

Might vary by location, UK guidelines:

Obvious examples that may not require the attendance of a medical professional to pronounce death would be a decapitated or badly decomposed body, multiple body disruptive trauma, where a body is severely burnt or has been subjected to prolonged submersion or has been predated by animals (where the body is missing essential parts).

Not sure there are many opportunities for these cases in a flight, but you never know…

I sat next to a cougar on my last flight, and she destroyed my heart.

I think minced by the engine counts

I was an EMT and we were taught you do CPR until pronouncement, except if there's obvious signs of mortality, of which decapitation is one. Livor/rigor mortis. Shoes off. All obvious signs of mortality.

I was once told by an EMT that you do CPR unless the spine is clearly severed in any place. Basically the person doesn't have to be cut in half at the neck. Anywhere above legs counts.

Different folks, different policies and procedures. Ours are similar, barring the shoes. We need socks off or hope remains.

I have my shoes off and I am mortal.
