The correct answer is  Pugilistic attitude (boxing, fencing, or defence attitude) is the posture of a body which has been exposed to great heat. The legs are flexed at the hips and knees, the arms are flexed at elbows and wrists and held out in front of the body, head slightly extended, all fingers are hooked like claws.
