Samson or Shimshon (שִׁמְשׁוֹן "Of the sun" (perhaps proclaiming he was radiant and mighty) or "[One who] Serves [God]", Standard Hebrew Šimšon, Tiberian Hebrew Šimšôn) is the third to last of the Judges of the ancient Children of Israel mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. He is described in the Book of Judges in chapters 13 to 16.
Samson is something of a Herculean figure, utilizing massive strength to combat his enemies and perform heroic feats unachievable by ordinary men: wrestling a lion; slaying an entire army with nothing more than a mule's jawbone; and tearing down an entire building.
Biblical story
Samson is said to have lived during the period when the Israelites were oppressed by the power of the Philistines. At this time an angel from God appears to Manoah, an Israelite from the tribe of Dan, in the city of Zorah, and to his wife, who is sterile. This angel predicts that they will have a son who will deliver the Israelites from the Philistines. In accordance with Nazaritic

After his death, Samson's family recovers his body from the rubble and buries him near the tomb of his father Manoah.

Samson is a biblical figure, therefore is a non-existent entity. You can't find the body of a character in a book.

If they did, I haven't heard of it, I think that would be big news, if they were to find something like that. Wikipedia would likely have it on there.
