The older an egg its the more air it has in it so a rotten egg will float. A fresh egg will sit horizontally at the bottom of a bowl of water. A stale egg will sit more upright, It may still be edible at that stage but will not be very nice. The eggs you buy in a supermarket will be a week old by the time you get them and past their best although still safe to eat.

Rotten stuff releases bad smelling gas.
When that happens in an egg, theres no way for it to escape.
So the egg floats.
So does a dead body. :-P

I was always led to believe that the pointy end of the egg stays down the way if the egg is ok, but if its rotten the egg floats.
