If someone jumps from the 22nd floor, will their body be intact?

Assume they hit a city bus.

Might be seeping liquid, but for the most part all in one piece. I saw the aftermath of a sky diver whose chute didnt open, he landed on a paved road. Thats alot further than 22 stories.

Yep, they won't blow apart or anything. Just blood and a smashed in mangled body. They may lose something if they hit something sharp on the bus.

Police officers responding to the WTC said they saw a body that had jumped from the tower and reported it as a homicide as they thought said person had been killed on the ground...the officer calling it in was a fair distance away...

I saw pics of a guy who jumped, not sure how high, his stomach was opened and his guts were hanging out. But he wasn't flattened to a gel or anything.

It all depends on how they land.  A friend of my dads survived a skydiving accident when his parachute did not open about 20 years ago.  He landed on the ground in a way where he actually survived.  Landed on his legs horribly and is in a wheelchair today, but still alive.  By the way he left a giant dent in the ground.  I will try to find pictures of the incident.
