In DBZ, Goku has teleported several times to the "Other World" _(a place
presumably inhabited by souls)_ , his most significant trip there being when
he brought Cell in his second form there to prevent him from blowing up the
earth and one another occasion Piccolo was summoned there too before being
summoned to Namek. King Kai's planet is at the end of Snake Way and Snake Way
is in the "Other World".

_This brings about the question of where exactly is it located and wouldn't
that mean that a 'dead' Goku could have easily teleported back to earth just
the same as if he were alive?_

question
dragon-ball-z
How was Goku able to teleport to the "Other World"?


He could (And he sometimes did), but it's "forbidden", and Goku doesn't like
breaking rules.

It's actually a different world in the same "dimension" as the normal world,
so yes, Goku can freely teleport between the two.

You're right in a technical sense.

From <http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Instant_Transmission>

I think it's a matter of wanting to do it or not. Goku wants Gohan to grow up
and reach his full potential, Goku believes his son can and will follow his
steps as earth's protector. This can only happen if Gohan shakes away all his
fears, and you can see how that happens as he destroys Cell.
