He had been swimming longer than usual. He didn’t need air. What’s going on, am I suddenly part fish? he thought. He swam deeper through the coral.

A swarm of fish sped past him screaming, “SWIM!”

Since when can fish talk? He turned to face a shark.

“Hello,” it said.

“Hi.”

“What brings you to the depths of the Pacific?”

“Not sure.”

“You’re much bigger than the fish I normally eat.”

“That’s lovely...” the man backed away, and that was when the shark bit his heart out.

On his grave it read,

“Died from a heart attack in his sleep.”
