Panel 1: A shirtless man with a large shark bite sits calmly on a chair, hands folded, and declares: “I died fighting a shark.” Panel 2: Next to him, a rugged hunter with a grey beard and cap sits with hole in his head. He explains, “I died hunting with friends.” Panel 3: A man with visible traces of car tires sits on a chair, bones jutting out from a car accident. He mutters, “I died crossing the street.” Panel 4: A simple ghost draped in a white sheet sits next to him. It confesses, “I died changing the bed sheets.” The joke suggests that the pop-culture image of ghosts covered in white sheets comes from people who met their end while struggling with linens.
