The Unusual Australian Shark Arm Murders

Make sure to leave your questions for our Post Mortem episode down below!

i can only imagine ryan writing the script by himself and laughing at all his puns

"You won't mistake him. He has a bullet hole in his forehead." That line was raw as hell lmao

Shane: Is this gonna be a running theme? Ryan: I swear that was the last one... hIs SpIrItS wErE bUoYeD

"Boy, the last thing I would want after vomiting is to be killed." With how hard I've thrown up before, I'd almost consider that a mercy.

“..the police were able to identify the arm’s original operator . . .” WTF I love that bizarre phrasing.

"I'm no marine biologist but... sharks don't have arms." Jesus Shane's improv class 'to meet people' paid off.

Fun fact: Tiger sharks evert their stomachs (Literally turning them inside out via their mouth so their stomach is hanging out) when they Vomit, so not only did they have to watch an arm come out of a shark, they watched the Shark vomit up its own stomach, a rat, a bird, and an arm. They thrash around when they did this, which explains the convulsions, and they do this with things their body can't digest (bones, plastic, parasites, and human arms).

I sea what's going on here. 0:30 "dive deep and figure it out" 0:41 "business was floundering" 0:43 "in the depths of the Great Depression 0:49 "lure customers and keep his business afloat" 0:59 "I swear it's the last one" 1:01 "his spirits were buoyed" 1:11 "an increasing wave of shark attacks" 1:17 "just the attraction needed to turn the tide" 3:29 "well-respected member of his community on the surface" 3:32 "...but who hid undercurrents of criminal activity" 3:47 "Smith plunged into more work" 3:50 "...became netted in his various illicit schemes" 4:43 "hook you in there" 16:44 "sinking embarrassment of his various crimes surfacing" (two for one) 17:22 "lure attention to their floundering aquarium" 17:26 "what they actually hooked" 17:45 .....not Ryan's best work honorable mention to Shane for "the mind reels" at 4:46

Shane: friends murder each other all the time! Ryan: nervously backs up a little

“It’s hard to know what Holmes was thinking, because again he had a hole in his head”. Priceless

Ryan: "you still doing it?" Shane: grunts in Australian

Anyone else boggled by the sheer CHANCE of a man fishing. Catching a shark. Happening to have an aquarium. Managing to move the 14ft shark. THE SHARK BEING THE ONE WHO ATE THE ARM. The chance was so slim.

‘The arm’s original operator’ I don’t know why that made me laugh omg

im sorry but this man literally just said coochie aquarium i have never laughed harder in my life

i love how once or twice a season, something about friends killing one another comes up and either ryan or shane hints that they’re going to kill the other. it’s like they switch off who’s homicidal for that episode

Here is my theory- The shark organized Jimmy's murder, and he made Holmes drink the alcohol and then shot him. Then shark then ate Jimmy , but he didn't digest the arm all the way. Boom. Sloved.

Ryan: okay no more fishing jokes Ryan: tells 20 more fishing jokes

Just googled out of curiosity, here to drop facts for other curious folks. Sharks have a tendency to puke in high-stress situations (i.e. when they need to use their energy to fight or flee rather than digest). So we can conclude that this shark was not happy about being in that aquarium . . .

Love how the aquarium just yoinked a shark out of the water and was like "this is mine now"
