NY Post ^ | 2/28/23 | Ben Cost

The remains of an Argentinian man who vanished earlier this month have reportedly been found inside a shark, according to family members who allegedly identified his arm tattoo.

Diego Alejandro Barría, 35, had reportedly last been seen alive on Feb. 18 driving his all-terrain vehicle along the coast in southern Chubut province, Jam Press reported.

Two days later, the off-roader’s heavily damaged ride and helmet were discovered on a beach in Rocas Coloradas, however, there was reportedly no sign of the driver.

Shortly thereafter, authorities launched an intensive search for the missing father of three. “Thanks to everyone who is helping in the search for Diego and praying for him,” the MIA man’s partner Virginia Brugger wrote in a heartrending Facebook post at the time. “Don’t leave him alone, bring me Diego.”

Sorry for this gentleman's death, but to me something smells fishy, and for the woke out there, I am not anti-fish, I love lox on a bagel with cream cheese and capers.

And yes I know sharks are not fish.

Sharks are indeed fish.

I love sharkskin for shoe material, but many countries have banned it out of “humane concerns.” It’s a fish, dang it!!!

“Bring me the arm of Diego Barría....”.

So, went for a swim, tide came in and trashed his ATV? Crashed, got into ocean and succumbed? Got into surf and blood brought the shark to him?

“heavily damaged ride and helmet”

So he was riding in the surf and the shark attacked him, his helmet, and his ATV? Hmmm.

"Yeah, they are."

Well, not if they identify as a mammal.

“And yes I know sharks are not fish.”

Sharks have a right of self-determination as much as people. Maybe he/she/it was a transfish?

Well, that just sucks!

So how did he end up off the ATV and into the shark’s belly? Did the shark leap out of the water and attack him when he rode too close to the shore? I’m picturing scenes from “Jaws” here.

"And yes I know sharks are not fish."

Huh? Sharks are not mammals nor crustaceans or any of their sub category. They are not Arthropods (horseshoe crabs, sea spiders, lobsters, crabs, shrimp, and barnacles), Cnidarians (sea anemones, corals, sea pens, jellyfish, box jellies, and hydrozoans), Echinoderms (starfish, brittle stars, sea urchins, sand dollars, sea cucumbers, crinoids, and sea daisies), Hemichordates (acorn worms and Pterobranchia), Lophophorates (brachiopods, bryozoans, and horseshoe worms), Mollusks (bivalves, gastropods, cephalopods), Sponges (calcareous, glass, demosponges), and Worms (roundworms, ribbonworms, flatworms, spiny-headed, segmented, arrow, jaw, horsehair, phallus, and peanut worms).

What are sharks if not a fish?

Dogfish sharks aren’t know to be dangerous to humans, being on the smaller end of the spectrum.

I once made a sharp turn on my quad that completely threw me off of it and flipped it. Hard.

I could see a little more speed causing it to flip many times. I was knocked out briefly and hurt like an SOB for weeks. I was unable to get up for so long I started worrying about not being able to go to work, losing my job, my savings wiped out by medical bills...

I could see something like that happening on a wet sandy beach causing him to be knocked out, the vehicle to be damaged, and the tide coming in and washing him out to sea... where a shark did what a shark do.

That or sharknado.
