Do fish have 9 lives too?

As reporteded via the BBC:

Sophia Underhill was transporting Bercy, her four year old goldfish (yes, I said goldfish), in her motor vehicle on the M1 when she lost contorl and was involved in a motor vehicle accident. Obviously not wearing a seatbelt poor Bercy was ejected from the car from the force of impact. Officers responding to the scene found Underhill ok, but in shock and mutterring something about how she thought she had killed her fish.

Believe it or not, 15 whole minutes later (after a search that ensued when police noticed an overturned but empty tank in the car), Bercy was found 15 feet away from the vehicle lying on the pavement. Not to be deterred by such apparently dire circumstances, Bercy was immediatly transported to the paramedics, who were able to resucitate the fish. Yes, I said they revived the fish.

Bercy is currently in the care of relatives while Underhill recovers from the accident.


There's gotta be a moral to this story somewhere, but I haven't found it yet...
