Dead bodies do the darnedest things! From Ananova:
Staff at a Philadelphia pet shop expecting a shipment of tropical fish were shocked to receive a dead body instead.
Mark Arabia, owner of Pets Pus, found the coffin when he went out to the delivery man's vehicle to collect the $1,000 fish delivery.
"At first when I looked at it, I said, 'Fish never come this way'," he said.
He eventually learned the body inside was that of a 65-year-old man from San Diego, California.
It was supposed to go to a laboratory in Allentown, Pennsylvania, but there was an "unfortunate mix-up" at Philadelphia airport, said US Airways.
The airline, which had brought the body from California, said the problem was caused by a "verbal miscommunication between a delivery driver and the cargo representative", adding that it was "deeply sorry".
