Outback character

A man walked into a bar and ordered a beer. Barney was a farmer in his mid-60s. As he reached into his back pocket for his wallet, he suddenly collapsed forward off the barstool and on to the floor.

An ambulance was called but the monitor showed a flat line. That is what the mortuary admission form recorded.
