Believe It Or Not, "Goldfish lives to be 35 years old

There must be something special in the water at Richard and Ann Wright's house. The English couple's children reportedly won a pair of goldfish named Splish and Splash at a fair in 1977, and the pair shared a bowl for an incredible 35 years — until Splish (the fish on the left) was found "floating dead in the bowl" this week.

As the Daily Mail joked, maybe he just forgot about Splish three seconds after his pal died. [Source]
