Click to reveal the answerThe answer is: He was swallowed by a great fish
Jonah 1:17 - What Jonah is best known for, though there is much speculation to what creature actually swallowed him. It couldn't have been a whale because the throat of a whale can barely take the size of a man's leg - a shark might be more likely, but "Jonah and the Shark" doesn't quite have the same ring to it!
