The scuba diver swam away from the crazy man, wondering why they didn't have on scuba gear at this depth, and also why he didn't bother to keep his mouth shut, smiling with a maw of curved, triangular teeth, almost like some of the sharks he once saw when he went into a shark cage to examine some Great whites........ though he wouldn't want to go see one ever again, he could just swim away from the crazy guy swimming towards him, trying to bite him
*2 hours later*

Grognar's body goes limp, his skin losing its warmth and color, as though the very essence of life has drained from him. The air around him grows heavy with regret, faintly shimmering with the weight of his past. His heart appears still, but a slow, steady pulse begins to return as his wounds heal unnaturally fast, a haunting reminder that death cannot claim him

The Toon performs some sort of cartoonish act of violence. This may be handing someone a bomb, hitting someone with a cartoon mallet, burping a burp that is so noxious it melts flesh, or anything else as long as it is cartoonish.
The attack is more of a throwaway gag than a plot element, so any props or properties of the attack are incidental and disappear immediately. Animated mallets evaporate in a puff of smoke, fire does not spread, and electricity cannot power devices.
