The Joke In Two Different Versions:  Which one is easier to understand?

An accident

ONE -

A couple of New Jersey hunters were out of the woods when one of them fell to the ground.  He didn't seem to be breathing, and his eyes were rolled back in his head.  The other guy whipped out his cell phone and called the emergency services.  He gasped to the operator:  "My friend is dead!  What can I do?"  The operator in a calm and soothing voice said:  "Just take it easy.  I can help.  First, let's make sure he's dead. " There was a silence, and then a shot was heard.  The guy's voice came back on the line.  He said:  "OK, now what?"

TWO -

Once two hunters went hunting in the forest.  One of them suddenly fell down by accident.  He showed the whites of his eyes and seemed to have ceased breathing.  The other hunter soon took out his mobile phone to call the emergency center for help.  The operator said calmly:  "First, you should make sure that he is already dead.  " Then the operator heard a gunshot from the other end of the phone and next he heard the hunter asking:  "What should I do next?"

NOTE -

The operator said "make sure he's dead", to see if maybe he was still alive.  So, the operator should have asked him to check if the friend was still alive!  In this case the man is not a killer, but he acts almost like a murderer/killer. It's just a joke, not a real story. But it is funny because of the man's mistake. We hope you can understand his mistake and never do this!!
