He was sleeping.
Jonah 1
4 The LORD hurled a great wind on the sea and there was a great storm on the sea so that the ship was about to break up.
5 Then the sailors became afraid and every man cried to his god, and they threw the cargo which was in the ship into the sea to lighten it for them. But Jonah had gone below into the hold of the ship, lain down and fallen sound asleep.
6 So the captain approached him and said,"How is it that you are sleeping? Get up, call on your god. Perhaps your god will be concerned about us so that we will not perish."

Who was the cast overboard during a storm and spent time in the stomach of a whale?
Jonah
Why was Jonah thrown overboard?
Jonah was told by God to go and preach to the Ninevites, but Jonah disobeyed and took a ship going in the opposite direction. A big storm came upon the ship and Jonah was asked to pray to God to stop the storm. The storm did not stop and so the sailors cast lots to determine if someone on the ship was the cause of the storm. The lot fell upon Jonah and so the sailors cast Jonah into the sea.
Why was God merciful towards Jonah?
God showed mercy towards Jonah because Jonah repented and turned back to God after initially resisting His command. God saw Jonah's change of heart and gave him a second chance to fulfill his mission of delivering a message to the people of Nineveh. Ultimately, God's mercy is a reflection of His love and desire for all individuals to have the opportunity to seek forgiveness and redemption.

Did Jonna jump out of the boat?
No, he built it. If you mean the biblical Jonah, technically he was thrown overboard. He had disobeyed God who told him to to go to the town, Niniveh. Jonah instead, boarded a boat going in the opposite way. To prove to Jonah that he can't run away from God, He caused a huge storm. Jonah realized this, told the crew about his transgression, and that they should throw him over, which they only did so after tossing much o' their cargo. Once they threw Jonah over, the storm subsided. To the previous answer, you're thinking Noah.

Is vampire exist in earth?
No vampires do not exist. I'm saying only God exists. Here's a little story. There once was a man named Jonah. One day God called him to go to Ninava a tell people about God but Jonah didn't. Then, Jonah got on a boat and sailed in the exact opposite direction because he thought that he could escape God. But God knew where Jonah was and sent a storm which lasted for about 14 days. No one ate or drank. Jonah knew that the storm was his fault so he told the crew to throw him overboard. They pleaded that there must be a different way but Jonah refused. Then, they threw him overboard and immediately the storm stopped. Then God sent a big whale and it swallowed Jonah up. For 3 days, Jonah was in that fish and then, after 3 days, the fish spat him out onto the shore. Then, Jonah obeyed God and went to Ninava and preached about Jesus. I know this story dosen't tell you much about vampires but you can get a lot more stories like this in the Holy Bible. You can go to any Christian book store and ask for a Bible. I really lie the stories and I hipe you will too!
