Java type conversion

Java

I have a code for converting data types in Java.. I expect the code to through an error but it is not throwing.. The exception I expect is cannot be converted type exception at run time.. Here is the code..

class Abc {

    public static void main(String args[] ) throws Exception {

        try{
            short s = 24000;
            byte b = (byte) s;
            System.out.println(b);
        }

        catch(Exception e){
            System.out.println("Bad Conversion!");
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

Is there any exception to prevent this type of conversion as byte cannot be initialized with value 24000 as it is its out of range.. What I am getting on my console is "-64"
