DO NOT TOUCH This Portuguese Man O' War

Показать описание
At first glance, this bobbing, bubble-like creature looks like a jellyfish. But don't be fooled by its spindly tentacles and translucent body because it's definitely not a jellyfish. This is a Portuguese man o' war. And it's extremely dangerous. While it may seem like a harmless plastic bag floating in the ocean, it's not. If you come across one while swimming in the ocean or find one washed up on the beach, whatever you do, don't touch it. A Portuguese man o' war can potentially kill a human. And you don't want to be its next victim. So if it's not a jellyfish, what is a Portuguese man o' war? Do they only live in Portugal? And why are they so dangerous?

I was stung by one of these in my twenties. I was swimming in the ocean with my then boyfriend. We were goofing around and I only saw it out of the corner of my eye. I thought it was seaweed until I got stung, then I freaked out. Then when I did this I got my ankles tangled in the tentacles. I ended up getting both feet, and my entire left side of my body, leg, side, arm stung. When we got out we found a life guard and they could actually see it from shore and started warning others to beware of it. It was a painful 5 hr drive home after that. I will never forget it and now I am more careful when I swim in the ocean.
