How many times have you survived a Box Jellyfish sting?

 

[ArtsyGirl]

The same amount of times Steve Irwin survived a sting ray barb. What is it? 30 seconds and your dead.

Katie is in the UK not Australia, and to answer your question; Ive never seen a jelly fish in my life.

Although I hate swimming in the ocean so maybe that has something to do with it.

I've been stung by a jelly fish, hurt but didnt kill.. It was just a common jelly, but box-jelly fish kill you so I dont think you'll meet too many people who have survived to tell the story.

I see plenty of jellyfish dead on the beach.... Especially Daytona beach.

Box Jelly fish are small as shit and hard to spot. On the Discovery channel they had a show on em and the people investigating them both got stung and survived. One guy got out of the hospital in 2 or 3 days I think and the chick was in there for a week maybe more, dont really remember. They are crazy though.

^They would have had the vaccine or whatever on the boat yeah? I heard the other day if you were to get stung if you lay really still.. like statue still you could possibly survive (assuming you dont have a vaccine)...

I love the Jelly fish eggs, when I was a kid we'd scoop em up and throw them at each other.. So I fear the Jellies I've built up alot of summers worth of bad karma..

Enjoy the ocean Rukas, because on this side of the world, our ocean is brown.

[Tha_Wood]

i got stung by a jelly fish on the foot and i had to pee on it

 

[k69atie]

^ did you see that in friends?!

 

[Eric]

Good point 69Katie6969. While perhaps you've exposed Tha Wood I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt here being that peeing on your Jelly Fish sting is a common practice in the United States. Or an Urban Myth at least.

 

[hizzle?]

I once jumped on a jelly fish. It hurt lol

Luckly the jelly fish in the mediteranean are really unoffensive.
