The beach today was covered with hundreds of dangerous man of war jellyfish and after they washed ashore, they seem to breath and move.

  • @AcanLord i know your comment is months old, but just thought i would say that touching the float will still hurt, but it wont do any real damage

  • @MrGoldfishlover F( Like anybody wants to know....

  • @realsaraSKELLINGTON i`m not arguing with you. My thoughts were simply that you might be interested in this animals true biology, since you like this sort of thing :)

  • @AcanLord arguing with you is going to get no where. Why did you reply to me to act like such a know - it - all?

  • @realsaraSKELLINGTON Man`o war is not a jellyfish. it is a Siphonophore, but still a cnidarian just the same. You are only going to be stung if you make contact with the lower extremities. Touching the pneumatophore "the float" won`t do anything.

  • @AcanLord minor would mean the jelly to be dead. It still has a "minor" sting. Believe me, I am obsessed with Jellyfish, love them to death. A Portuguese Man of War has almost 30ft long tentacles. But yes you are right, I would just rather not get touched at all by one. Lol Also, it would be worse to be out in the open, because having a more wide range gives the jellyfish more room to grab you since that is similarily how jellyfish eat.

  • @realsaraSKELLINGTON

    you arently likely to be killed if you simply make minor contact. the greatest danger these animals pose to humans is when they are at sea, as their is a greater chance a swimmer will be exposed to wider surface area of tentacles, Ergo A greater quantity of Venom is inncoculated.

  • @ahnomnomnom it DOES contain air

  • @i1webcam they are LARGE AND DANGEROUS. you could get killed if one touched you. and your stupid for poking and popping them.
