The Original Lumpy Gritz Posted January 19 Posted January 19 Twice, I had Jellyfish encounters back in my surf'n dayz. A cut in half raw white onion rubbed on the marks did much to reduce the pain.

We get untold amounts of Blue Bottles (below) and other stinging jellyfish - But the Box Jelly Fish is nothing like them.......These are not much bigger than your finger nail and can kill you......and you will go out SCREAMING.
