··schizophrenic pizza orderer and watch collectorRed backs aren’t that bad….killer headache for about 6 hours with a wicked dose of nauseous undertones. Got bitten on the upper arm many years ago.
Not a pain I would forget but 24 hours later was all good.

Portuguese man of war……Meh…. They are what we call Blue bottles and throw at each other as kids…
Are blue bottle jellyfish poisonous?
The bluebottle uses its tentacles to catch, sting, and kill its prey. The venom it uses is a mix of phenols and proteins that are deadly to their prey, but not to humans. Immediately after you get stung by a bluebottle, you will feel an intense jolt of pain.

Robert Drewe describes the sting as "100 times as potent as that of a cobra and 1,000 times stronger than a tarantula's"
😲 Remind me not to swim in the ocean should I ever visit Australia...
