Alien washes up on NJ beach

(1/1)

Portuguese man o' war, floating around, is seasonal in S. Florida.
And they could be deadly, I guess, if the tentacles got wrapped around your upper thighs or got in your mouth.   :o

Its nasty sting is excruciatingly painful...
--- End quote ---

Yes, very painful and lasts around 30 minutes.  With paralyzing and numbing as well.
