    I was stung in Hawaii by one as a kid and it’s still the most painful thing I’ve felt in my life.
  • When I was in the 1st grade, one of these things wrapped around my arm and manged to pull me out a little to sea. They apparently have these special tentacles that constrict to reel in prey, and I was small enough that it could actually hold me. A surfer caught me and got me back to shore, but I was terrified and my arm HURT. I had these horrible scars all along my arm that took almost two weeks to go away, and for years afterwards, they would show up whenever I tanned. It's been almost 20 years and I still get nervous whenever I go to the beach; and I absolutely REFUSE to get in the water, even to cool off. Watching content like this has been helping me bit by bit through a kind of controlled exposure therapy, so I really appreciate you doing this. Thank you for helping me feel a little more brave 😊
  • no one: this man when he’s in excruciating pain: “yep, yea”

    Now its Coyote's moment to shine and say if Mark's ok
  • I live in sweden and i haven’t even heard of these insects or animals before I saw your channel. I can clearly say that I am so happy to live here.

    I was taking surfing lessons with Ron john surf shop and it was the third day and there where man of wars EVERYwhere on the beach! we went out into the water and i felt a tickle on one of my toes so i reached down and sure enough i had a tentickle on my toe and on my finger. i broke down on the beach from the pain and that's when my surfing lesson ended that day. the sting lasted for SO long! it was one of the most painful times of my life!😬 Thanks to mark I had watched this video before and I knew what to do. Thank you guys for making these awesome videos!
  • Mark: Gets stung by an animal Coyote: “Are you challenging me?”
  • Coyote behind the camera: DESCRIBE WHAT YOU’RE FEELING, MARK!
  • I got stung by a jellyfish and this video was just what I needed! Thank you so much Coyote Peterson and Mark Vins! ❤
  • @stecca848
    You confirmed what scientists expert in this topic already claimed with rigorous and peer-reviewed studies. That's awesome! Thanks for donate your body in order to achieve this
  • let's appreciate the fact that he he recieves pain and suffering for us, thank you Coyote Peterson and Mark Vins
  • How I take care of jellyfish stings: DO NOT PUT COLD WATER (it activates the poison) also I wrote this before watching the vid! Rub sand on it while walking back k to the place you are staying at ( which for me would be the condo we own) when you get there alternate WARM WATER and vinegar while scraping a credit card over the sting to get the stinger things out... this happens ALOT to me! Hope this helps
  • Thank you for this, so many people come to the beach and have NO idea about the wildlife, beach flags, riptide etc. Knowing what can hurt you and what to do is important. I grew up at the ocean and my dad taught me about these when I was a little girl. I meet so many people that have never been to the beach, videos like this are fantastic!

    A jellyfish that speaks Portuguese, thats wild.
  • he didn’t scream as much.. what an actual madman.
  • @FlozumFR
    I actually got stung in the private area by a man of war a couple of days ago. I found that hot water helped relieve the pain a lot!

    I appreciate you differentiating the Man o’ War (aka Blue Bottle) from other jellyfish. Siphonophores are not a jellyfish but they are closely related… One interesting difference is that Man o’ Wars don’t swim, they sail with the wind while jellyfish actually swim. If you actually wanted to get stung by the “baddest” jelly around, I’m pretty sure that’s the box jelly or the Irukandji! They’re the most venomous jellyfish, and I actually wouldn’t recommend it! They’re found in Australia, and a few years ago a couple of scientists nearly died after getting accidentally stung while studying them. (Yes I know I’m late to the party). I’m still shocked by what you guys put your bodies through in the name of science. I’m a microbiologist and I couldn’t do that, but there are scientists before me who have. To be that’s the “Brave” part of “Brave Wilderness”. I used to think the channel was nuts, but I’ve grown to respect you guys a lot more due to the science and potentially life-saving information you include.
