After telling Dawn about my encounter with 2 jellyfishes I decided to make an entry on the 10 Most Poisonous Creatures. When doing some research I found all of them very unique. But, if I were to die from one of these creatures it would have to be number 10. So if you don’t want to read through the list of top 10, click here to jump straight to number 10. Number 10 is a must read.
The creatures listed are not in order of the poisonous level. They are just the most poisonous, don’t fuck with them. It doesn’t matter who’s top.
WARNING: If you are facing any of these creatures or were already bitten or stung by them, this is NOT a help page. If you came here for help then you will most likely die. The information on this page is not entirely accurate.
1. Box Jelly Fish
Cuteness: 5/10
Name coolness: 3/10
Danger level: 10/10
Death: 2 to 3 minutes
Size: Box (Head) can grow up to 30cm in diameter and the tentacles up to 3 meters.
Weapon of choice: About 15 tentacles on each corner of the Box. Each tentacle has thousands of stinging cells or nematocysts.
Location: Waters around Asia and Australia.
What to do when you see one: Swim for your life.
Before you die: Its toxins attack the heart, nervous systems and skin cells. The venom is so painful you’ll most likely die from a heart failure or go into a shock then drown.
What to do while you are still alive: Soak yourself in vinegar for 30 seconds. Vinegar has acetic acid, which disables the box jelly’s nematocysts that have not yet discharged into the bloodstream.
If you survive: You will wish you were dead because you will experience excruciating pain for weeks after the attack.
Comments:
I’ve been stung by 2 jellyfishes one after another and it hurt like a real mother fucker. Take my word for it, you don’t want to get fucked by a jellyfish, especially not this Box Jellyfish. People say its the most painful experience ever. And I believe them. To read about my jellyfish experience click here.

I just noticed that they all have bright colors. An octopus has 3 hearts and blue blood. So if you see one and you want to fight it, make sure you stab it in the heart 3 times.
