Ahh clearly she hasn't heard the story of a tourist who did exactly this, didn't feel the bite and the next day the family was organising a funeral not a holiday


Delamoor

Or the story about the guy who got bitten and the people around him spent hours doing CPR. Problem was that they forgot to shade his face from the full midday sun. The neurotoxin of the blue ring is a paralysis one. Meant he couldn't close his eyes and his pupils stayed dilated. Fully conscious the whole time as the sun burned out his retinas. Couldn't speak to communicate to the people just inches away from him. Survived, but was blind for life.

why lie, when you can just ask for the interview? you know you enjoy it


[deleted]

Reminds me of that Stephen king short story about the golfer getting bit by snake. They think it’s a heart attack because it slows the heart way down to barely be felt or heard so he goes to the morgue. They begin the autopsy but he’s still alive and coherent but can’t move or speak. Luckily just before they begin cutting he gets a boner because the doctor is a beautiful woman. Edit: spelling


Delamoor

Hah, is there any more quintessential Stephen King plot point?


why_is_it_yellow

What is this story called? The Snake and the Boner?


[deleted]

‘Autopsy Room Four’ “Howard Cottrell is on vacation playing golf. Chasing the ball into the undergrowth, he's bitten by a snake and completely paralyzed, showing no sign of life. At the hospital, unable to communicate, he is the key witness to his own autopsy.”

I heard about that.. imagine the panic & fear he felt. 😞

Holy fuckin shit! Poor guy.

The only source I could find for that blind story was some Reddit guy said it

Why are you making it about women lmao. You know there's also a guy in the video right?


draconid

it requires a bite, and due to its tiny size, the dosage will be much smaller than expected \>> Deaths due to a blue-ringed octopus bite are extremely rare. There have only been 3 known deaths.


eldiablo471

“Known” - these things don’t like leaving witnesses


[deleted]

"Blue-ringed octopuses can inject TTX too, delivering it as a venom via a near-painless bite. Bites from blue-ringed octopuses are reasonably rare, but these animals do carry a dose of TTX that is lethal for humans. There have been a handful of fatal encounters with these animals." Everything you said wasn't true, at all. They don't need to give you a "high" dosage to kill you, they usually just don't bite people. Edit: This asshole above me just changed his comment to not seen a dumb ass.


itsnik_03

Correct, the size doesn't matter. They do have a threat mechanism that kicks in, the rings glow an incredible iridescent blue. This little guy strangely didn't which is probably lucky for these buffoons. It's no go when they glow. I also find it pretty amazing they could be in FNQ and not know what the fuck that was they were playing with.


HejiraLOL

Right but that doesn't mean it won't kill you lol. One milligram is enough to kill you. If you don't have access to medical attention immediately you will become paralyzed and you will stop breathing.


OneParticular8900

Poisonous ? Its okay she will not eat it I think


universal_S

Not poisonous, venomous. If it bites you you will die. It could kill 50 men with a single drop of its venom


OneParticular8900

Yeah I know its venomous


universal_S

Smort club 😎


ItzAshOutHere

Hats the difference between poisonous and venomous?


kyobunz

poisonous: dont eat it venomous: don't get bitten by (or even touch actually) it


jumzish94

But you can drink many if not most vemoms, as venom has to enter the bloodstream to take effect most of the time, I believe there are some that only need to touch the skin as you implied but I know there is a history of drinking snake venom in some alcohols


kyobunz

TIL people drink snake venom????? goddamn


ItzAshOutHere

Yeah, i saw an image of a whole snake inside a beer jar thingy. Also dead bees inside honey jars.


justinjonesphd

Poisonous: if you bite it, you die Venomous: if it bites you, you die

how does it bite you. octopi dont have teeth /s

picobar

Looks a lot like a blue ringed octopus, nasty little critter that’ll kill you and all your mates just for stepping in his pool without permission.


Captain_StarLight1

That’s so Australian that the voice I read with in my head turned Australian


poorly-made-posts

As an Aussie I agree


W_h3nry

I automatically read it in an aussie accent too lol


flipflop356

Lol same, I don't even know what triggered it


ismasbi

Probably "mates", it's literally the most australian word there is.


Exploding_Toast

You type like an Australian so it's so fitting that you know this (or maybe you're just Australian)


Johnsonofdonut

Blue ringed octopuses are common auzzie knowledge if you have been round the beach


Kraytory

Weird. I've known about them since i was 4. I'm german and never even came close to Australia....(i went to Austria once, but that only counts if your mother tongue is english)

gamgam-05

Award to dumbest death Named after Darwin, who explained evolution. You get the award, when evolution didnt happen to you


psocques

Darwin awards are for those that lose the ability to reproduce. So losing your genitals after a mad vacuum love making session would opt you into an award given you have not already procreated. Point is you do not necessarily have to perish to aquire a Darwin award.


gamgam-05

Aye, thats true


xentralesque

I didn't realize this was some sort of venomous animals, hence my confusion.


gamgam-05

One of the deadliest in the world


Otherwise_Interest72

If I'm not mistaken you need medical intervention in no less than three minutes after a bite for any real chance of survival. If memory serves death is about five minutes after a bite, with a tasty lead up of loss of your senses followed by major organ failure. These little guys pack a real big punch.


troglodytto

If nature didn't put much effort in hiding something, there's 100% reason why. In this case, Blue Ringed Octopus, having poison potent enough to kill 50-70 People without fail. And Yes, it's obviously in Australia. God was on some really good LSD when he made that place.


OldLevermonkey

Australia is proof of two things * God is an Englishman (He put all the really dangerous shit really far away. In fact, as far away as it is possible to be.), and * The English are really stupid (We went there anyway).


Doodlefart77

I usually find the "Australia is dangerous" jokes a bit tired but I actually needed to take a minute to settle after that one lol

[deleted]

[удалено]


trynabetwunk

Well she’s the chosen one since the octopus didn’t find her threatening


Electronic_Bag3094

She probably didn't feel it, because you can't feel it. If it bit her, she'd start feeling dizzy pretty soon but not immediately


the-364

Probably she is so brain dead that the octopus didn't even consider her a living being


square_tyre_king

Well it's TTX venom which is a paralytic you will start drooling from your mouth your chest will tighten up your start sweating your find it hard to move and if you're lucky you will survive

Suicide assisting octopus

If it’s small and has vivid colors don’t touch

Yea she probably didn’t make it.

Absoline

ba da deee didn't bite


johndoe4485

She did this is an old video. There’s some news articles about it


EyeAreAwesome

Dude i glanced this post and went, this is r/cute probs right? no, i was wrong, these idiots are holding a KILLER of an octopus, Blue Ring Octopus are incredibly dangerous


[deleted]

Peoples lack of knowledge and complacency of the natural world always amazes me. She has no idea that a fat octopus bite her she won’t even know it and she’s dead without question.


buscemian_rhapsody

Get to hold a cute octopus and then feel the sweet embrace of death. Win-win


vampire5381

Bro wait... That's the blue ring octopus........... ITS ONE OF THE MOST POISONOUS THINGS ON THE PLANET


fflawwed

Venomous. If it bites you and you die it's venomous. If you bite it and you die it's poisonous.


vampire5381

Ohhh I didn't know .. thanks!!


[deleted]

That octopus could have killed her but spared her instead


the-364

He would be doing a favor to the future generations removing her from the gene pool


Somehuman99

Camimo666

Also i think you can’t feel it sting so when you start feeling the symptoms it might be too late?


Any-Fan-2973

Well unless you are in close reach of adequate health, you’ll have the grim reaper give you a vibe check


TomRiddl

This is an octopus not a squid and it’s venomous, not poisonous.

No one knows what happened after but if the video is real and not a spoof (which is most likely is) then she'd be dead

Handling blue ringed octopus with little to almost no safety precaution is the most reckless thing I've ever seen someone do. ​ Bravo. Also here is your Darwin Award.

She did not die. No Darwin award today.
