A man in Queensland, Australia, has described his pain to be like ‘fire,’ after a jellyfish latched onto his body during a swimming session on Jan. 6.

Brendan Osborn was swimming at a Twin Waters beach on the Sunshine Coast when a jellyfish, believed to be of the “snotty” species, nestled its tentacles across his back and shoulders.
