What the parent doesn't mention in the water alongside the croc and box jelly is the irukandji which is extremely common and extremly dangerous as well while being as small as a fingernail.

- A1kmm 3y agoIrukandji are box jellyfish, just tiny small ones.

They all became seriously ill, but survived". That's some dedication to science.
