Title: When giant jellyfish attack!!!
Post by: Stratos on July 20, 2009, 04:21:51 AM
Who would have thought? (http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/asiapcf/07/19/japan.jellyfish/index.html?eref=rss_topstories)

Giant Nomura's jellyfish apparently have been passing through Japanese fishing villages the past few years and destroying nets and catches. They are nearing them again this year.

These guys can get over 6 feet long and weigh up to 450 pounds.

Reminds me of an episode of Pokemon (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyGc7quAq2s)

Why you and GP? GP hasn't even commented on this thread yet.

She's too afraid to see whats inside. She mentioned once having a bit of a phobia to large creatures in aquatic settings.

That loch ness monster type thing in Super Mairo 64 freaks us both out ;)
