why do jellyfish only sting when theres physical contact
why doesnt the electricity just surge throughout the entire ocean
why dont jellyfish rule the world
Fun fact! Jellyfish don’t use electricity to sting you. Whenever they feel pressure against their tentacles, it causes its cells to rapidly send out these stingers into your skin that then release its venom. Like this:
They are called nematocysts. They are what make box jellies and other fun lil critters so dangerous, because without these wee little daggers, the venom would have no way to get into your skin.
And yet something as thin as nylon stockings or pantyhose is enough to protect you, they are so small.
So if you’re scared of jellyfish? Wear sexy sheer undergarments into the sea like the regal creature you are.
I’m going to reblog this again because that is some of the best advice I have ever gotten on this blog.
Hey! So my first semester project for my 3D Modelling/Texturing etc. program was to take a 2d concept and turn it into a fully 3D scene. So that’s what this is! We only needed a still image for the final but I’m probably going to spend some time rendering a rotating video later on when I can.
It took about 4 weeks! And of course, thanks to Griffin Mcelroy and all the Mcelroys for The Adventure Zone, Magnus, and the Voidfish. Wish I could’ve gotten this done in time for the finale. Thanks boys!
