When I was young - about 4 or 5, I lived in New York and we went to the beach all of the time. There used to be jellyfish washed up on the shore, and for some reason I loved to play with them - unfortunately for me, I got stung. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Bad! Bad! - I hope I'll not be stung by a jellyfish. I think it will hurt me very much!
No, but almost. (High School) Since I was able to notice a jellyfish coming to my area, I ran out of the water but unfortunately my friend was the one stung by it. She was really in pain and she was crying because it hurt a lot. We pour vinegar on it so it not hurt that much and to avoid infection that the jellyfish might have. It left a mark in her arms but I'm not too sure that she still has it. We killed the jelly fish because it stuck on her arms while she was running for help. We got it using a stick and we placed in the hot sand. A Good Revenge!

no i have never been stung by a jellyfish! thankfully lol! however when my mother was younger she ran into a jellyfish while swimming at the beach. the way she described it, it is VERY painful and she has the scars on her leg to prove it too! another reason why i dont like swimming in the ocean...besides all the sand lol!
