Ammonia in urine will help neutralize the stingies

I'm doubtful that ammonia is the prescribed treatment. Further, ammonia comprises less than one percent of the volume of human urine.

If one were to do anything to a jelly fish sting it would probably be irrigate it.

[RazoR]

piss on the sting is what scouts taught me

Doesn't urine actually either do nothing or just make it worse?

No idea. See afore mentioned Aloe, which does actually work a charm. Dunes on the Indian Ocean side of South Africa are literally teaming with it. Only cure I've ever used.

Sounds like Russia.

With aloe instead of vodka.


I also have three aloe plants that take up half a cubic meter collectively.

More important than anything else, urine is sterile and sterilizes stuff that it touches while it's still hot. Ammonia in urine as mentioned is very little, the sterile property is more important. That said, if you've got athletes foot, piss on your feet, works wonders.

We get them here in NZ as well, sometimes the beach would be full of them. I have never gotten a sting from them but I've heard it is pretty bad.

I had a friend who managed to step on one once, he was paralyzed for about 12 hours. I on the other hand, stepped on a pretty big one once. While it hurt, there wasn't much to it other than needing to wash it off. I didn't even notice it an hour later. I think the one I stepped on was either dead or getting there though.

Pretty sure pissing on yourself is a myth and the only real benefit is washing the salt from the wounds. e: what Cue said makes sense too.

Vinegar is what you want, that's why there's usually bottles of the stuff lying around outside surf clubs.


Worst ad or worstest ad?

Anyways, lye burns:

(not my hand)

I had lye on my hand for over half an hour with water being dripped on and it didn't really leave too bad of a scar.

[gtphanta]

Screamed like a little boy (I was 6, ok) and tried clawing my way out of the water.

No need to be ashamed, I've seen the toughest blokes around cry after a blue bottle sting. The beach near my relatives where my mum grew up is pretty bad for them but growing up there they could spot them heaps away so luckily I never got stung.


Beach holidays walking up and down the beach popping these with a stick.



Was swimming once with my cousin and my dad after a storm had gone though and my cousin pointed out a box jellyfish going past. She said we'd be right where we were (not far at all from it) with the currents but me and dad still got out of the surf as fast as we could. That's the problem with surf life savers, they are nutters. 10 foot swell? No problem. Shark sighting? meh. Deadly jellyfish? who cares.

We get those a lot eastern coast of South Africa too. Luckily, we have Aloe growing on the dunes. If you don't have that, piss on the sting is what scouts taught me (but seriously, Vinegar is a better bet, besides not causing weird moments with your mates).

True dat - Aloe plant worked the best. I remember the beach at 'Toti having the most, but we used to get them in Durbs as well...

Since we're talking jellyfish in a traditional "That'll kill ya'" kind of way...

I was on a Dept of Sport & Recreation camp at Broken Bay back in the day and a kid brought an abalone type shell over to one of the camp staff to look at. Staff member knocks it flying out of the kids hand, sure enough, a small blue ring octopus was in it.

Obligitory piccy:
Yes, it'll kill you: http://www.barrierreefaustralia.com/...gedoctopus.htm

There's no known antidote. The only treatment is hours of heart massage and artificial respiration until the poison has worked its way out of your system.

Small things, they'll fuck you up. If you didn't read they grow to the size of a golf ball and have enough poison to kill 26 adults.

Why is Australia still inhabitat by humans?
Deadliest creatures on land, water and air. Shit fucks you up so bad, everything is deadly poisonous...

Because humans are known to choose their habitats rationally, rather than just wherever the view is nice.

"You have virtually no chance of surviving the venomous sting of a box jelly fish. The pain is so excruciating and overwhelming that you would most likely go into shock and drown before reaching the shore. "

"he blue-ringed octopus is the size of a golf ball but its poison is powerful enough to kill an adult human in minutes. There's no known antidote"

"Cone shells look very pretty, but several types are known to be very dangerous to humans. The venom of some contains the most potent neurotoxins known to man."

"Approx 15 species of sea snakes can be found on the reef. ALL OF THEM PRODUCE LETHAL VENOM."

"The taipan has the most toxic venom out of all the species worldwide"

"This species found all over the continent is Australia’s most famous deadly spider. The red striped spider has a neurotic venom that induces severe pain,"

"Known as one of Australia’s most deadly creatures, the brown snake has a venom which quickly kills if it goes untreated"

"The darkly colored spiders resembling tarantulas have fangs and chelicerae with ample venom glands, that can even penetrate fingernails or shoes. "

Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with Australia?

VENOM

VENOM: Injected / inserted

Called natural selection. Only the best survive to adulthood in Australia. That is why we are the best at everything.

it's both for the blue-ringed octopus isn't it? it has 2 ways of delivring its venom/poison. one is biting you (venom), the other is releasing it into the water in front of whatever it's threatened by where it is then ingested (poison?).

piss on the sting is what scouts taught me

Doesn't urine actually either do nothing or just make it worse?

More important than anything else, urine is sterile and sterilizes stuff that it touches while it's still hot. Ammonia in urine as mentioned is very little, the sterile property is more important. That said, if you've got athletes foot, piss on your feet, works wonders.

Just pouring a sterile fluid on something does not sterilize it. The fluid sterility is a property of the "sterile fluid" and can't just be transferred to things by contact. In fact the moment you pour a sterile fluid from it's container, there is a incredibly high chance you have just made it non-sterile. This post is so wrong

And yet, using a sterile fluid to cleanse a wound of non-sterile stuff is p. standard. Nobody is arguing the fluid is still sterile afterwards, but the wound has a much lower chance of getting infected now. Seriously, if you had to choose between using a perfectly clear and fresh mountain spring to clean a leg wound and pissing on your own leg, guess which choice would be worse?

That's true, but urine does have a mild-sterilizing property.

Pour gunpowder on the wound and hold a lighter at it. That's how you treat wounds.
