These things terrify me when I was living north. Pub wisdom said that when it's overcast, the sting isn't as bad.

Anything with a box should not be trusted and will sting you bad.

There is a good side to getting stung, you get morphine, mmmm, almost worth it

most toxic creature on earth they say...

Having grown up in TSV windsurfing if there is enough wind to plane on a shortboard (pre super wide goat boats) then you are usually right for stingers because they swim out away from shore to avoid getting punded/ dumped on beach. Told a young raafie this that I worked with. Course I didn't know the dill was a muppet and wanted to go stand on his new board in 5 knots because it was new. Stung, waambulance etc. how i laughed.
