Jellyfish from horror to facination

I first became aware of jelly fish when I was 13 years old. I would swim in Sunny Cove outside of Seward Alaska. The water was cold and so was the air. There was a 4' by 6' piece of driftwood we pushed out into the cove so we could jump off. Before I jumped I always checked for jellyfish because in the summer the Lion's Mane jellys were thick and huge. The bell was the size of a dingy and the tentacles stretched 30 feet.
