Slow Motion Jellyfish Sting - Smarter Every Day 120

Tweet ideas to me @SmarterEveryDay Instead of saving for my kids' college, I make videos using the money I would have saved. The thought is it will help educate the world as a whole, and one day generate enough revenue to pay for their education.

Amazing! I always wondered how nematocyst's worked. The diagrams never seemed to explain it properly, but the high speed video is much more helpful. Looks like several of the tubes bounce off the adjacent tentacle. Very interesting!

Very cool! Would love to have played with the electrical trigger. Different currents, electric field strengths or maybe different concentrations of Na or K ions in the surrounding fluid may have different effects.

That was pretty awesome. Now I'm a million times more terrified of jellyfish. Love how Patreon/people-power is allowing scientific history to take place!
