I never saw a live jellyfish until I went to the Kiel on the North Sea in 2004. There were so many giant purple ones in the water there that it was difficult to wade or swim without touching them. Not that it really mattered, though, as they had no discernible sting; they could even be picked up and handled. I estimate the bells were around 20 centimetres in diameter, and that they weighed around two kilograms.
