Stingrays Strike Back!

Something's going on with the stingrays. This article talks about an 81-year-old man who got stung by a stingray that jumped out of the water and stung him. Let me repeat that, a stingray JUMPED out of the water. Strangely enough, people called it a freak accident. Fortunately, the man didn't die but he IS in critical condition after surgery to remove bits of the ray's barb.
What the heck?
Stingrays are out to conquer the world! First Steve Irwin, then EVERYONE ELSE!
The stingray in the latest article died on the boat.
Gosh. Suicide terrorism has reached a new level.On a different note, stingrays have been getting really bad press. They're actually quite pretty and are threatened in the wild. Previously, their venom was used by dentists as anaesthetic, haha, although i hope they didn't use the barb to administer it. They can be as long as 2 metres (that's about a 6 and a half foot man's height... dream guy!) and live from 15 to 25 years old. And, when cooked in the style of panggang, they taste yummy! No no... seriously, it's not their fault the terrorists have learned how to control their minds, leading them to suicide sting for the terrorist cause....
Random stungray facts from National Geographic. Thanks!
