A gorgeous (and safe!) encounter with the Portuguese Man-of-War

Did you love looking into kaleidoscopes as a child? Revisit the mesmerising, shifting colors and shapes in this video of the Portuguese Man-of-War, a relative of the jelly fish whose tentacles deliver a painful sting. Its venom is potent enough to kill a small child.

Photographer Aaron Asnarov, a retired combat photographer for the U. S. Navy, has been photographing these stunning creatures for the past two years.
