Cute, tiny, man-o-war.
Very much like a man-o-war, but you can pick it up without being stung badly, which is good because a lot of people think it's plastic.
Yeah, absolutely don't mess around with man-o-wars. So this is as big as it gets?
Yup. Here's a pic at full size. You can see what I mean about people thinking it's plastic.
Fascinating!
