And so it begins….

Deceptive title. No single giant jellyfish sunk the boat. Rather, it capsized when trying to haul in a net that was overloaded with numerous large jellyfish(es).

Wasn't this in a Godzilla movie?

Maybe they all jumped into the net to bring down the boat, ala "Finding Nemo"?

Wow, 200 kg jellyfish. That is frightening….. Sounds like good fodder for an undersea horror scenario. Add them on top of the explosion of squid in the Eastern Pacific, and divers have a few new things to worry about.

Attack of the extremely exaggeratingly large jellyfish. The shore line is no longer safe, they'll eat your fish and then they'll eat you.

This looks like a job for Bat Boy! Isn't there a mild mannered reporter on the Weekly World News that can get in touch with him?

Agreed .these small 200 kg scout jellies are just the tip of the jellyberg.

That's it, we need to nuke them from orbit.
