Just needs an Autechre song for a backing track:

Off the coast of Cornwall no less!

There's something in the water over there! 

Cnidarian uprising initialized

Any way to gauge the age of something like that?  They regenerate, right?  That thing's probably a million years old.

I wonder if it witnessed RDJ's near drowning back in the day.

I have a phobia of jellyfish. Like, imagine swimming, chillin, having a good time and then you see a few of these fuckers floating around. fffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu

you know these fuckers have gotta have like crazy intelligence that we're not aware of like fungi.

Jellyfish don't generally live very long (a few months) but some can live for 20 years + in cavity. A few species have also been found to be hypothetically immortal (through a process known as transdifferentiation) so long as they can avoid disease & predation.

Or clever use of perspective.
