If I recall the story correctly, the dude holding it knew what he was doing and did multiple times. Also he was terminal ill so he really didn’t care if things went wrong.
So I guess who knows even more may be relieved if in favour of consensual euthanasia 🤷♂️

Terminally ill people playing with venomous animals is definitely a choice.
-
They have one of the most potent venoms in the animal kingdom and people apparently often don't even feel the bite. It's also assumed by some scientists that venomous animals with this warning pattern is the reason some people have trypophobia
-
maybe also wasp nests

Is that true about trypophobia? Man that would be wild and so cool if so. I'll need to go read about this...

envenomated
That's a neat one for scrable

If it's "envenomate" it would be good for Spelling Bee

That might've still been a better choice of game than scabble

Is this a real pic or wtf?

Yeah, this is an old one. IIRC, the lady holding it didn't know it was dangerous, just thought it was adorable, then when she posted it and ppl told her, she explained she had a meltdown at how wildly dangerous that situation was and she had no idea

I probably would too in that situation, followed by immense relief that I survived it lol

That's why education isn't just some nice-to-have luxury. Moments like these should make people go "wait, maybe it's a shitty idea that conservatives like the Trump regime oppose proper, widely available and cheap education for everyone".
I sometimes wonder how many lives would not have been lost if those people had known "sea magically disappear from beach mean big wave coming" when that Indian ocean tsunami happened. Instead, many even went to the beach to observe this strange phenomenon.

I don't know
Blue ringed octopus is extremely venomous and their beak is so sharp you might not even feel it when it bites
Wiki
But it's cute
Only good thing is that the venom doesn't have lasting effects if you get artificial respiration in time.
They put you on a ventilator until it wears off, and then you're fine.
But how bitey is it? Why would it even want to bite? What if I'm very very gentle?
It's a blue-ringed octopus, which has one of the most potent poisons known. The person handling it could easily die.
