So basically, it is a colony organism that will sting the hell out of anyone dumb enough to touch it.

Still, it is not an Australian box jellyfish. That one seems to hold the record for killing a human in the shortest time possible.

Is anybody sure that that is all one organism? (I recall some misdrawn Burgess Shale fossils from some while ago.)
