Watch what happens when a jellyfish gets caught in a bubble ring
- 6 years ago
A snorkeler filmed a jellyfish getting caught in a bubble ring in the Mediterranean Sea off of Spain's Balearic Islands.
“I was trying to make a video of the jellyfish swimming trough the bubble ring, but the ring hit the jellyfish,” the snorkeler said. “Those bubble rings are just air in a vortex current, so the jellyfish was stuck in that stream twisting and spinning so fast.”
The snorkeler added that the bubble ring didn’t hurt jellyfish, since they are mostly made of water and are used to strong waves and currents.
The video was filmed Menorca in June 2017.
