They discovered thousands of tiny bites on the teen's legs, almost as if he had been pricked with a pin repeatedly.
"We thought we better clean off this bit of blood and then realized it wasn't washing away," Jane Kanizay, Sam's mother, told Seven News.
"There was no stopping the bleeding," his father told the Washington Post. "We just had to get him to hospital."(This pic from a different incident and person involving the same or a similar sea critter)
""It's a bit like if you allowed hundreds of mosquitoes to keep feeding on your arm for half an hour -- you'd get an extreme reaction then too, but it's not something that people normally do," Reina wrote. He added that people should not be so concerned.
"There's no need to stay out of the water," Reina wrote.Yeah..right..
