Second Human-Sized Jellyfish Spotted Off English Coast

Estimated to be 8 feet long, the second giant barrel jellyfish was spotted by a member of the Fowey Shellfish Company while checking equipment on Tuesday, SWNS reports. The owner of Fowey Shellfish, Will Hancock, was surprised by what he saw.

"I get in the water sometimes to look at our site and out the corner of my eye I saw something that was bigger than me," the 35-year-old Hancock said in comments obtained by SWNS. "It was at least 8 feet long and probably 4 feet wide. It was the biggest one I've ever seen."

The first jellyfish, see below, was spotted on Monday in Falmouth, Cornwall, by a pair of divers who were swimming next to it.
