A man dove face-first into an extremely venomous, peanut-sized jellyfish in waters off northeast Australia and medics flew him to a hospital intensive care unit to treat the potentially fatal sting, officials said Friday. The 29-year-old man, whose name has not been released, was on a yacht Thursday off northeast Queensland state. As a precaution, he was wearing a full-length stinger suit, a lightweight version of a wetsuit that covers everything but the face. But when he dove into the water near South Molle Island, he was immediately stung in the face by a potentially lethal Irukandji jellyfish.
