Those pictures are supposed to be obviously faked, right?devolution365:
OP
I don't think so....
The diver in the faked photo wouldn't be tailing the jellyfish there anyway without getting stung like the devil; still the fact that this critter can hit 2 meters in diameter is pretty amazing.

OP
Didn't see the diver photo. Clearly a PS job.
How about the beached shot? I also saw a few shots elsewhere that appeared genuine.

THe beach shot looks also looks obviously faked to me. The photo in the original post looks genuine, though. It's not that I have a hard time believing in giant jellyfish (the lion's mane up here get pretty big), but I've looked at enough "Weekly World News" magazines in supermarket lineups to be able to recognise a badly-faked photo.dherbman:
