Re: Flesh Eating Water Lice!!!!!
If one keeps moving sea-lice are not normally that big a problem.
The kid basically stood stationary for 30 minutes allowing the sea-lice to gather for a feed.
PS: I am sometimes allergic to their bite and so when they are about I make sure I move on. Some beaches have more of them than others. ie May's Bay in the Whitsundays always seems to be infested with the little buggers.

Re: Flesh Eating Water Lice!!!!!
it was on TV this morn
Ch 7 had some "marine biologist" who said in 20 years, he's never seen this before
He reckons it might be jellyfish larvae
The poor young lad had blood all over his lower legs, resembled those people in Spain or Italy at the tomato festival
where they jump into huge barrels of tomatoes and stomp on them.
His dad went to the beach with some meat, put it in a large bucket or sieve,
and took video of the little buggers going beserk in a feeding frenzy
The world's gone mad, are these the end times? The Apocalypse?

Koby Stevens
ST KILDA kept its season alive with a brilliant eight-point win against West Coast on Sunday but a far more unusual opposition almost derailed its season.
Sea lice.
The creepy crawlers have been discovered at Brighton beach, eating away at the flesh of unsuspecting swimmers enjoying a winter dip.
Some of those who have submerged their feet in the water have walked out with their legs covered in blood.
It was a fate that almost befell some of the Saints, had it not been for a mass email sent from high performance manager Matt Hornsby.
At St Kilda, players do paired recovery and go to whichever beach or pool they like, rather than doing it as an entire group.
"Me and Sammy Gilbert, we were actually on our way down to the beach and we got the email from Matt Hornsby, our fitness guy, and he told us not to go in," Stevens told reporters at Moorabbin on Monday.
"The whole group got the message about the young bloke who nearly had his feet eaten off down at the beach."
The story of Sam Kanizay, the 16-year-old that Hornsby referred to, wasn't foreign for Stevens, who was instrumental in beating the Eagles, picking up 27 disposals and 13 contested possessions.
"A couple of weeks ago, one of my mates was down at the water and he came out and had blood on his feet as well," Stevens said.
"You really need your feet for this game so we were advised not to go down there," he said.
Earlier this season, Stevens had his Saints debut delayed by a bout of food poisoning after he ate "off chicken" at a hotel while making the trip up to Albury for a pre-season game against Sydney.
He lost eight kilograms during the week he spent in hospital.

My pool is currently a balmy 12 degrees. They can have a recovery swim in it if they wish. I'll turn on the spa heating and watch them from there.
i am Melbourne Skies - sometimes Blue Skies, Grey Skies, even Partly Cloudy Skies.

It would be our luck to go for a dip in the week leading up to our next GF and have half the team eaten by water lice.

Re: Flesh Eating Water Lice!!!!!
We should have introduced them into the water supply system for the visitors showers at Moorabbin.
The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules.

I'm sure there's a plague of locusts in there somewhere. Will the MCG become a dustbowl
and the teams play on dirt?

These flesh eating sea lice could be the perfect pre-season routine for losing excess body fat (Brandon White, are you listening? hahaha)
just sit in the shallows for 30 minutes, lose 4 inches from the waistline!
Imagine the infomercial- just like liposuction, only cheaper!

Re: Flesh Eating Water Lice!!!!!
It just so happens that Sharknado 5: Global Swarming (2017), a made for television movie, went to air for the first time on August 7.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt6298780/
I haven't even seen Sharknado 1. I was about to say I have a lot of viewing to catch up on, but with the film festival now in full swing, I'm going to have to pass.
