yeah rays are NASTY animals, after seeing this I'm just glad that the one that I ran into in the bahamas didn't get me.
As the professor who was 20 feet away said to me "I don't know who jumped higher, you or the ray" and that tail came up too.... I completely didn't see the thing, and it didn't see me til the tail went swinging. wonder if his wife Terry ever saw him dying like this....

Theres a book called "Tales of a Shaman Apprentice" by Mark Plotkin, and he goes and studies with the Shamans about medicinal Herbs and their culture in South America (Most in Suriname). He talks about the natives and their fishing expeditions, and the most feared animal in the jungle/Savanna isnt some large mammal that can maul you, not a lion, but the Stingray. He witnesses a guy get stung with a Shaman next to him so he can prepare the herbs, and the guy still is inches from losing his foot.
Hes got 2-3 Kids, dunno which.
