So that was an hour and a half in the water. Hour and a half swimming in there. Stung twice. You sting blade as you see on on the fingers here, quite a nasty sting that was and I removed it within in the water which sting blade. And now an hour and a half later, an hour later, arbitrarily really nothing's a bit of redness. I'm confident in getting stung again. I can swim back to the boat and I can be stung again and I've got No Fear. We are off northern Corsica. The sea here is incredible, beautiful coastline has nothing on it. And here really there shouldn't be any many jellyfish, but there are because the predators have been diminished. A lot of times you can't swim in these waters because of jellyfish. Now there is a solution to it. There is a recognized protocol which is sting blade that is distinct blade made in England, made in Great Britain and proudly made in Great Britain and. Deploy it to your arm. We're currently here in Sardinia, so me and Mr. Sting Blade are going to do some yacht knocking on the jet skis. Right, let's go. We were just going out to all the yachts and we're speaking to some of the crew. I asked a lady, after many of your guests, do they go swimming? Have they been stung by jellyfish? And she said on this boat, no one goes in the sea because they're so scared of getting stung by jellyfish. So we kind of get tender, drop them off at the beach and then they may dip their toes in. But it's completely put people off going in the city. So hopefully this this can help get give people the confidence to go back out there. See, when you do get stung, if you still don't know what to do, it has all the instructions in here. Help save your holiday. Let's do it. The prototype I was most impressed with, to be honest, was the personal sport, which to me represented something when you're in the water that you can use immediately. That was game changer. I think I've just been stuck. I've just been stung. And I had to use the sting base for the first time. What you have to do is. Take it off, making sure you don't touch the area, grab the blade and you scrape the micro bulbs off. But you have to wash it every time so you're not putting the poison back into your skin. There's simplicity of Stingray philosophies. Take the poison off you before you put it in. Don't touch it so. Here is the thing, we're going to skip blade. It's difficult area here, but what I'm doing now is I'm just removing with this with the sting blade as much as I can. Few jellies on the way. They saw some of the team got hit, but they've got sling blades so they're confident to go back in again. So this is the thing about professional that this is one that you would go on. You would have in the in the rear area, the yacht perhaps in the back, you know, a crew member can whip it off the wall. It's got the QR code on it, which explains to the splint the sting blade protocol and you're having to treat someone as a crew member. You're taking it over the area. You see it doesn't cut. Just keep bleeding by having the confidence now to go back in the water. You can swim along with Stingray sport here you can. Treat yourself on the go like I did yesterday and you keep getting stung, but you know that you're going to be fine. And every boat should have. Every sailing York should have one. Every dingy should have one. Every shore site establishment should have one. Every beach bar should have one. Anybody who has a business relating to the city should have a sting blade because it answers that one question people ask. We've just been stung by a jellyfish. What do we do?
