If you ever encounter this blue and yellow beauty, back away in a hurry its
bite is usually painless, so you might not know you've been bitten until
it's too late.

So, what happens if you're bitten by a blue-ringed octopus? First, the
venom blocks nerve signals throughout the body, causing muscle numbness.
Other symptoms include nausea, vision loss or blindness, loss of senses and
loss of motor skills. Ultimately, it will cause muscle paralysis—including
the muscles needed for humans to breathe, leading to respiratory arrest.
There is no known antidote, but victims can be saved if artificial
respiration is started immediately.
