Beach-goers try to save a massive barrel jellyfish

This is the moment beach-goers tried to save a massive barrel jellyfish that washed up onto a British beach.

The video shows several people selflessly dragging the marine animal back into the waters on Bovisand beach, Devon, on August 24 at around 4pm.

Though members of the public managed to heave the jelly back into the sea, James Weir, 18, said it washed up again an hour later - dead.

James, of Plymouth, said: "I was sat on the beach with my family and saw loads of people gathered around and I saw that there had been lots of barrel jellyfish recently, so I thought it was probably one of those.

This video was recorded August 24th 2019 at 4pm.
