A 10-ton fishing boat has been sunk by gigantic jellyfish off eastern Japan.No, really.
Each of the jellyfish can weigh up to 200 kg and waters around Japan have been inundated with the creatures this year. Experts believe weather and water conditions in the breeding grounds, off the coast of China, have been ideal for the jellyfish in recent months.
