08 August 2019

"You played yourself."
That's what people are saying to Washington fisherwoman Jamie Bisceglia after she put an octopus on her face for a photo competition during a fishing derby.
The little guy ended up latching onto her with its tentacles before biting her, injecting its venom.
<p>Bisceglia described the wound as a mess of blood and pus that forced her to check herself into the hospital two days later.</p><p><strong>Take a look at the photos below and wonder:</strong></p><p><em>"Was it worth it?"</em></p><div id="88b2d" class="rm-shortcode" data-rm-shortcode-id="GO3RLV1567027397"><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-version="4" style=" background:#FFF; border:0;
