How to Survive a Stonefish Sting

Stonefish are the most, dangerous, venomous fish on Earth. Their 13 dorsal spines are so sharp that they could pierce through a soft-soled shoe.
Each spine contains 5 to 10 mg of venom. And if you get stung, intense pain and swelling can last for weeks, and it could take months before you fully recover. How fast can they attack you? Why is it important to shuffle your feet? And should you treat your wounds with hot, or cold water?
