A BIKINI swim with jellyfish sounds like the most painful past-time on the planet. But as these eye-popping pictures show, a 10-foot-deep dip with these fortunately harmless jellyfish can actually go swimmingly. Toned female tour guide Mikki Docjez, 35, from Palau was demonstrating to excited tourists how safe these golden jellyfish are - despite their hazardous looks. Australian photographer David Kirkland travelled to the Jellyfish Lake of Palau in the Pacific Ocean to capture the incredible scene of this bikini babe taking the plunge with thousands of jellyfish
