How sad.. Sting rays have poison in there stingers. It's very painful if you get stung by one.. Normally they don't even pay you any attention when your diving. He was probably over top of it and startled it..

How does that work speedy? Seriously, does the ray back into you at sonic speeds or does it whip you?

The stingrays tail acts like a whip.. If you step on one it will whip it's tail around and sting you.. It has a barb in the the tail like this pic.
