The scientist has discovered a Jellyfish which can live forever. The immortal creature is now officially known as Turritpsis Dohrnii. The tiny transparent jellyfish is a species of biologically immortal jellyfish that found in Mediterranean sea and in the water of Japan.

This is the only animal which capable of reverting completely to a sexually immature stage after having reached maturity, as Dr Karl Kruszelnicki explains.

The species may not be immoral if it can be eaten by biggest creatures or others natural accident. So, it is not un-killable.

After matured or suffer an attack or starvation or some kind of environmental stress. Instead of dying, its revcert himself into a blob or larva, and then it become a planula and start same process for forever.
