Immortal Fish

"Turritopsis nutricula is a hydrozoan, and it’s considered by scientists to be the only animal that cheated death. They’re able to return to polyp stage due to a cell change in the external screen (Exumbrella), which allows them to bypass death. As far as scientists have been able to find out, this change renders the hydrozoa virtually immortal."
