They are poisonous, but the venmon is more uncomfortable for humans then deadly. What actually is the problem is the barb itself. That can cause serious damage, and from what I read he was stung through his heart so it punctured his heart- which has a very very slim chance of survival since usually that means the oxygenated and nonoxygentated blood starts mixing. Usually, they are very calm animals.
I can't believe he died. So sad.
