I worked in a bee lab and whenever a hornet's nest was to be removed, we went in at night when all the hornets were in the nest and used a cotton ball to plug the entrance. Then get the nest off as quickly as possible and put them into a bag and into a freezer as quick as possible. These were then purchased by pharmaceutical companies for antivenom. Don't drop the nest or you'll have a mess. They are attracted to light in that situation, so best to have a backup setup of lights near a running vacuum or something like that.

I was a roofer for many years. One time, while ripping off a slate roof, I stuck my head inside someone's attic and found an abandoned/dead bees nest, literallyyyy, the size of a Volkswagen. After changing my shorts....it took more than 30 garbage can loads to pull it all out. The way the nest was molded around all the rafters and even around the chimney was truly amazing.
bite? they sting - that's their schtick... they're not spiders... they stab you with their hyperdermic needles attached to their butts and nut venom into you...
Someone told me, that wasps and hornets only do one thing in their life: the moment they are hatched, they instantly go out and kill, they are murder machines and will not stop at nothing. Then there's this guy.
In other countries he would risk a fine. Just sayin'. It's definitely not common sense to kill a species that might get extinguished very soon. I would rethink the way he "treats" them.
I've seen numerous nests like this, and it never ceases to amaze me the complexity of them, and also the exact nature of the comb they form where the larvae hatch. Incredible creatures, but also a nuisance up against a house like this. Good work!!
It's just one "super-organism" example of the species, and just because this one is being a pest. I don't think anyone is actually trying to wipe out the whole species

I had a nest just like that in my backyard, bald faced hornets. My sons friend ran by it without seeing it and was stung on the neck. I called my buddy who is an exterminator and he came by. He asked me to help. I held a pump spray bottle and he used some kind of heavy duty stuff in an aerosol can. He Sprayed it in the hole and I soaked the nest. That nest was humming! We had no protection on and they came out and started to land on me and my knees got weak lol. everything in my body and mind told me to run, but my fear froze me so i didn't . He looked up at me with about 10 of them on his face and calmly said "don't run and stay calm, they will catch you if you do". The ones that landed on me started to fall off and die. I kept spraying the nest while he covered the nest in a black garbage bag and then cut the branch. That was one of the scariest things I ever did. I didn't get stung.
Balls of steel. I flinch like i just got shot in the shoulder and then I run as fast as I can like I'm racing Usan Bolt. Probably why I get stung. Now I just kill these nests as soon as I see them.
Such calmness! I wasn't surprised to see your protective gear later 🙂 I've dealt with a couple of wasp nests close up and they are beautifully constructed right enought. I countered 2-300 or so wasps dead in and around. I was wrapped up totally and with goggles but I was still anxious.Great share . Thank you.
Years ago we were living in a cabin in the Blue Mts. Paper wasps built a nest on the kitchen window. They are not aggressive. We walked past them all summer with no problems. The cool thing was that we could sit at the kitchen table and watch them work and raise their young. When it was hot they sat on the outside of the nest and fanned it. When they left in late fall we carefully removed the nest from the window and kept it for a few months until it fell apart. It was a masterwork of construction!
Saw a few nests that were made of cut up strips of coloured paper that were soaked in a juice that wasps like. The man changed colours every couple of days, the nests were beautiful with many layers of colour.
1:10 That's actually a beautiful natural understated pattern on the nest, with different strips of grey, white, tan, and brown. I would love a shirt or wallpaper with that pattern.
My dad was a bee keeper in addition to his day job at GM. He always said not to remove a bee nest until after the Sun goes down. He said all types of bees go back to their nests when the Sun sets. That way you can kill the whole colony. Every time anyone had a problem with any kind of bee, (hornets, wasps, or bumble bees and occasionally honey bees) my dad was the man they called.
Killing any kind of wasp/hornet/bee colony that isn't an invasive species is pretty despicable tbh. Here in Germany it's illegal and can get you into jail. If you want them gone then you hire someone to relocate them.
@@XMaster340 i was kind of shocked honestly at first when i saw the video, that guy would have gone to jail over here. It makes sense because, look that nest was meters away from anyone, seemed calm all the time. What a waste
i have killed a lot of hornets and yellow jackets. I only use WD-40. It kills them immediately and they don't even fly a single stroke of their wings. It is so much better than that expensive hornet wasp spray. Leave the little tube on it and as soon as it hits the bee it drops dead. Plus, it kills the scent of the nest sigh, so they don't rebuild it right where they were before. Now that is guaranteed. Having to spray 15 20 feet away waists a lotof that wasp spray. Not 4wd-40. Compare prices. You'll be amazed at the price difference. It's not just the Fishermans secret. Lol
Oh my goodness you should have definitely kept a peice of that nest if possible, the color and natural layering is absolutely beautiful. While invasive and annoying you have to admit wasps are incredibly talented!

Hornet#3: If it wasn't for the tape and all that damn dust coming in, we should go sting the crap out of the guy...Hornet#4: I'm feeling sick, think I'm dying.....
Made me wonder if this was such a late season nest, that most of them had either abandoned the nest or already died due to the colder weather. It seemed like there were hardly any hornets there even in the beginning. When was this filmed?
Yeah, you can actually see his breath in the beginning. Definitely very late in the season. In season they’re flying in and out nonstop like Heathrow at Thanksgiving time.
Well good..i love all nature, I'm glad most survived!! ...i hate to see people destory what god gave us on this earth...if you just leave them along. They won't bother you!!..
Ha! I bought my house on a half acre for less than a months rent in Malibu! Down side is, the nearest shopping is a WalMart, 40 miles away... The nearest 4 lane road is 30 miles away, in the other direction!
Last time I had a nest like that, it was white faced hornets as well. I went out at 9:30AM, after they had been busy for a while. "Hey guys," I said, "would you mind moving. That's not convenient for me." "Sure, friend!" they replied "we will be out by tomorrow!" Wouldn't you know it, the next day the nest was gone. The hornets were happy to leave. At least, that's what the exterminator told me anyway. I don't know. I wasn't there. Anything could have happened. He seemed trustworthy though so I believe him.
He looks like ThatSlappableJerk and sounds like Chris Griffin, all while having enough balls to breathe in Chuck Norris' direction. subscription earned.
I believe more of the dust should have been applied near the top of the nest because the insects often congregate on the older, larger combs. Much of the dust would fall and hit the lower combs, too. BTW, the insect being held at 8:57 is a male (as is obvious by the protruding genitalia) which is incapable of stinging.
Honestly can't feel bad for those things, since he's just beating them at their own, cruel game. Unlike bees, these bullies sting for the sake of stinging, knowing they can easily get away with it. So it's really a taste of their own medicine.
They don't sting for the sake of stinging. They sting to defend their nests which are often preyed upon by larger animals in search of the grubs. These types of insects keep other insects pests under control.
As far as I know hornets are usually pretty calm and not aggressive. They don't sting unless they feel threatened. Wasps on the other hand... well, they're a bit more aggressive
@@morningstar-art nah, their both assholes. Honey bees will completely ignore you unless directly threatened. Hornets and wasps will delibrately fly around your head and get in your face trying to pick a fight, for no reason, no nest in sight. Ever try camping? God forbid you have any food, because they are automatically entitled to fight you for it lol
I really enjoy your videos. Couple of questions: 1. Is the white powder you pumped into the nest a pesticide? 2. Is the material from the paper hives and the combs used for anything after they're removed?
No I'm no expert on hornets so I can't answer the second question but more than likely he pumped smoke/dust in the hive because it blocks pheromones the wasps use to communicate, so they are less likely to attack
It’s an insecticide. We had a removal of yellow jackets down into a driveway crack and the guy used a white powder called Delta Dust. It eliminated the problem! I bet this is similar.
Delta Dust puffed into the main entrance at night time saves the extra steps of using duct tape. They spread the dust among themselves, and the nest is full of dead bees the next day. Did that on a basketball sized bald-face hornet nest a few years ago. Worked like a charm.
Don't use Delta dust. Tempo dust(from the same company) is MUCH more effective. I only used delta as a backup if I ran out of Tempo. Source: I'm a licensed pest control technician.
.. and bees don't want to sting because they die. Hornets & wasps have smooth stingers (the egg-layers; only females sting), and can repeatedly attack.
Then you're taking extra steps to set up lighting and working in the dark, including climbing up and down a ladder. It was a piece of duct tape, he didn't build a whole structure 🙄
They would have swarmed as soon as they heard the real of duct tape - or any extraneous sound for that matter. This must be a late season nest. Good idea though, if you can pull it off, maybe next summer ! Would love to see that !
You’ve got balls of steel. Also how do you know which cells are queen cells? And thanks for answering my question about queen hornets. We had some unwelcome visitors build a nest over at one of the sheds on our house and thankfully my dad went out in time with the bye-bye spray. He thought they were Asian giant hornets but once I told him that asian giant hornets build their nest in the ground and after describing these gals he realized that they were bald faced hornets.
@@wasphunter7131 thanks. My friend sent me a TikTok video and in the video this guy was wondering why his parents got power but he didn’t. Went outside to figure it out and there was a bald faced nest right under the transformer.
@4th_Lensman_of_the_apocalypse true but in some cases they can be pests and not only are bald faced hornets pests, they’re also dangerous in some cases.
Kudos for being brave enough to even get close enough to duct tape. Could have been a clever or foolish move. Thankfully for you it worked out as a clever one.
RUclips demonetized my channel it’s crazy they are recommending my videos, I have a open appeal but @youtube has not responded yet. I really hope they let me know what changed my channel has been active for 5 years without a single violation I provide a helpful service I get killing bugs is cruel to some but it’s literally what my job is
@@HudsonDoesRUclipsthey claimed my channel is animal abuse, how can you kill something without harming it? I get some of my methods are not common but they are all in the realm of pest control spray adhesive is no different then a common glue board trap and spray foam is made for insects now, so even when I’m using other products it’s still something you would want to see how it works. Sometimes I crush them I see how that could be cruel but they were treated with pesticide I’m actually lowering the amount of time they suffer by giving a fast squash 🤷 I’d really like to know what I’m not allowed to do but they are super vague with things. Fingers crossed that it was some kind of mistake and they bring me back after this appeal
I think the best one was the guy who ran a couple of pieces of pvc int the nest and set off a couple of bottle rockets up the pvc. A couple of bangs and a big grey cloud. Hilsrious!
@@geneb5482 You just have to make sure you have a quick getaway vehicle. I'd leave my YZ 250 (running) propped up on a dead tree limb close by. Fire up the M-80.....throw it hard into the paper nest then run like crazy to my bike. Never got stung but came close a bunch of times. Hornets can fly pretty fast.
I love your videos. I hate stinging insects. I had a nest under a hinged cover on a propane tank years ago. I went at night, and carefully slid a large pickle jar over the nest, and covered it with cardboard. After I shook them up and got them really pissed off at me, I stuck them in a microwave oven for a couple of minutes. POPCORN HORNETS!! that was a good show. You should make a video. I am sure everyone would love it!!
What does the dust do, other than I guess make them more docile? It didn't appear to kill them, they were still able to fly and crawl afterward. I am not a professional, but I normally use spray stuff and it kills them pretty quick.
Delta or Sevin dust takes 1-2 days to kill them neurologically. Basically keeps them from returning. It doesn't stun them in the time he removes the nest. TBH I'm not sure why he does it if he's going to physically destroy the nest immediately anyway. I use dust so I don't have to mess with the nest, they're just dead and gone 1-2 days later.
@@jdp5704 Tempo dust, from the same company that makes delta is much more effective. It has way more knockdown power. Still takes awhile for them to die, but they are incapacitated much quicker with Tempo.
I'm surprised this guy has the balls to go on a high ladder with no one holding it while mucking around with a wasp nest that could potentially hospitalize him. Such bravery and great video
I can't fathom being *within sight* of a horner's nest and not having a panic attack lmfao. I hope to one day find even half the courage this dude has. ....I'd still stay the hell away from wasp's nests though. Just out of general principle 😅
Real, my grandma died because she was smoking a LOT. She was expected to live for another 30 years but she died, due to lung cancer. It is sad how smoking can take away 20 years from your life

@@dillionmaxwell5451 A dead nest collection, not live active ones!
6:05 what did bro do he just got smushed on the wall for no reason
“ *Don’t you bite me buddy* !”
* crushes violently *
You honestly make my day every time you upload a video. You might not have thousands of views but the your view to like ratio is currently about 1 for 3. Most channels are lucky to get 1 for 10. Nuff said 👌
I posted a link in the comments to my auto channel also finally got around to doing a project car video everyone has been asking for. Thanks for the support my awesome viewers are what keeps me going to grow this channel.

The hornet coming out at 3:10 like it was after the first tower collapse on 9/11. 😐
This man looks and sounds like he's the cool father of the skater kid from a sitcom in the 2000s
Him singing while crushing Hornets its th funniest thing I've seen today
Hornet #1: 'Who's the genius who decided we needed a shiny front door over our entrance hole?' Hornet #2: 'I'll bet it's that big bloke I saw on a ladder who was screwing around with a roll of something or other.... Hornet#3: If it wasn't for the tape and all that damn dust coming in, we should go sting the crap out of the guy...Hornet#4: I'm feeling sick, think I'm dying.....
Bro literally hit him with the "I think I'm dying" LMAOOOOO
😂
Did my man just build a fucking hornet concentration camp?💀
Actually, the hornets built it.
This man destroyed it.
Progress.
The texture and color of the wasp nest is oddly beautiful.
Made me wonder if this was such a late season nest, that most of them had either abandoned the nest or already died due to the colder weather. It seemed like there were hardly any hornets there even in the beginning. When was this filmed?
The video was uploaded November of last year probably right around that time
Yes thats correct, no need to wonder
Also takes them some time to come out and attack a threat, compared to Bees defending their turf.
Yeah, you can actually see his breath in the beginning. Definitely very late in the season. In season they’re flying in and out nonstop like Heathrow at Thanksgiving time.
Well good..i love all nature, I'm glad most survived!! ...i hate to see people destory what god gave us on this earth...if you just leave them along. They won't bother you!!..
Why is no one mentioning how beautiful and colorful the nest is...
Right I keep some of them when they are crazy big my garage is full of nests
As a Californian, it always amazes me to see backyards this f'kn big. And it's like every house too!
I live closer to the city I’m in Chicago but most my removals are out in the country in Illinois makes me want to move out there all the time
Ha! I bought my house on a half acre for less than a months rent in Malibu!
Down side is, the nearest shopping is a WalMart, 40 miles away... The nearest 4 lane road is 30 miles away, in the other direction!
Last time I had a nest like that, it was white faced hornets as well. I went out at 9:30AM, after they had been busy for a while.
"Hey guys," I said, "would you mind moving. That's not convenient for me."
"Sure, friend!" they replied "we will be out by tomorrow!"
Wouldn't you know it, the next day the nest was gone. The hornets were happy to leave.
At least, that's what the exterminator told me anyway. I don't know. I wasn't there. Anything could have happened.
He seemed trustworthy though so I believe him.
Bro is way too chill to be standing right next to a hornet nest
"Don't you bite me buddy!"
*Proceeds to brutally crack his back open*
Bro, my anxiety went off the charts just looking into that nest...
He looks like ThatSlappableJerk and sounds like Chris Griffin, all while having enough balls to breathe in Chuck Norris' direction. subscription earned.
Hell yeah, I deadass searched for someone to mention that he sounds like Chris Griffin lmao
I believe more of the dust should have been applied near the top of the nest because the insects often congregate on the older, larger combs. Much of the dust would fall and hit the lower combs, too. BTW, the insect being held at 8:57 is a male (as is obvious by the protruding genitalia) which is incapable of stinging.
My secret code name when I worked undercover was Protruding Genitalia
He physically destroyed the nest so it doesn't really matter where it was dusted anyway. Nest is gone and any survivors have moved on.
@@ryanfederau What does that even mean? 💀
I like how those nests have the colors of all the cedar fences from the neighborhood that they are in
Legends say that this man is still taping hornet nests somewhere out there till this day
The hornets when you locked them in
"MICHEAL! DONT LEAVE ME HERE! MICHAEL! HELP ME!" *Banging noises*
Honestly can't feel bad for those things, since he's just beating them at their own, cruel game. Unlike bees, these bullies sting for the sake of stinging, knowing they can easily get away with it. So it's really a taste of their own medicine.
For real, hornets are assholes!
They don't sting for the sake of stinging. They sting to defend their nests which are often preyed upon by larger animals in search of the grubs. These types of insects keep other insects pests under control.
As far as I know hornets are usually pretty calm and not aggressive. They don't sting unless they feel threatened. Wasps on the other hand... well, they're a bit more aggressive
@@morningstar-art Oh, I confused hornets for wasps lmao 💀
@@morningstar-art nah, their both assholes. Honey bees will completely ignore you unless directly threatened. Hornets and wasps will delibrately fly around your head and get in your face trying to pick a fight, for no reason, no nest in sight. Ever try camping? God forbid you have any food, because they are automatically entitled to fight you for it lol
3:19 NOOO YOU SQUISHED THE HORNET😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
MY JAW DROPPED WITH A LITTLE GIGGLE WHEN HE SQUISHED IT LMAOAO
@@Itz_Mothii OMG SAME😭😭😭
It was kinda satisfying…
THE SOUND😭😭😭
what was he gonna do, save it?? 😭😭
I really enjoy your videos.
Couple of questions:
1. Is the white powder you pumped into the nest a pesticide?
2. Is the material from the paper hives and the combs used for anything after they're removed?
No I'm no expert on hornets so I can't answer the second question but more than likely he pumped smoke/dust in the hive because it blocks pheromones the wasps use to communicate, so they are less likely to attack
@@teomcnasty Thanks
It’s an insecticide. We had a removal of yellow jackets down into a driveway crack and the guy used a white powder called Delta Dust. It eliminated the problem! I bet this is similar.
ITS CRA-
Bro I was thinking the same thing
Love your energy bro 😂 especially face to face with the place monsters live
I like how each time he holds a wasp in his glove he goes like “hey buddy don’t do that” and then literally just *crushes* them between his fingers
Delta Dust puffed into the main entrance at night time saves the extra steps of using duct tape. They spread the dust among themselves, and the nest is full of dead bees the next day. Did that on a basketball sized bald-face hornet nest a few years ago. Worked like a charm.
They're not bees, I don't understand why most people switch from hornet to bee like it's the same. Especially since one should never ever kill bees.
Don't use Delta dust. Tempo dust(from the same company) is MUCH more effective. I only used delta as a backup if I ran out of Tempo. Source: I'm a licensed pest control technician.
.. and bees don't want to sting because they die. Hornets & wasps have smooth stingers (the egg-layers; only females sting), and can repeatedly attack.
Then you're taking extra steps to set up lighting and working in the dark, including climbing up and down a ladder.
It was a piece of duct tape, he didn't build a whole structure 🙄
_NEXT STEP: guys, humans are developing a new war tactic, _*_duct tape._*_ Also wasps: let's build two more hidden exits_ 🤣haha
Other surrounding wasps and those inside biting a new opening: **wheeze laughs**
They would have swarmed as soon as they heard the real of duct tape - or any extraneous sound for that matter. This must be a late season nest. Good idea though, if you can pull it off, maybe next summer ! Would love to see that !
the leaves are all green though? That was my intial thought as well.
@@primesspct2 not all trees change with the seasons. Where I live 0 trees change colour, and stay bright green all year round.
@@TickleTurtle must not get too cold either
@@mycelia_owstays around -5 c in the winters and gets to 10 c in the summer.
You’ve got balls of steel. Also how do you know which cells are queen cells? And thanks for answering my question about queen hornets. We had some unwelcome visitors build a nest over at one of the sheds on our house and thankfully my dad went out in time with the bye-bye spray. He thought they were Asian giant hornets but once I told him that asian giant hornets build their nest in the ground and after describing these gals he realized that they were bald faced hornets.
The worker cells and flush with the comb the ones that stick up allot are the queen cells
@@wasphunter7131 thanks. My friend sent me a TikTok video and in the video this guy was wondering why his parents got power but he didn’t. Went outside to figure it out and there was a bald faced nest right under the transformer.
@4th_Lensman_of_the_apocalypse true but in some cases they can be pests and not only are bald faced hornets pests, they’re also dangerous in some cases.
@4th_Lensman_of_the_apocalypse You can put a nest in your home, then :)
@4th_Lensman_of_the_apocalypsemosquitos are too, but they deserve the hate
This is real asmr. So soothing and calming. I feel so tranquility and peace.
2:25 …they’re waiting for you inside your car 😜
Kudos for being brave enough to even get close enough to duct tape. Could have been a clever or foolish move. Thankfully for you it worked out as a clever one.
Not many were there because they rented it out as an Air Bee & Bee. 🐝
😆
Wow, that was a relatively EASY removal for you! I expected so many more hornets! Good job!
Ahh, finally wasp hunter is being recommended to me again.
RUclips demonetized my channel it’s crazy they are recommending my videos, I have a open appeal but @youtube has not responded yet. I really hope they let me know what changed my channel has been active for 5 years without a single violation I provide a helpful service I get killing bugs is cruel to some but it’s literally what my job is
@ dang they really demonetized your channel because you did your job?? That sucks.
@@HudsonDoesRUclipsthey claimed my channel is animal abuse, how can you kill something without harming it? I get some of my methods are not common but they are all in the realm of pest control spray adhesive is no different then a common glue board trap and spray foam is made for insects now, so even when I’m using other products it’s still something you would want to see how it works. Sometimes I crush them I see how that could be cruel but they were treated with pesticide I’m actually lowering the amount of time they suffer by giving a fast squash 🤷 I’d really like to know what I’m not allowed to do but they are super vague with things. Fingers crossed that it was some kind of mistake and they bring me back after this appeal
I still reckon the expanding foam is the most fun. Do some more of them please!
I think the best one was the guy who ran a couple of pieces of pvc int the nest and set off a couple of bottle rockets up the pvc. A couple of bangs and a big grey cloud. Hilsrious!
That nest must’ve been vibrating with angry energy from the inside
the anticipation of thinking 10,000 hornets would go flying at the camera was crazy
That is by far the calmest Hornet nest I've ever seen. And I've blown a many of them up with M-80's when I was a young man.
M80 would be more fun though.
@@geneb5482 You just have to make sure you have a quick getaway vehicle. I'd leave my YZ 250 (running) propped up on a dead tree limb close by. Fire up the M-80.....throw it hard into the paper nest then run like crazy to my bike. Never got stung but came close a bunch of times. Hornets can fly pretty fast.
I love your videos. I hate stinging insects. I had a nest under a hinged cover on a propane tank years ago. I went at night, and carefully slid a large pickle jar over the nest, and covered it with cardboard. After I shook them up and got them really pissed off at me, I stuck them in a microwave oven for a couple of minutes. POPCORN HORNETS!! that was a good show. You should make a video. I am sure everyone would love it!!
What an awesome idea! Wonder if they taste good 🤣
i would have LOVED to see that,
i would have actually payed money to do so
@@GreedyOrange Me too
Sounds like trailer park life to me.
At least at the one I stayed at.
Lol.
@@leighanneboles6609 absolutely not taste like sour ass
As someone who was stung by a hornet a couple years ago, I consider this to be an act of revenge 😂
Dude you’re so casual about this and crushing them in your hands! This is so cool and crazy to watch!
I like this kind of channel where they take pests for what they are , without any PETA-esque BS
I see the other bee guys wear ball caps to keep the grill away from their faces with the hat bill.
Duct tape made the nest one big hornet hot box! Pretty sure you caught them at 4:20 hence no swarming! LOL
Hornets were surviving the onslaught until he started singing...
What does the dust do, other than I guess make them more docile? It didn't appear to kill them, they were still able to fly and crawl afterward. I am not a professional, but I normally use spray stuff and it kills them pretty quick.
Delta or Sevin dust takes 1-2 days to kill them neurologically. Basically keeps them from returning. It doesn't stun them in the time he removes the nest. TBH I'm not sure why he does it if he's going to physically destroy the nest immediately anyway. I use dust so I don't have to mess with the nest, they're just dead and gone 1-2 days later.
It looks like diatomaceous earth. It dries them out and they die
@@jdp5704 Tempo dust, from the same company that makes delta is much more effective. It has way more knockdown power. Still takes awhile for them to die, but they are incapacitated much quicker with Tempo.
Fire sound effects
I'm surprised this guy has the balls to go on a high ladder with no one holding it while mucking around with a wasp nest that could potentially hospitalize him. Such bravery and great video
I can't fathom being *within sight* of a horner's nest and not having a panic attack lmfao. I hope to one day find even half the courage this dude has.
....I'd still stay the hell away from wasp's nests though. Just out of general principle 😅
Horner nest
0:07 pls don’t smoke it’s bad for you good job on the nest tho!
Real, my grandma died because she was smoking a LOT. She was expected to live for another 30 years but she died, due to lung cancer. It is sad how smoking can take away 20 years from your life
@@RoBotOndI’m so sorry 😣
He's an adult, he can smoke if he wants to
It his own responsibility
It’s not that easy to quit. Cigarettes are very addictive and it can take years before someone finally quits for good.
“Don’t mess with hornets or you’ll regret it later”
Me:”i have a hornet’s house outside”
The suspense and anticipation when you're messing with a nest filled with literal monsters is something I never knew I needed in life.
Is it sick of me to think these videos are totally relaxing! Thanks and keep em coming!
no it's not sick because unlike bees, they're illogically aggressive and they also don't contribute much in the form of resource
They're uploaded without editing and without music, like most videos on youtube right now. That makes this video feel kinda calm and chill, even if the activity done is dangerous lol
I must be high ... thumbnail pic looks like a sheep smiling while it's sleeping 😂😂😂
