This Week's Edition Of "NOPE!"

[plastikbulletz]

Saw a kid get popped by one on the ball field years ago. He was the coaches kid and would shag balls and then get a little BP in. He was at bat and all of the sudden fell to the ground screaming, crying and writhing in pain. I have never heard someone scream so much. His arm had a bump on it the size of a baseball and he had to be carried off the field and taken to the hospital. Crazy stuff for sure.

“There are some vivid descriptions of people getting stung by these things,” says invertebrate biologist Ben Hutchins of Texas Parks and Wildlife, “and their recommendation—and this was actually in a peer-reviewed journal—was to just lie down and start screaming, because few if any people could maintain verbal and physical coordination after getting stung by one of these things. You’re likely to just run off and hurt yourself. So just lie down and start yelling.”
