I filmed this yesterday. Guess I am crazy, but I realized that hornets do not attack you while you ale still and quiet. Enjoy the video.

You're lucky they weren't Bald Faced Hornets like we have here in the states. A nest that size can kill a full grown man! :shock:

Here's a tip: Aim for the nerve stem, and put it down for good.

One hornet can kill you if you are allergic to the venom. Also, I think that one hornet can sting you multiple times. There were probably 50 to 70 hornets in this nest.
