When I was 11 or 12 a neighbor kid brought over his new .410 shotgun he got for his birthday.
He decided to shoot at a big paper wasp nest high up in a weeping willow tree by the pond.
A million to one shot - the dumbass shot the branch - cutting it off clean - and the nest tumbled to the ground and broke open.
The wasps were pissed and went after the first thing they found - us.
The genius dropped his new shotgun and we both ran for and dived fully clothed into the pond.
We were in there for quite a while.
