If you're allergic to bees, one sting might kill you. But most people who die get stung hundreds of times from a whole swarm, not from just one or two stings.
If you have Lyme disease and get attacked by killer bees and survive you will be cured of Lyme disease.
The whole hive gets pissed and attcks.
My brother was allergic to bee stings. I am not. He was barefoot outside, stepped on a honey bee and was in the hospital for three days. I have stepped on bees outdoors running through the sprinkler and not even realized it until I went in the house and stepped onto the hard floor. I stuck my hand into a chair that was abandoned outside and pulled it out covered with yellow jackets. I shook my hand to get them off and was left with nine red dots on my hand where I had been stung. Ten minutes later I just had a few itchy red spots and that was it. The danger is real but in small doses nothing more than an annoyance if you aren’t allergic.
It actually can happen. A good friend of mine has alot of allergies. We used to shop in Walmart together, her with the shopping cart and me following her like a stalker with a killer epipen because she could walk past something and have a bad reaction. I love my friend but I nicknamed her histamine, because she can go from 0 to gasping for breath in well under 3 seconds. And yep. I've had to stab her leg because of 1 bee sting. Loaded her but in my truck after injection and I drove like a bat out of hell with her and her husband in the back seat of my truck. Scary times.
A sting to the face neck or chest is especially deadly if you are allergic as the swelling can close of air and blood flow
4:40 “He’s trying to get over there to eat you ass!”
Oh, don’t worry, that guy found that out the hard way. That’s Timothy Treadwell and it’s a clip from the documentary grizzly man, which is all about how that dude ignored safety advice and ended up getting himself and his girlfriend mauled to death on camera by grizzly bears.
I was gonna say....isn't that Timothy? The guy who practically lived with bears? Ignored everybody's warnings etc. The sounds of him being eaten and then shortly after, his girlfriend as well. He was pulled out of a tent iirc. They later found his...uh...partial Skull with the spinal column still attached while the rest of him was buried in different spots or something. Sad. He just became too delusional. The family was able to listen to the recordings, then they were promptly destroyed iirc.
He was warned so many times.
@@Cadhlasta1 seriously! And as sad as that is, it does make sense that they would include Clips from grizzly man in a video about how dangerous bears are since his death is some of the biggest proof we’ll ever have! (RIP Timothy Treadwell; despite how it happened, nobody deserves to die like that)
😲 Sounds brutal I need to look this story up.
@@ryanswaynowIt was HIS fault for thinking he could somehow be around them. He was warned so many different times by so many people including numerous wildlife officials and experts. He chose to ignore the warnings thinking he was making bonds with WILD animals. Just leave them alone.
@@Danielle-jg4qn That doesn't mean someone deserves to be ripped apart to death. Was it inevitable? Yes. Was he warned? Yes. Was he fucking stupid? 100% yes. Did he deserve to die a horrible, prolonged, painful death? No.
There was a woman in the news who survived a cougar attack a year or two back. The cougar was starving and badly malnourished, which is both why it attacked and why she was able to survive. When she saw it, she knew not to turn and run. Unfortunately, it still charged her. When it leapt, she got her hands around its neck and strangled it while it was clawing her and trying to bite her. In its weakened state, she was able to hold it back so it couldn't bite her. After a while, it passed out.
I remember watching a massive spider fight a wasp, and the wasp won within seconds. I ran inside after that.
And this list left off coyotes, wolves, wolverines, bobcats, moose, bison, elk and scorpions that can all mess you up.
Wolverines from what I've read don't reside here
@@rhondacady7120yes they are native to much of Northern US and Canada
Coyotes aren’t dangerous pretty much at all unless they are rabid or you’re a child.
@@jiraffe9600 well I wouldn’t suggest trying to pet one…….but it’s never just one.lol
@@jimreynolds2837 Still don't think they belong on the top 10.
Where I used to work I once went out the back bay door by the loading dock. Looked over to see a cougar laying on a rock in the sun watching me. I stopped, calmly backed up, closed the roll down door, and went back to work. Told my boss the Cougar was back. Lol
I'm reminded of that song, 'The Cat Came Back' :)
I grew up on a dairy farm. I grew to learn when the cows were going to move, so when cleaning an udder, attaching or detaching a milking machine, I knew when I had to move too. Cows are generally very docile animals who don't know their own strength, but they'll attack when provoked or when someone messes with their babies.
We always knew someone who had been in farm accidents, whether it's from machinery or animals. It's a dangerous job, and very thankless.
My daughters classmate was 6, and she was walking in her yard. They didn't know the bull had gotten loose on the farm. She was hit by the bull and was in intensive care for over a week. She was so lucky to be alive. The poor baby didn't want to leave her house.
I thank you farmers!!!!
In Ireland where I live my bull escaped and killed 2 sheep
When we lived in Florida years ago we had an alligator try to climb the chain link fence around our back yard to get to our dog. More recently now that we live in North Carolina we occasionally have black bears around our house. One time my mom went outside and noticed a car door was open and what looked like bear pawprints inside it.
One animal or insect they forgot to add, fire ant! Here in the southern USA there are no joke.
Ooh, yeah, they deserve a spot on the list. Would NOT want to encounter them.
When you're cutting your lawn and don't know you just ran over one of their hills 🥵shiiiitttt, then you realize their half way up your legs .Omg the pain.
They came off the banana boats in Gulfport, Mississippi from South America. 🐜
My mom and brother would get bit and swell up for days. I get bit, and the next day, there is a small blister. I pop it, and that's it. That's one thing along with poison ivy ot sumac that doesn't bother me. Give me a kiwi, fig, or shrimp, and I'm down for the count.
Oh, my goodness! You are so right!
My brother got bit by a copperhead snake a couple of years back. He was mowing my uncles property, which had gotten overgrown after his passing. When he was mowing around the car, he saw a stick poking out from under the car. He wanted to move it so as not to run it over with the mower. When he went to pick it up, he was bit by the copperhead that was wrapped around the stick. We rushed him to the hospital. He was bit on the hand, and by the time he got to the hospital, his entire arm was swollen twice its natural size, and they worried the venom might reach his heart. He was given the antivenom and was fine after that, but if he ever gets bit again, he's screwed. You can only take it once. After that, it's ineffective.
Good to know about the venom! I didn't know that.
dont worry its not true that you can only have it once@@carissadallke1345
Wow I didn't know that about the antivenom
My aunt was bitten 6 different times. She ended up immune.
@alysiareid6659 Wow, I've heard of snake charmers inflicting themselves with the poison to become immune but not by accident lmao. Your aunt is hardcore 🤣
I once saw a gator in the Everglades while riding an airboat!! What SHOCKED me was how FAST they are on land!!! I couldn't figure out HOW those little legs can move that gator that fast!!!! It was as quick as a sprinter!! And when it hit the waters edge, one quick flip of that tail and it was as if he were shot out of a cannon!!! BOOM!!! GONE!!! You don’t stand a chance!!! 😮
Alligators and crocodiles are prehistoric eating machines. And they are mostly densely packed muscle. They can climb fences too.
@@kimberlyskokan3444they can do W h a t?
@@flayze1300 Google Cape Canaveral Kennedy Space Center Fences. Being in Florida, gators tend to just go where they please, including up fences, which would disrupt rocket launches. So they had to make their fences curved specifically to prevent alligators from climbing.
I live on an 18 acre plot in Alaska. We always carry a firearm while working on the property. We have bear, lynxes, wolves, and moose. Yes, moose can be very aggressive. Alaska also has a lot of wild dogs. They may have been someone's pet but got lost, learned to survive on their own and then bred with other wild dogs and basically created a litter of feral dogs.
moose are extremely dangerous…
That guy who had that bear behind him was Tim Treadwell. Grizzly Man
He and his girlfriend ended up getting eaten by a grizzly.
** there, i fixed it 🤨
How much of him did she eat?
@@ChrisForstner Weird she turned on him, huh? 🤣🤣😂😂
@@Tijuanabill Someone should have given her a Snickers bar.
And it was caught on camera.
Search for Grizzly Man to find the documentary
Bull sharks are common in Florida, they are know man eaters. What makes the a nightmare is...they have been found 20 miles up a freshwater river
Even further up the Mississippi by Missouri
They have been found in Iowa as well and unconfirmed reports of them in the Great Lakes.
A suspected bull shark in the Atlantic City area was the inspiration for Jaws. The incident generated so much hysteria that the government issued hefty bounties for bull-shark kills. The bounty was so lucrative that bull sharks were hunted to near-extinction and when it became difficult to find a bull shark they just disguised other shark species to get the reward.
It’s literally the “shark attack capital of the world”
@@maryjane4432 yea New Smyrna Beach in Florida is the shark bite capital of the world
Jeff hanneman from the band Slayer died because of a brown recluse bite. Their bite causes necrophagia. And if you have any weak spots it will go for that. In his particular case it was his liver because he was a heavy drinker. He died from liver problems but it all started after the brown recluse bite. He only lived for about 2 or 3 years after that.
Yeah, a friend of mine had a brown recluse bite on the back of her calf. They ended up having to cut a chunk out of her leg, because her calf was, like, rotting. It was so gross.
I remember reading about that. I was bitten by a brown recluse, it's basically a rattlesnake bite, though I've never been bitten by one of those, it was still one hell of an ordeal!
I live just a few miles away from where two brothers, 18 & 21, were looking for antlers that had been shed by the bucks. A Mountain Lion was around 100 ' away from them. They did everything they were supposed to do, make themselves look big, walk backwards, make alot of noise but the Lion attacked them..They fought like crazy but one of the brothers died. It happened one week ago. This was a terrible tragedy for the family & our community in Northern Ca. We have been seeing more of them the past couple years and we always walk our property with a firearm. They can be deadly....
They have to change the mountain lion count … 2 adult bothers were attacked the other day in CA, with 1 of them losing their life. So sorry for the family.
Yes, I live not far from where this happened. There's a good sized mountain lion population in El Dorado County. You can hear them making their mating calls at night, and it's kind of frightening. Some years ago, my wife ran face-to-face with one while walking to the bus stop early in the morning. It was right above her on the crest of a hill. It could have easily pounced her. That wasn't the only time she saw a mountain lion, it was just the closest that she had ever been to one. Most often, if a mountain lion doesn't want to be seen, you won't see it. My condolences to the young man who survived and his family.
I live in the Yosemite area, and I was panning gold at Bagby when I saw a mountain lion dragging a deer about 25 feet from me in the Merced river. That was the last time I ever went out panning! Too close of a call for this old lady!
Love Grandma Debbie
Makes me so mad they killed it!
@@scottfilson5935 I used to live just north of Auburn, California. Several times there were mountain lion sightings in the neighborhood. A few times I heard them screaming at night... Quite and unusual, loud and chilling sound. One of my neighbors found a dead deer stashed up high in a tree in the neighborhood, put there by a mountain lion.
@edschultheis9537 I'm in Modesto, we've had mountain lions come all the way down here too.
They are including Moose in the Deer category. Moose can be over 1,000 pounds. and stand up to 6+ feet tall.
In the 25 years we've lived in northern Pennsylvania, we've hit a deer with almost every car we've owned. Those suckers jump right in front of you. And if you miss the first one, you know there are a couple more just waiting to jump out.
Moose are the largest members of the deer family
I hit a 200 lb buck with my 99 Tahoe last fall. We got an 8 point European mount, quite a bit of deer jerky and new headlights, and a grill out of that bucks need for a girlfriend. The best part was listening to my husband jerk the hood and fender back out straight with a tractor.
Had a deer run into our car in DC. They were a lot smaller than the mule deer that ran into our car in Utah and left a lot more damage. The mule deer get bigger than the whitetail.
Southern Wisconsinite here and we live in the country. On the way to work at night I hit deer 4 times in 15 yrs. Jumped out of corn fields and from woods. Son in law on the next road hit deer over the yrs too. Took out one truck and one leaped up and got stuck flailing around in the passenger side of a van. Thank God he was alone because those sharp hooves are dangerous
I've twice found copperheads coiled up under a trash can lid that I left on the pavement, many times found black widows under the lid of my water meter, and many times been stung by wasps that had built nests in house/yard lights, under a trailer coupler, or in an outdoor switch or receptable box. By now though I'm pretty careful about sticking my hands into places I can't see.
We have to be really careful about paper wasps around here. When we moved into our house, my hubby found a nest the size of a basketball in the rafters of the shed. Fortunately, he knew just how to handle the situation.
My son has a bully pit and she's the most lovable thing. The only time I've seen her do anything violent was when someone else's pit bull attacked her and she fought back. She has let other dogs attack her before also and not do anything to defend herself. She anticipates my son's moods and she reacts to let him know to be calm. She hides from violence of any kind. Instead of getting in the middle of it she'll find a corner to hide in. She's precious.
My dad is own a pit bull he is scared of everything and my cousin pit would grab your handsome and walk you
Yea this report is so heavily skewed against bully breeds its so gross. There are so many other statistics showing that other dogs have vastly higher bite rate incidents than bully breeds and yet here we are with this kind of stuff not reporting the entire context behind the statistics. Essentially on the rare occasions where a bully does attack it is oft very dangerous because of how strong they are and NOT because they are inherently a dangerous breed. Like fuck chihuahua's have a higher bite rate statistic than bully breeds but because they don't do much damage they aren't seen as a danger.
I have two pitties and they're such sweethearts.
Bears and alligators are legit reasons to be fearful, but my main fear when hiking is cougars/mountain lions (big cats in general). I had a cougar sneak into our backyard one night when i was a kid and i was playing around our bonfire. I ran around the side of the house and came face to face with one. My dad heard me yell and he came and chased it off, but i was scarred for life.
I’ve been up close and personal with alligators. The fear around them is overhyped.
@@nicodeathstroke1378 i firmly believe the situation around alligators makes the difference. Ive seen a golf course in florida that had a “pet” alligator that lived in their pond on a fairway next to the green and it wasnt at all aggressive. Then again, ive seen hungry alligators that have chased people at a dragstrip near jupiter florida.
Ambush hunters will always be the scariest to me. Cougars are the top of the list for me too
Speaking of Cougars, two brothers were just attacked in California. 20 yr old died and 18 yr old was mauled but survived.
Every other comment says this. I think he gets it lol
My mom got bit by a brown recluse spider. It was sooo tiny climbing up the wall...she just hit it with the backside of her bare hand. Within minutes her arm started streaking red and swelling. She said it was very painful. She made it to the hospital in time to avoid long term damage.
A few years ago tourist parents let as child splash around in a swampy part of Disney World. They put down the gator and got back what was left of the child. Here in Florida also brown widow spiders can stop your heart while brown recluse spiders can rot one's limbs off without expedited treatment.
In 1969 my dad was stung to death by yellow jackets. It caused him to have a massive heart attack
My brothers wife was killed by a deer that got hit and smashed through the windshield, crushing her chest. 😢
Wow. I am so sorry for the losses that you and your family have endured.
So sorry about your father....and I know what he went through....I was stung over 200x by yellow jackets....they said bc I was a strong teenager reason I survived but now I'm allergic to 🐝 badly....again my condolences 🙏
Deer collisions are actually rather fatal, compared to lots of wildlife encounters, as you can tell from them taking the #1 spot on the list. Sorry for your loss, it still sucks either way.
I’m so sorry to hear that
The thing about both black and grizzly bears is that they are omnivores and mostly eat plants and insects and they aren't a threat to people unless you get to close to a mother with her cubs. Polar bears are another matter. They will actively hunt people.
A grizzly will eat your ass for being to close. Seen one rush a guy just becuase he saw him and decided to run after him. (It was a male so no cubs involved) even a black bear gets guys sometimes
Fun fact, polar bears and grizzlies can breed to make a hybrid. It's happened a few times, but it's a very rare thing!
@@rifino3971 I have seen some of those bears on wildlife shows. Wild!
Where most bears will run away if they see you across a road, a polar bear will cross that road just to kick your azz!!
While you're definitely more likely to get attacked if you stumble on a mother bear with cubs, it's complete myth that bears are generally not a threat to people otherwise. Bears are killing machines and they are not generally going to flee from or shy away from people. There are too many body bags to count filled with people that went out into bear country thinking just screaming "hey bear hey bear" was going to scare off a bear and stop them from attacking.
I’ve been bitten by a brown recluse and it put me out of work for 3 days. I had convulsions, seizures, cold, sweats, and all around a flu like feeling. Luckily, I did not experience any necrosis or tissue loss
There is a reason there are several hunting seasons for deer. They can overpopulate quickly because humans hunted their preditors like wolves and Coyotes to far. While wolves were reintroduced into Yellowstone completely brought the balance back to the park, Coyotes are a bit slower coming back to pack sizes in areas. We have packs here in Illinois but nowhere near the amount as to keep deer under control. Its very common to see deer along roads at night in country areas.
Just want to point out a man was recently killed in Ca. by a cougar.
And his brother was mauled but survived.
I just heard about that.
This weekend
Guess developers need to stop tearing down all the animals homes
@@rhondacady7120makes me so mad they killed it
I see sharks all the time. In FL and NC where I currently live. Normal. Dolphins and Gators too. Unfortunately, the guy (Timothy Treadwell) that was so calm around the bears actually got eaten by a bear (along with his girlfriend). Such a sad story. 😔 "White say goodnight" - unfortunately, the American black bear (Ursus americanus) can come in all three of these colours, black, brown, white, plus cinnamon colour; so that rhyme is not 100% reliable.
What? Black bears aren't white? We have grizzlies up in the north west up by Washington and polar Bears in Alaska and black bears are mostly in the eastern parts of the US
Gators freak me out!😊
It's not uncommon to see small sharks when wading off the Atlantic shore. I guess they are called Atlantic Spiny Dogfish. They're kinda cute and too small to threaten humans.
@@sarahkramer8954 I think they mean you can't see them while you're in the water New Smyrna Beach Florida is the shark bite capital of the world and they would show helicopter videos of sharks swimming around people at the beach and then not noticing
@@noelramirez1551 - I guess I interpreted his general question a bit ambiguously. You are absolutely correct that the Great Whites are hidden until it's almost too late. Having said that, it's worth pointing out that most sharks are harmless to humans and should not be feared. I've seen bobcats in the wild and they are super cute, but very happy I've never seen a cougar.
My father in law got bit once by a brown recluse spider on his big toe.
Under perpetual medical treatment his to continued to have a hole rot in his to over and over again all the way to the bone for about 5 years straight. This resulted in so many battles with infections his heart weakened and eventually gave out.
Generally you don't have to worry about these animals, but when you do, you don't expect it
I grew up on the Texas coast, surfing in water as deep as ten feet. At time's people were catching ten-foot hammerhead sharks off a pier beside us. Closer in, you often just pushed four and five foot sand sharks away. They all gad plenty to eat and presented little danger. Now, the man-o-war was a different story.
I backpacked and camped in mountain lion country in New Mexico for many years. I would have loved to have seen one of these secretive animals in the wild, but they are too shy. We did often see their track superimposed inside our boot tracks on the trail where they had followed behind us on the trail. I sat up nights above one of the few springs in the area hoping to see them using it, but they never did. But most everywhere is lion country. Here in central Texas, we had one worked a large circuit that passed through here. He settled in once across the road from me, long enough to eat half a dozen goats. And I have heard them scream at night when they winded a dog. They are normally only a hazard to small children who are allowed to run about in remote areas acting like their prey.
In the south, any body of water has a fair chance of having a resident alligator.
Rattlesnakes and copperheads are everywhere. Neither is aggressive. I encounter one of two rattlesnakes around my house each year. I catch them and release they far from people. 7,000 snake bites is nothing, considering the vast number of snakes. But I do have my dogs trained to recognize and avoid the odor of the three species of venomous snakes. Coral snakes find it difficult to bite a human. They have no fangs and have to just gnaw, and they are so small that the only bites I've seem were people who picked them up.
Here in Texas, if you engage to ride or otherwise interact with horses and they hurt you, you have no legal recourse. You're supposed to know they can be a hazard.
I was almost killed by a ground wasp when i was 9 years old when it stung me right between the eyes. In less than 2 minutes my eyes were swollen shut, and my throat was closing. A park ranger saves me with an shot
I found out I have an allergy to spider venom. I got bit by a common house spider and was down and out less than a minute later. Only reason I got saved was because the bite actually occurred in an ambulance building.
I had a coworker who got bit on his foot by a copperhead. He had to drive himself to the ER. Even after 1 week his foot was still swollen as big as a football!!!
My buddy got bit by a timber rattlesnake and his entire body swole 2x normal 😅 matter of fact of he’d gotten to the hospital 15 minutes later he’d have been too swollen to get the breathing tube down his throat and he’d have died. 25 bottles of anti-venom later and about a $300,000 hospital bill…. He was good as new
My adult son was bitten by (we assume) a copperhead. It only got one fang in his ankle. The doctor said it probably didn't inject much venom. His foot was swollen for about a week. He said it was one of the most painful things he had experienced. It was dark and close to the house, so probably a copperhead, but he has seen rattlesnakes and cottonmouths on his property. No antivenin was needed, but they have to monitor the blood clotting ability.
Yes sharks are very normal here in FL. Spring and early summer are the best time to see them as it is mateing season here and there are bull sharks galore in the intercostal waters. So you have to becareful not to get eaten by aggressive Bulls. Number 8 the good old Swamp Puppy.
when i lived in cali for a bit i was unlucky enough to have seen the mother of all sharks "a great white"
if i wasn't behind a cage im pretty sure the water would have turned brown.
because let me tell you seeing them on tv doesn't do their size and ferocity any justice.
they are some big big fish.
I live in the backwoods of the American south. Mountain lions (cougars) cry sounds like a baby crying. So imagine walking home in the woods and you hear a baby crying in the distance and knowing you have no neighbors. Talk about blood chilling.
Edit: Also, here recently, a little boy was killed by an english bulldog, and the boys dad was hospitalized trying to get it off his son.
I grew up in S.E. Alabama and we could hear a panther at night on our farm and it sounded like a woman screaming.
Creepy but true ⤴️
@@dustybrandAbsolutely terrifying to hear coming from the woods.
Polar bears actively hunt humans. They are strict carnivores.
They just really don't like us and I can't really blame them
No they have been targeting ppl because they are losing their animal they hunt because of global warming making it harder for them to hunt. Animals always have a reason why they do something.
@@user-zj6ho7hv1lits not even they don't like us they just don't have anything other than meet there bro and it's so damn cold there that no plant grows there so they don't get a choice they got to eat meat. Kind of like saltwater crocodiles or nile crocs they actively hunt humans to... Go to a village in Africa and see how many people are missing limbs.
Nahh I’m pretty sure they drink Coca Cola…
They're hungrey
I was swimming at Satellite Beach, Florida, in 1961. I had a float/innertube, and a shark bumped the tube. I tried to walk on water to get back to shore. I wasn't hurt in any way, but I was terrified. I still swim in the ocean, but I'm on the lookout for sharks.😊
Bees are allergy related. My sister had been stung as a kid and was fine but she got stung a year ago by ground bees and ended up in anaphylactic shock and was rushed to the hospital. Thankfully she was ok after treatment but has to carry around an EPI Pen at all times in warmer weather.
Lived next door to national forest in California. Cougar, bobcat, black bear, rattle snakes, etc. were our neighbors too. Awareness & respect are key.
I live next to a national forest/state park in Maryland at the base of two mountains. We get all of those as well! Wild animals are attracted to the area near my house bc there is a preserve/zoo on my road. Momma black bear and her cubs come and sit in my apple trees and eat apples at dusk in the fall. I can’t let my pups outside at night alone.
@@maryjane4432 The daytime is for us. From sundown to sunrise, it's all theirs.
Yes I saw a tiger shark in Florida about 4 feet offshore. I was standing on a balcony really high up. I saw a shark swimming under a guy on a raft. He had no idea that shark was anywhere close to him. People on the beach started walking towards the water, screaming get out of the water get out of the water, thankfully nothing happened but it was quite terrifying.
We have a ranch in Oklahoma with about 200 head of cattle. It can be very dangerous working them, especially moving them from field to field. We still use horses, so when you have a group of 50-100 cows running all grouped up you really dont want to fall off your horse. Also from working on the ranch, I have been bit a couple times by snakes. Never a rattlesnake though.
Yes, Ive seen sharks in real life. While snorkeling in the keys, there were nurse sharks around. In Belize we went out to an area w/lots of nurse sharks and were able to touch them. I live in Florida and while at the beach, I saw a shark swim past some swimmers.
Here in central Texas we have coral snakes, copperheads and the huge diamond back rattlesnake...also in and around the lakes we also have
water moccasins or sometimes called cotton mouths. i have on my wall a 6.5' diamondback rattlesnake skin that I caught and tanned myself.
I had a cat named Abercrombie in my younger years in TX. I just called him Abs. One day I looked out the window and saw him throwing something in the air and batting it while it came down. From the distance I thought he was playing with a stick but I was curious so I went out to see. It was a coral snake. Red and yellow kill a fellow. That cat was lucky to live to see another day had I not just happened to look out my window.
Here in Texas, i've been swimming a couple times with friends in lakes and rivers and it never fails. Water moccasins will just pop outta the water right by us it's a huge black snake. We yelled and swam fast to get away from it. It didn't give chase.
In order to die from "a" bee or wasp sting, you'd have to be allergic. But some of these species will swarm. I recently met a young lady who had been attacked by a swarm of hornets. She's lucky to be alive and will never be the same. She suffered brain damage.
yes bro, deer are a different breed, my dad once told me this: "If theres a deer in the middle of the road and ditch on the side of the road just hit the deer but if theres a moose in middle of the road, swerve into the ditch or try to stop" the reason for this is that deer weigh only like 150 pounds (68 kgs) and hitting it wouldnt hurt you if you hit it but a moose weighs like 1300 pounds (590 kgs) and hitting it would most likely end up not good for you
As for snakes, I was picking squash out of my garden and I felt something hitting my foot. I looked down and I realized I'd stepped on a copperhead snake. It didn't try to bite me, it just wanted me to get off. Once I did, I slithered off. It turned around for a minute to make sure I wasn't pursuing him and it went off into the woods. I was shocked. It scared me so much that I never went into the garden again! Lol
I caught a tiny baby sand shark in NY a few years ago. Here in Florida, gators are everywhere. I still haven't see one in public except on the news. But an 85 year old woman died a year ago from an attack about 6 miles from my home. People see gators on golf courses all the time in Florida. Bees are very dangerous if you are allergic. My sister is; she cannot go near them.
In a hurry to complete work one afternoon I stepped out of my car snapping photos of an eroding river, I paused, took a few more photos and became aware of a thumping on my boot. Looking down I screamed, jumped back and watched as a snake rolled over and got the heck out of there.
Scared the heck out of me!
It wasn't until I made it back to the office that I noticed the venom running down my boot and several holes in boot.
Dang copperheads.
While scuba diving off of South Padre Island Texas we have encountered several species of sharks. The most intimidating encounter was when an 8 foot and slightly smaller tiger shark came to investigate us. Once their curiosity was satisfied they went about their business.
When I was 14 I was volunteering in the ER at a hospital we had a car accident come in. The deer went through the car windshield and decapitated the man driving. They brought him into the ER because the man's son was in the car and they didn't want to declare him dead on the scene in front of the 8 year old boy. Be mindful when driving in wooded areas and on highways
Old Joke: Two guys come across a bear and one of the guys puts on his running shoes. The other guys says you can't out run a bear. The first guys says I don't need to out run the bear, I just need to out run you.
I've heard that joke before, but it was about two guys swimming in a pond who encounter an alligator.
Always swim with a buddy, then all u have to do it swim faster than them.
"Why's he so calm?" Oh, my. That's Timothy Treadwell. He was a bit of a self-made Bear Whisperer - or not - because he ended up being eaten by bears and there is audio recording of the moment it happened.
He wasn't eaten by bears. He was becoming one with them on the spiritual level.
One could even say his spirit was freed by the bear in a Grizzly manner.
Now, his spirit is said to occasionally be seen stealing Picinic Baskets in Yellowstone Park

Hello from Oregon, USA. I lived on a farm where bears, cougars, elk, and coyotes often stroll onto properties in the area. One time when walking over to friends place, the dog and I walked past a gorgeous momma cougar who was keeping an eye on her 2 babies playing on the other side of the path. So close!!!
I grew up in the backwoods of Louisiana and the snakes and gators they showed are no joke. They also should’ve the water mocasan, or called the cotton mouth. It’s a type of water snake and very territorial, and some will chase you down for a good distance. One thing that helps out though; if you start getting a whiff of something that smells like rotten eggs, that’s most likely a cotton mouth, so watch your step. Also one time me and my dad years ago back in November got attacked by a nest of yellow jackets and my shirt was covered in them. And I’ll say this; if it was during the spring or summer months, we would have needed to go to the hospital. But with been during the fall, we was ok.
I came across a cougar once in 1984; I was 22. My friend and I were hiking and we sat down near it. I could hear it breathing and panting. I prayed, and I stood up, asking my friend to come with me and not to make any sudden or stupid noises. She usually screams when she's scared so I was very serious about not doing that. We walked rather quickly, but not too fast and we were able to get away (or maybe the animal was simply not interested). It was enough to keep me out of the thick woods again. I will not go too deeply into them now.
The fact that there were 2 of you made it very wary of attacking you. If it was just one of you then things might have been different.
This is what happened to the guy who was so casual around the bear. Chilling last moments of couple eaten alive by grizzly bear after decapitated head found. The chilling final moments of a couple who were eaten alive by a grizzly bear have emerged. Timothy Treadwell, who spent 13 summers camping with wild bears in Alaska, was mauled to death along with his girlfriend Amie Huguenard
In Florida on the Atlantic Coast from New Smyrna Beach to the Sebastian Inlet is the worst stretch of water for shark attacks. I lived right in the middle in Cape Canaveral. I've seen quite a few sharks while swimming or surfing. Saw a crap ton of gators as well (right up close to them)
I've seen a cottonmouth and lots copperhead snakes. They leave you alone, if you leave them alone. I just took an airboat swamp tour in New Orleans. We saw an 11 foot alligator and got to pet a very young one. I've seen a maybe 3 foot reef shark in Florida. My friend's dad has been bitten twice by brown recluse spiders.
Edit: forgot to mention my Navy husband fell overboard in Hawaii into a hammerhead shark breeding ground. They pulled him out quickly.
Two brothers were attacked by a Cougar in Californina yesterday. One died, and the other was messed up pretty bad.
"If every house has a bear" 🤣😂🤣😂 Hilarious, but on point.
Kinda like saying most auto accidents happen within ??? miles of their house. YAH because how often do you drive to or from your house? I can't tell you how many times I've almost driven out of my driveway before turning on my lights! And a seat belt? I have a hard time backing out of the driveway with it on, so I do that as soon as I shift into drive!
I’d like a bear… 😜
@@The_Crucible714some people raise black bears…no thanks
@@NeomiCheon
I like white, so I can say “goodnight!” 🤣
@@The_Crucible714 all I can say is..good luck. You will be remembered 🫸🫷
A lady I used to housesit for lived in the mountains and had a neighbor that planted catnip which spread up onto her property, turns out mountain lions really like catnip…so we’d regularly see mountain lions high out their minds suntanning on a Boulder 10 ft away from her back door. They didn’t bug us as long as we let them be, but it was always fun to scare people with.
As a kid, I was boogie boarding a ways down from the pier at Pismo Beach and had a great white swim past me. I saw the big grey dorsal fin break the surface, cutting between me and the next wave heading my way. I kept praying I would see the fin bob up and down (dolphin), but that thing cut like a knife, straight and steady. It went past me, didn't turn, circle, nothing like that. It just continued down the coast line, but I caught the next wave and rode it to shore. No more surf for me that day!
I was on a charter fishing boat about 6 years ago, a hammerhead shark jumped half way out of the water about 10 feet away from me.
I live in a part of Texas where deer are everywhere...in my yard included. I've hit deer twice and saw 3 dead on the highway today. We have more wild axis deer now---much bigger than the white tail deer. They get hit a lot more often and do more damage to vehicles and drivers.
I have seen several sharks when I went to visit Florida. I watched a shark frenzy as they went for food. It’s insane!
Oh yeah, the diamond back rattler is EVERYWHERE in the South. I found a baby one in my dining room one day, my dog was playing with it. Freaked me out and we trapped it under a bowl. LOL
Living in the Yosemite area, I’ve met up with lots of dangerous critters, been bit by black widows twice, escaped rattlesnakes barely, was stocked by a mountain lion, but for some reason I’ve never met up with any bears.. go figure…
Love Grandma Debbie
I was in the Okefenokee Swamp in Florida and enjoying a calm day when an alligator walked out of the water. We politely walked backward toward the car and got out alive. He really didn't seem all that interested in us but we didn't want to chance anything lol
Florida here, there are definitely sharks. You usually see them if you’re out fishing offshore, or if they’re chasing a school of smaller fish along the beach. A lot of it is surfers. There are videos out there that show how from underwater the shape looks just like a seal or other prey. Combine that with paddling, which looks like an injured animal thrashing
My son's mother was almost killed by a deer in a car crash a few years ago. She was in critical condition for several days before stabilizing. She needed facial reconstruction surgery and still had limited use of her left arm.
As far as stinging insects go, there are people that will have to be hospitalized or die from bee/wasp/hornet stings. Those people are allergic to the venom. My father being 1.
There has just been a cougar attack in Northern California yesterday March 23rd 2024. One man is dead and his brother was severely wounded and is in hospital.
As a gardener, I've been stung by honeybees and wasps by accidentally stepping on them in my bare feet. But... I accidentally disturbed a Bumblebees nest while digging to plant something and that sucker CHASED me! It stung me twice on my back and chased me all the way to the back door and landed on the screen door just as I shut it! Needless to say, that was the end of my gardening day! Every sting hurts like hell, but since I'm not allergic to any type of bee sting, I didn't need to worry about dying.
Yesterday's headline in my local newspaper was about 21-year-old who was killed by a cougar while hiking with his younger brother. I've only seen one once before. I was driving home late at night and it was running in front of the car. The cat was as large as an adult deer.
Bees? Yes. If you're allergic, you could die. If you get enough bees attacking you, such as if you disturb the hive, you could die. Or maybe your lucky and you're allergic AND piss off the whole hive, then you're the boy from the movie "My Girl."
8:30 Snake story -> my wife and I live in California and we were at our storage unit early at 6 AM, no staff on site for another 4 hours. We opened the roll top door and my wife and I were playfully messing around with each other and she started backing away from me when within a split second I noticed she was about to step on a coiled baby rattlesnake. Within that millisecond I reacted without thinking and shoved/pulled her away from it, the look on her face was utter betrayal as I’ve never ever laid a hand on her in that way before (and still never would) but I just pointed and held on to her so she wouldn’t move towards it again and when she saw the snake she of course screamed and freaked out. We tried everything to save it, all our local wildlife emergency rescue, everyone was closed sadly and our towns local snake wrangler wasn’t answering so the closest emergency personal we could get was the fire department and they had to put it down sadly. I jokingly wanted to keep it but my wife said no, even though she grew up on a farm and is a cowgirl. Baby diamond back rattlesnakes are very deadly, and my wife has a severe medical condition, where if she would have been bitten she wouldn’t have survived the emergency ride to the hospital. Thankfully she did not get bit.
One of my daughters had a close encounter with a cougar. She was exploring the tree line by where she was hanging out with her sister and my father. Luckily the cougar was on the other side of a chain link fence but it perked up when it saw her and began actively stalking her. She was able to get out of there without being attacked. Very lucky girl.
I grew up in Florida and my nearest beach was New Smyrna Beach, which is the shark bite capital of the world (at least at the time), and while I've been there hundreds of times I've only had 3 shark experiences. I was bumped by a bull shark and a hammerhead there but never bitten and bumped by another shark that I could barely see at a beach nearby. However plenty of my friends have never encountered a shark so I guess I 've just had bad luck. Although shark bites happen every once in a while, the deaths are really rare. After all we are swimming in their home, but it's not as scary or common as it sounds.
The world rid itself of my ex husband thanks to a rattlesnake. Poor snake; he killed it and walked into the emergency room with it. We had a Mako shark try to get into the boat with us. One person dove for the throttle and another for the .45.
Poor snake… RIP.
My family and I find Mountain Lion paw tracks on our property once a month. We have 15 acres (roughly 7 hectares). We have bobcats and bear, too. When we are on the fringe parts of our property we carry our guns with us.
(EDIT: We have rattlesnakes, too. The reason we have mountain lions is we have three family units of deer on our property. They eat our apples)
Yes , exactly right. There are other wild animals roaming around America that if corner can mess you up. Thanks for sharing.
I live on the Coast and yep, have seen sharks. We often see black tips that surf in the wave breaks. Yeah...that close. We have alligators, bears, coyotes, wolves, cats, boars, poisonous snakes and wild turkeys etc., etc. It's like country meets beach.
I knew someone that was bitten by a rattlesnake. He had to air-lifted to the hospital. He almost died.
I don't mess around with snakes.
Spent the first 20+ years of my life on Hutchinson Island Florida and have lost track of the hundreds of hours diving have seen many many sharks of all species and have never been bothered or scared but Barracuda have put me back in the boat more times than I can count
There have been several cases of hunters shooting what they think are brown (grizzly) bears in the north, only to find out they are hybrids. Polar bears and brown bears are breeding.
As an amateur beekeeper, we've learned that your first sting is typically a "freebie."
Your second sting could be fatal. What happens is that the first sting gives your body a sample of the venom, and it could develop an allergy from it. Making it so that your firat sting hurts, but your second could kill. We keepultiple epipens at our house, just i case a reaction develops from us or a guest at our house, as we have an active, farmed, hive here.
Bees can only sting you 1 time, then they die.
Wasps and Hornets can sting as much as they want.
And some will chase you to do so. Had a friend end up in the hospital after he accidentally disturbed a nest while getting ready to plant crops. He got stung sooooo many times.
My son climbed into a tree that had a hornets nest inside it when he was 4 years old. When I tore off his shirt you could see them reatedly stinging the same spot even when the shirt was on the ground. He got stung so many times. I stopped counting at 20 lumps while I talked to the hospital staff. Luckily, he wasn't killed. Now though, he has developed an allergy to wasps and hornet stings (the venom is different than bees). So it would be a different story.
Bees often travel in swarms. Each one only has to sting once.
@@Eniral441i feel like i've heard of wasp and hornet allergies developing from stings before
@dead-claudia It goes for a number of things like that. When I was two, I woke up one morning looking like I had an extreme case of measles or chicken box. It was spider bites. Now I'm allergic to them. And the always seems to get worse with age. I've discovered that I'm now allergic to 🕸
I live in Connecticut and had a large shark swim pass me in Long Island Sound. It was following a school of fish. I don't know what type it was. In my neighborhood we have black bears, rattlesnakes, bobcats and coyotes. The coyotes are the most nerve-wracking because they like to pack up and go after your pet dogs or cats. Late at night I can hear them yipping.
Oh yeah we have plenty of deer and one damaged my car pretty bad one morning when it jumped out of the woods in front of me, but I did not get hurt.
I grew up owning pomeranians and have two right now. They both have sweet personalities and listen well to me.
Just had a double cougar attack north of Sacramento, CA. One man dead, another seriously injured. First in two decades - in California.
8:30 Texan here, thankfully never bitten, but we have been chased, multiple times.
One was when I was younger and riding my bike near a lake, a water moccasin (cottonmouth is another name for them) was terrorizing some poor family that was hiding on top of their picnic table. Riding by, it got distracted by me and chased me for quite a distance.
Another was a copperhead at my in-laws - hubby managed to get a good swing in with a shovel that dazed it long enough for my father-in-law to shoot it with his pistol.
And that's just a couple of the stories. xD
There was a guy and his brother attacked by a cougar yesterday in north California . Killed the brother and injured the other brother
I've seen alligators, poisonous snakes like cotton-mouths and copperheads, spiders as big as your hand, deer all the time in my backyard and subdivision, and sharks at Galveston Beach. I saw them swimming in the waves like they were surfing bro! I've seen people catch sharks. They're actually delicious. I've cooked some shark filets in the past. Good video as always mate! Cheers 🍻!!!
While photographing a surfing festival for charity, we had nurse sharks swimming in the swimming and surfing areas all the time.
I used to fish off the coast near San Diego and I've seen Mako, Great Whites, and one Hammerhead.
I was very familiar with Black widows. What we quickly taught to young kids difference between "Daddy long legs" a spider that eats bad bugs and any other spiders. Leave a Daddy Long Legs alone, and tell your parents of any other Spiders. A child not bothering a spider but reporting it was rewarded with candy. Essential since 75% we're Black widows or Wolf spiders
My front yard is covered with wolf spiders at night in the summertime. I used to go out in flip flops at 5 am to water the grass until I saw them hopping along by the hundreds in the early morning sunlight. We have some giant Leyland Cypresses full of bats. I was told that the bats eat wolf spiders like popcorn, so that explains a lot.
🌸 I haven't been in the ocean since i seen Jaws as a child. I grew up in Huntington Beach California and hung out with surfer's most my life
7:47 that snake has such a derpy face
I lived in FL as a kid...sharks & gators are VERY common. Close to the everglades, we would see gators sunbathing on the sides of roads. And something not mentioned in this video, that I was always taught to be extremely cautious of, were cottonmouth snakes (aka water moccasins). I believe these are normally found in the southeastern US but are closely related to the copperhead (both are pit vipers) & cottonmouth venom is arguably more potent than that of copperheads. In my experience, cottonmouths are MUCH more aggressive than copperheads as well.
