Yeah, I know.  I learned a long time ago.  "Don't play with your food!"  So when I rode horses a lot.  The thought of riding a bull never entered my mind.  :grin:

At least it wasn't a Blue Ring octopussy.  They're deadly.

There was a guy who died after eating a slug. Another died from eating centipedes.

Don't do that.

We had "Tarzan" ropes tied to trees in our fields.  When the cows passed under we thought it would be a good idea to swing down on their backs and hold on tight to the rope to see what happens.  Fun time!  Our Mom never figured out how the inseam of our jeans got so dirty.  :) 

We never realized that we are exercising and building muscle.  I never understood why people went to the gym until I got a desk job in my 30s.

A guy recently did this.  Not sure whether it was in NZ or Oz.  He had it on his arm playing with it.  Put it back and freaked when he found out later that if it had bitten him he was a dead man.
