Jesus, I hope I don't meet on of those wasps when I'm in Japan next, I think I'd die upon sight of one.

I watched a program about the giant hornets and they were actually quite peacful creatures until you get near their nest.
Honey bees have developed a strategy of dealing with hornets by lots of them attaching to the hornet and then vibrating their abdomens until the body heat of the hornet rises to a level they can not cope with then they die, apparently the honey bees have a body heat tolerance 1 degree above that of the hornets, evolution working its magic :)

God im dull :p

"They then descend upon the beehive like an unholy plague of hell-born death engines and proceed to make this world a scary goddamned place. This is maybe 30 wasps against 30,000 bees and the 30,000 bees do not stand a chance"

love the quote...
