Default Chinese PLA vs Wasp nest

Hmmm so a village is harassed by some very aggressive wasps that have allegedly killed one person.

What to do? Use a flamethrower of course! I am most impressed with the second guy who steadies the flame gun on his shoulder!

Linkie!

Sheesh, Bit of an overkill, but it works. "Good Training" I suppose. Musta impressed the hell out of the villagers...Noticed the PLA is STILL using the LPO-50 or some Chinese knockoff.

They've never heard of Raid!? There are industrial-strength versions of Raid!, none that require the fire department to be standing by...

Insane overkill. But quite amusing

Almost afraid to see what they use to take out fire ants...a 5-minute stonk with the battalion mortar platoon?

Default dunno about overkill

thanks for a most interesting clip.

a wasp nest of killer bees the size of a small car.. a flamethrower seems appropriate imho.

but on to another element - did you guys see the dress/garrison uniforms? Did they remind you of someone elses?

I HIGHLY doubt it was killer bees in China, but it was, go bees!!! But wasps or hornets.. they just keep on stinging. The LAST thing a bee does in HER life is sting.

You know, one of these days...man-sized hornets are going to show up with flamethrowers on their backs and start setting our houses on fire...


Hey, is that a new alternate T2K scenario?
