as a lumberjack 100 feet up a large tree, suddenly come upon a hive of bees
-OR-
come across an angry nesting eagle?
okay, the book says that the average bee hive has 120,000 bees. it doesn't say you stick your hand in it or anything though. i mean, there may be a ton but are they pissed? the eagle is angry. still, my gut says go with the eagle. seems like there is less chance of falling which would be my real concern.
