Bees/Wasps can't sting you if you hold your breath?

It's true, it's in their contract.

Proven fact. If you close your eyes when playing hide and seek, you become completely invisible too.

Try it and get back to us. But, you have to video it for proof.

How would they know you are holding it....Do they buzz in front of your face to see if your cheeks are full?

What if you just puffed them out but continued to breathe? Would this piss them off?

I just got lit up by wasps about a week ago cleaning out duck blinds. I can't remember if I was holding my breath though.....

I'm not sure about that but I do know for a fact that if your hand is bigger than your face you have cancer.

CO2 makes bees mad. So if you don't breathe on them, better chance of not getting stung.

Another random fact:

You can hold your friends, and you can hold your breath. But you cant hold your friends breath. Thats called murder.

I don't have anything to add to this thread other than frick wasps. They are the most angry, hateful, evil creatures in existence.

The only thing that has worked for me is to not move or move slowly. They pretty much just leave you alone as long as you don't freak out
