Those hornets are a bit on the large side. Thankfully, none live where I do.

I've heard about these things, but never seen pictures. Those things ar flipping SCARY. I was afraid of bees before this. O.o;
Not to make anyone paranoid, but I heard a rumor that they may be spreading.

How would these things fair agenst a swarm of Africanized (killer) Bees?

I am absolutely, positively terrified of all things that sting. (Traumatization; when I was real little I accidently hit a wasps nest and they all came out and stung me). If I ever saw one of these things I might faint.

We could set up an Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny. Rent a stadium, sell tickets, place bets, that sort of thing. :P
