Okay, so maybe murder hornets aren’t THAT dangerous … or maybe it’s praying mantises we should truly be worried about. Either way — nature is damn scary!!!
Here’s video of an apparent Asian giant hornet (aka murder hornets) going head-to-head with a mantis and losing its head … as the greenish-brown beast quickly strikes, kills and starts chomping away.
The years-old video has resurfaced online on the heels of the alarming news that deadly “murder hornets” have arrived in the U.S. and were first spotted in Washington state this past fall.
As we reported … these giant Asian hornets are a threat to the bee population, as they tear up entire colonies by decapitating them and feeding the bodies to their young. Oh, and this is what one of them did to a mouse.

They also can kill humans with their venom — reportedly up to 50 people a year die from their stings — so it’s easy to understand why folks are freaking out about them … even if the executioner wasp is more dangerous.
Little did we know, we just need to sic praying mantises on their asses.
