It's that time of the year when all of those nasty, six legged, doubled winged beast from hell rise up to torture us and our sanity.

I am of course speaking about grasshoppers, which have seemed to appear overnight to invade our peaceful city. Now let me try to say this without seeming like a complete wimp, I DO NOT LIKE GRASSHOPPERS.

It's not so much that I'm scared of them, I just don't want one crawling up my arm or into my shirt, gross. All week I have left work only to walk outside and be jumped by a swarm of grasshoppers. Okay a swarm might be a bit of exaggeration, but you get the picture. As it turns out though, I'm not the only one who's a little uneasy around these horrible creatures. In fact, here's five videos of people who are way more scared of them than I am.

Now for the finale, you may have seen this video featured on Tosh.O but it only gets funnier every time you watch you, but be warned, being startled apparently causes you to curse like a sailor.
