The transcript is a dialogue from a video where the host, Coyote Peterson, experiences the sting of a Japanese Giant Hornet for a documentary series. He describes his journey in the remote Tottori Prefecture of Japan, where he manages to encounter the hornet. He explains that the hornet is considered one of the largest stinging insects in the world, with a 6.25 millimeter stinger that injects a venom known as manderatoxin. This venom can destroy tissue and attack the nervous system of its victim, leading to potentially fatal outcomes.
The host expresses his nervousness before the sting, and describes the pain he experiences after the sting. He also mentions that over 30 people die every year in Japan from multiple stings, usually as a result of anaphylactic shock. However, he adds that a single sting from the hornet is not likely to be deadly.
The video concludes with Coyote Peterson stating that the Japanese Giant Hornet ranked as a four on the insect sting pain index, and considering it to be the most painful sting in the world at that moment. He also mentions that the next episode of the series will feature the sting of the executioner wasp, and asks the audience to stay tuned.
