WATCH: Man tries to remove wasp nest with plastic bag, fails miserably

There are some jobs that are best left to the professionals.

And that was certainly the case when a local pastor in Brazil tried to remove a wasp nest from a tree armed with just a plastic bag and a set of ladders.

Hilarious footage shows the moment he heroically fails in his makeshift attempt after the nest was discovered in a backyard in São Gonçalo do Abaeté, Minas Gerais last month.

He can be seen tentatively approaching the nest as he climbs the ladders. He then quickly encloses the nest inside the bag but the wasps escape and begin stinging him.

To add insult to injury, as he runs away swinging the bag in pain, he manages to rip it open letting more angered wasps free.

The clip ends as he runs out of shot screaming.
