Took me a little while of scratching with a finger way back in my mouth to dislodge the stinger and in the end my mouth/throat swelled a fair bit and the taste of bee bum was gross.
Glad I am not allergic.

I could feel it crawling away and hurriedly got up and dropped my shorts trying to find what ever it was when it nailed me right next to the O-ring.
Still not sure if it was an ant or whatever but it hurt like hell for a good two weeks and I looked like I had a Baboons bum. Had to hose my pooter and wipe it with cotton wool balls for the first week at toilet paper killed!
RM Outback said:Climbed through a fence that had slack wires but I had a hot one (electric fence wire) around waist height. So me being smart and taking a short cut climbed through under the hot wire only to catch the bottom wire with the cuff of my strides all the while taking up the slack. The wire dislodged with full strain hitting me smack in the crown jewels with the instant pain I took a deep breath and my head went as red as a tomato while at the same time I arched my back attempting to contort the pain and then I felt the wack from the electrified wire burning my shoulder. No kidding I was rolling around for a while wishing the pain away and trying to calm my breathing once I got that under control I gingerly made my way to the car and drove up to the house and went straight to the fridge and drank it dry :beer:

RM outback your story reminded me of an event that happened to me when I was younger.
I was on a friends cattle farm in Albany and I was in desperate need of a leak. Being the young guy I was I decided that a patch of bracken ferns looked like a great spot to relieve myself. Well midway through going about my business I got an almighty surprise that dropped me on spot. It was like I had been hit in the balls with a cricket bat 10 times over. Yes I had found the electric fence that I had failed to see in my rush to go for a leak. My poor family jewels where black and blue for days later.
