Flicking a Tea Towel to kill a Fly mid-flight. Utterly decimated it, and the resulting SNAP woke my dog LOL.

 

 

 

Not once, but twice. Wish I'd videoed it.

Wouldn't you have to hold the phone with your foot to video it ? That I'd like to see, though you'd need to use your other foot to video yourself videoing yourself flicking a fly with a tea towel. I think.

I am not saying I am a superhero, though I would like to point out, no-one has ever seen me in the same room as Batman or Superman! :)

As someone who tends more to the Captain Underpants / Bananaman end of the spectrum, you're certainly my hero 😀

That's great news! Congrats. Something extra to celebrate at xmas time. Some of these processes can be the thing of nightmares.
