## Caption

If you ever swallow a bug while hiking on the trail, riding a bike, or singing live on stage in front of thousands of people, don’t panic. In fact, just shake it off. If you spend enough time outdoors, it’s bound to happen. Eating a bug now and then probably won't be a problem for most. It’s not ideal for the bug (it was you, you’re the problem) but you should be able to digest most. 

Ever had a bug run in on the trail? They can be swift. Let’s hear it.
