My 15 Year old son saw a snapping turtle swim by in the lake and decided to see if he could catch it bare handed. Took him about 10 minutes and he had to dive for it and than avoid the claws and attempts by the turtle to chomp on him but he was ultimately successful.

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.
