Caution: When standing out in fields of tall grass, beware of potential ambushes.

For some reason unbeknownst to us, this little boy decided to stand in an overgrown field. However, while marveling at the fact that only his head could be seen over the tall grass, he let down his guard and was ambushed.

In a few blinks of an eye we saw some sort of creature lurking in the grass beside the boy.

The green blades parted in suspense as the unknown creature sprinted towards him, and within seconds he was pushed to the ground.

But have no fear -- laughter ensued from the boy and his camera man after they realized it was just their spunky dog coming to play.
